Cretons

For those of you that had the chance to live or visit Quebec, there is a thing we Frenchies love to put on our toasts. It’s call cretons. Don’t be thrown away by their look and what’s in it; it is truly delicious.

1 pound (450 g) of ground pork
1 cup of breadcrumbs
1 grated or puréed onions
Salt and pepper
I add a little bit of garlic salt (garlic one day, garlic everyday!)
2 ground cloves
A dash of cinnamon
1 cup of milk
1 cup of chicken broth

How to?



Put all the ingredients in a large pan. Let simmer for an hour or a little bit more a low heat. I like them very creamy so I process the mixture in my food processor so they have a creamy texture. (You can skip this step if you don’t mind the “Crumble”). Pour in a plate and let refrigerate.






Spread all over your toasts and yummy!
