Poutine Dip & Beaujolais

Poutine is a classic Canadian comfort food where we smother fries in salty gravy and cheese curds (AKA ‘squeaky cheese’), and I turned it into dip! You have not experienced life until you’ve tried hot salty gravy embedded with deliciously melty cheese curds, scooped up with your favourite salty potato chips - SO GOOD.
What to Pair
I paired this reimagined Canadian classic with Beaujolais. This dip NEEDS a wine that will cleanse the palate between salty mouth coating bites, but that will also stand up to the richness of the beef gravy, and this light and crisp French red wine style does just that - especially with a bit of a chill on it! I highly recommend throwing it in the fridge for 20 minutes before opening it up!
