Ah! You’re referring to Canadian Cheese Soup, a rich, creamy soup popular in parts of Canada, often served as a comforting starter. It typically features:
- Cheese: Usually cheddar or a blend of Canadian cheeses for smooth meltiness.
- Base: Milk, cream, or sometimes a roux (flour + butter) for thickening.
- Vegetables: Commonly onions, carrots, and celery for flavor and texture.
- Seasonings: Mustard, black pepper, and occasionally garlic or herbs.
- Optional additions: Bacon, potatoes, or even beer for extra depth.
It’s hearty, velvety, and pairs wonderfully with crusty bread or a grilled cheese sandwich.
