Taste of my childhood - Pouding chômeur
Pouding chômeur is one of those foods that is not widely known outside of Quebec. It is very sweet and easy to make, like so many recipes of yesteryears. This recipe is the one I grew up eating. Always a family favorite, and was usually completely gone by the next day. I hope you enjoy this taste of my childhood and share in the comments if you have your own version.

    What a great recipe! I’m looking forward to trying this - May West was always my go-to snack cake at the Provi-Soir (dépanneur) near home, and I didn’t get them often, so I’d nibble the chocolate shell off and then eat the cake after😅 They certainly beat Little Debbie and Hostess cakes hands down! Do you remember Pique? They were like May West but oblong, not sure what made them different, maybe the cake? Maybe a fluffier filling? Anyway, thank you for the recipe, and à la prochaine!🙋🏻‍♀️

    Hello Nathalie. Your dish looks great! I'm Djiboutian and this is a solid 8/10. If you would like to try my way, add more tomato paste (we like it red over here), finely chop all the vegetables and just blend your tomatoes. Use Basmati rice to have long, fluffy rice. Have some vegetable soup and some green chutney on the side when serving. To enjoy it the Djiboutian way, take a big bowl of soup, add your rice and chutney. Yummy. Hope you'll give it a try 😉

    This recipe is pretty close to my grandmothers. She’d simmer it in milk instead of water and told me to add more milk if it became too much like taco meat. She also used Panko instead of bread. I make it every year for the Grey Cup.

    I have a French Canadian cookbook from the 60s. The cake batter used is called Pâte Type à Pouding. It has to be very thick so it won’t easily incorporate into the syrup. This batter is used for putting on top of fruit before baking. It’s not used as a stand alone cake. Yours looks nice and thick as it should be. My understanding of the name’s origin is called Unemployed Man’s Cake. I don’t know how true this is. Using maple syrup and heavy cream might be an updated version as it is more expensive. I encourage you and others to go to America’s Test Kitchen here on YT and check out their version, it’s a great episode. They explain the science of how it works and IMO, it’s also an improved version. Wonderful childhood memories of making and eating this cake. BTW, your French accent is perfect.

    • @francofoods8075

    *_Creton, when I was young (In the 80s) always came with a 1 inch thick layer of fat or lard; which some people, like my dad, would mix into the creton, while others like me would cut out. Nowadays, all the recipes I find have no layer of fat on it (Even store bought creton seems to have gone fatless). I would like to make that true old style creton with that thick layer of fat because I’d like to offer it as a gift to my dad one last time before he leaves us: Any idea as to how to achieve such a full fat creton?_*

    • @francofoods8075
      @francofoods8075 8 місяців тому

      Hi! Yes. I know exactly what you mean. This is just a theory. However, I believe it had to do with how lean the ground pork we find in the grocery store is today. This, again, my opinion only, why creton and tourtière are more dry than when I was a kid. What I've done at times is either a) get a fat cut of pork and adked the butcher to grind it for me. But, not all places will do that. Or, add some lard to the ground pork. That seems to work fairly well and adds a creamy texture as well. Hope this is helpful. Please let me know how it goes. À la prochaine!

    • @gottagift
      @gottagift 6 місяців тому

      Be sure to use whole milk. It will not hurt the recipe if you drown the pork(cover) with milk. It all reduces down in the time needed to simmer it. Can also get a good thickening with store bough bread crumbs. Either way, your dad is sure to love the treat as is. This stuff is like gold in the Franco household.

    In Manchester NH My memeres both made pork pies, they were similar but not the same. The recipe I use is more like my memere Boissonneault's (from the Thetford area) recipe she use cinamon, clove and ginger 1/4 tsp to 2 pounds of pork and finely diced potatoes. My memere Gingras used allspice (she was from Lacolle). Side note we called it toute que (toot k) not sure of the spelling.

      I do love the variety when it comes to tourtière. I've heard others call it tookay or the like. I am also in the Manchester area. Make sure to check out FACNH.com. We love meeting new people 😊

    Just tried this recipe. Didn't work! Need to let the mixture cool down before beating. For the sugar to crystalize a little. In your video, looks like it did, but you shouldn't beat as soon as you take it off the heat.

      Sorry it did not work. I've always beat right away, as did my mother. I know it can be tricky. Did it reach the correct temperature? I've had times where it was either too hot or not enough, so did not turn out. Upside, it still tasted delicious. Let me know if you try again. Cheers!

      @@francofoods8075 The taste is awesome. But it never really set. Feels more like a caramel. I will try different temperature next time!

      @@fatlazycabs1688 I have had trouble in the past. I found that getting a good thermometer helps. Since I tend to overcook, that might be a redeaming grace in this case. LOL

    I am also Acadian (Thibodeau). I live in Faribault. MN. This recipe is awesome. Pierre Thibodeau was my 9x Great Grandpa but he was one of the originals to Acadia Grande-Pre.

    I remember making this as a kid decades ago. We didn't use ground pork but pork shoulder braised on the stove which when cooked we would cool it slightly and cut it up into chunks and put through the meat grinder attachment on our stand mixer. (My job.) We didn't use bread, but saltine crackers got ground in as the thickener, then spiced the meat in the bowl and put it up in pound containers. Cretons is the best thing that ever happened to toast.
