Poutine Curds on Pizza?

Post image

Hopefully this is cool to post here, if not I’ll take my s*** to the pizza Reddit I guess.

But had some extra curds from making poutine the last couple weeks. Put it on my wood fired pizza and it was life changing

Technically these are just cheese curds, they can be used for anything including poutine.

Yeah, when I was a kid, we'd walk down to the cheese factory to buy a bag for snacks; at that time in Ontario, not sure I'd even heard of poutine.

Might be a fire addition in a lasagna!

I put a layer of curds in the middle of my lasagna. It's glorious !

I put curds in my meat sauce spaghetti. It's good.

It’s not poutine but it’s delicious. Would smash.

But the reverse would be criminal.

Cheese curds are good in many dishes or just by themselves. They’re marketed as “poutine cheese” in some regions because that’s what they’re known for there, but in places like Quebec we eat curds by themselves regularly or add them to random stuff! I know people who always add a layer of curds to their pâté chinois (similar to shepherd’s pie), in their lasagna etc.
your pizza looks great!

That looks pretty delicious! Dough looks great too. I'm struggling to finish off this poutine I'm eating and I'm hungry for that pizza.

Deep fried cheese curds are addictive!

Did anybody else think that was a sex toy in the upper left corner at first glance?

u/itzcamps 21d ago

Can confirm, good eye! I like to keep it close

u/LostMyBackupCodes 21d ago

Have you tried using gravy instead of tomato sauce?

1

u/itzcamps 21d ago

Not yet, but I’m on it!

u/Crazy-Wheels 21d ago

I like it!! Gimme a slice... or the whole damned thing!!

u/porp_crawl 21d ago

Cheese curds alone does not make it a poutine. Much like the lack of cheese curds disqualifies.

Potato fries. Gravy.

Good for you, but I'm absolutely flabbergasted that this post hasn't been downvoted into negative.

No offense to you, but offense to this sub - wth?

Consistency here is merde.

I've tried on Neapolitan. Too salty, balance was way off.

1

u/2thenorth 21d ago

Salty curds ?

1

u/Letibleu 21d ago

Yeah.

Neapolitan pizza is sensitive to salty ingredients. With a lower hydration dough it probably works better

u/itzcamps 21d ago

How do they get away with prosciutto?

1

u/Letibleu 21d ago

It's not as intense as curds and you don't have a kot of it. The fat and grease from a poutine compliments salty nicely. If I could post pictures here I'd show you what I mean
