What dishes best represent Canada's history and culture?
Sounds delicious. What about butter tarts? Can you tell me more about those?
Sure! Butter tarts are a classic Canadian dessert that originated in Ontario. They are small pastry tarts filled with a mixture of butter, sugar, and sometimes raisins, nuts, or chocolate chips. The exact origin of butter tarts is unclear, but they have been a Canadian staple since the early 1900s. In 2013, the butter tart was officially declared a Canadian food icon by a national survey.
