    Title: Classic Quebec Poutine
    2 tb Balsamic vinegar
    in Hemmingford, PQ.

    Roslind and I slept in and skipped breakfast that morning so we
    never made it to that diner. But I have never encountered balsamic
    vinegar in the gravy anywhere else.

    There was a snatch-and-grabbit window service open air diner at our
    motel where I first discovered poutine. Tried it at some other venues,
    as well.

    My first encounter with poutine was on a cold and wet November day in
    Ottawa, in sight of the Capital buildings, from a cart type of
    operations. It was very good -- and given the day, very fitting and satisfying.

    Of course, one can freely substitute for the type of chicken, the type
    of rice and/or they type of beans. I would now use white rice and black
    beans.

    I'd, naaturally, use thighs. And ditch the Uncle Ben's in favour of REAL
    rice - cooked in my rice cooker.

    3 Canned chipotle chiles
    6 cl Garlic; minced
    1/2 ts Ground cumin
    1/2 ts Onion powder

    2 tb Butter

    Set oven @ 350┬║F/175┬║C.

    Place chicken in an ovenproof baking dish, and place in
    oven, bake for 25 minutes.

    Meanwhile, combine milk, canned chipotles, garlic,
    cumin, onion powder, and salt in a blender or food
    processor and puree until smooth. Heat butter and flour
