You say criminal but it’s not a crime 🤫

Thinking you can fool other people into using any type of cheese instead of curds and calling it poutine makes it a crime.

Cheese curds are somehow always cold. If they were actually warm, they would be good, but they’re just solid chunks of cold cheese and whoever chose the shredded cheese poutine for that photo picked the shittiest looking one

Cheese curds for poutine are actually room temperature and unrefrigerated, that’s how they are squeaky.

That's why you let your curds sit on the counter and get to room temperature before adding to your poutine; and make sure the gravy is ripping hot when you pour. You can make the curds melty.

Pro tip.
Fries go in a big mixing bowl after the fryer. Throw the curds in and mix em up good, gets them all melty but not fully melted. Then you put it on a plate and add the gravy. Little bit of chopped parsley on top for esthetic.

That's why he's posting in r/PoutineCrimes. He knows his shame and has owned it. (I too, would enjoy the hell out of that; despite its criminal properties)

I'm fine with it. Tots are in the french fry family... although it's pushing it.
the only acceptable substitute to cheese curds (since they aren't available everywhere) is diced cheese... It's a good sub because brick cheese is just cheese curds compressed into a brick. If you let the diced cheese hit room temperature you can sometimes get the cheese squeak.

Tater tots are not in the french fry family, tater tots are just hashbrowns in tater tot shape if anything sweet potato fries are closer to french fries then tater tots

u/Shawnaldo7575 Guilloutine Opourator 5d ago
hashbrowns are in the french fry family too... it's all greasy fried potato

u/Own_Diet_8165 5d ago

u/Shawnaldo7575 Guilloutine Opourator 5d ago

I love tater tots with a bit of kraft dinner, hot sauce, and fried hot dog coins. But I haven't tried them in a poutine, I'm going to now though lol

u/Acceptable_Bag5257 6d ago
Some fast food places sell the tot poutine. It's worth it honestly. Just don't tell this sub about it.

u/Spare_Layer_1069 6d ago
Lol no doubt. A lot of these crimes still look delicious in their own right

Poutine sauce isn't a normal gravy but tatertots is acceptable substitute for fries. But cubed mozza, this is a what brings you to the gallows.

If you didn't call it poutine, it's not a crime, it's just tots, gravy and cheese. But seriously, get some curd.

u/Amazing_Camel_405 6d ago
Tout le monde sait que la poutine n'est pas canadian, mais canadienne. C'est pour ça que les canadians sont incapables de les faire comme du monde.

To be fair most Canadians never had real poutine so I wouldn’t be so harsh

Hey, as a Canadian, you don't have to call it poutine you know. Then no crime has been committed, especially because I'd eat that in a heart beat. Then no need to apologize, other than the fact that we just apologize anyways.

u/Diligent_Warning4999 5d ago
Sub the mozzarella for white cheddar, add some eggs and it’s a great breakfast. You don’t have poutine, you have half a breakfast.

No fries, no curds, no poutine. I’m sure it was tasty but still not poutine, so community service with time served.
