Mh1$AgThS2 A mouthwatering wide- angle closeup of authentic Montreal poutine captured at the moment of perfect melt. Hand- cut russet potatoes—their edges crisp and golden, their interiors fluffy and white—glisten with a light sheen of oil. Cheese curds appear in extreme detail, their texture both smooth and rippled, caught in that magical moment of half- melt where they stretch into gooey strings when pulled apart. The gravy cascades in slow- motion over the composition, its surface reflecting warm amber light while steam rises in artistic curls against a backdrop of deep burgundy. Salt crystals and black pepper flakes are visible as tiny geometric sculptures catching the light like diamonds and obsidian. The entire composition celebrates Quebec's contribution to Canadian cuisine, rendered in a palette of golden browns, creamy whites, and rich umami browns.
