#7 – Slow Cooker Ham with Beer and Maple Syrup

Glazed Ham

Glazed Ham

Ham is an all-the-time food across Canada, though it’s especially a feature of holiday meals. Generally glazed in something sweet, our version is extra Canadian, with maple syrup and beer. Every Canadian pretty much loves those two things. All that’s missing from this dish is a hockey game to watch on TV.

Tapioca is a starchy substance extracted from the root of the cassava plant (also called manioc and yuca), which grows in tropical countries. The starch is transformed into small granules or pearls of various sizes, colours and glossiness. Having fallen out of fashion for a while, tapioca is now being resurrected as “bubble tea”, a refreshing, colourful and trendy drink, originally from Taiwan, which has recently invaded major North American cities. Here, we are proposing a pudding, as it is the tradition in many quebecois families.

Regarding ‘Shepherds Pie’ in the UK, Shepherds Pie is traditionally made with lamb. Cottage Pie is made with beef, Corn is not usually added, that was new to me, on arrival in Canada. I have loved ALL the traditional Quebecoise recipes, very similar to ours but without the added Maple Syrup! Tapioca pudding was a favourite for school meals when I was a kid and I still make it. I love this site, thank you.
