NOVA SCOTIA SCONES

On our trip to Eastern Canada, we came upon a lovely little Tea Room where they served scones the Scottish way. As soon as we got back home I made these scones for my husband, and he still raves about them...

NOVA SCOTIAN FOODS: TOP 10 ICONIC FOODS OF NOVA SCOTIA

From eatthistown.ca
Estimated Reading Time 8 mins
  • Lobster. Chosen By: Kelly Neil. Kelly Neil is a photographer and food stylist who develops recipes and creates visual narratives for clients in Halifax and beyond.
  • Hodge Podge. Chosen By: Michelle Doucette from East Coast Food Stories. East Coast Food Stories is a collection of visual and written stories that celebrate the way food connects us to our surroundings and each other.
  • Donair. Donair served open-faced at Revana Pizza. When Greek immigrants tried to introduce the gyro to Halifax in the early 70’s, the Nova Scotian palate was not receptive to the “exotic” flavours of lamb and tzatziki.
  • Scallops. Scallops at the Red Shoe Pub in Mabou. Digby is often touted as the “Scallop Capital of the World” because it has the largest inshore scallop fleet.
  • Oatcakes. Chocolate dipped oatcake from the Gingerbread Haus Bakery. Oats were the staple grain of northern Scotland, and early settlers to Nova Scotia brought their love for the humble oatcake with them.
  • Fish Cakes. Fish cakes at Cuisine Robicheau in Saulnierville. Fish cakes are a common item in all of Atlantic Canada. They are simple patties of salt cod and mashed potato, amplified by fresh herbs, onion or bacon fat.
  • Blueberries. The giant blueberry in Oxford, Nova Scotia! Nova Scotia was one of the world’s first commercial blueberry growing regions. It is the largest fruit crop and the official berry of the province.
  • Haddock. Pan-fried haddock at The Knot Pub in Lunenburg. While Newfoundlanders are cod people, Nova Scotians are haddock people (arguing is futile). Haddock is a sweeter, flakier fish that prefers deeper colder waters.
  • Pepperoni. Deep fried pepperoni at Maxwell’s Plum in Halifax. Max and Chris Kielbratowski immigrated to Nova Scotia from Poland and opened up delicatessans in the 50’s and 60’s specializing in naturally smoked meats.
  • Rappie Pie. Rappie Pie from Cuisine Robicheau in Saulnierville. Also called “râpure”, this Acadian dish is “pie” only by the loosest definition. Grated potato is pressed to remove most of the moisture, reconstituted with broth, and baked to give it crispy edges.
