[I ate] poutine w/sautéed onions
Canadian poutine eater here.... IMO sadly there is no substitute for the curds. They are just texturally unique. It's quite important considering it's one of only three ingredients.
I know your pain though, I was living in the states for a bit and it was basically impossible to get good poutine. If I wanted it I had to make it myself, which meant a long trip to Tillamook to buy cheese curds from the source direct.
Ooh, paneer should be possible to source around here, I think.
Thanks for the suggestion!
