Edmonton&#8217;s culinary Christmas scene is full of surprises, from hearty dishes that combat the winter chill to sweet treats that tempt your taste buds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Pierogis:<\/strong> These Eastern European-inspired dumplings are deeply rooted in Edmonton&#8217;s culinary culture. Typically stuffed with potato, cheese, or sauerkraut, they are either boiled or fried and served with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of crisp onions. These comforting bites are an excellent choice for vegetarians.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Butter tarts:<\/strong> These are a beloved Canadian dessert, especially during Christmas. The sweet, sticky filling is made with butter, sugar and eggs, nestled inside a flaky pastry shell. Some versions include raisins or pecans for added texture, creating a symphony of flavours in each bite.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Wild game:<\/strong> Reflecting Edmonton&#8217;s proximity to the wilderness, wild game often features in Christmas meals. You might find dishes like bison stew or venison roast on festive menus, providing a hearty, warming meal that embraces the spirit of Alberta.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Bannock:<\/strong> This traditional First Nations bread is a versatile component of many Edmonton meals. It&#8217;s often paired with local jams and preserves during Christmas or enjoyed alongside a steaming cup of hot chocolate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Tourti\u00e8re:<\/strong> A quintessential Christmas dish, this French-Canadian meat pie is rich with tradition. The filling, usually a blend of finely diced pork, veal or beef, is encased in a buttery, flaky crust. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Nanaimo bars:<\/strong> Named after a city in British Columbia, these no-bake bars are an Edmonton favourite at Christmas time. The triple-layer treat comprises a crumbly wafer base, custard-flavoured butter icing, and a topping of glossy melted chocolate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Split pea soup:<\/strong> A hearty and comforting dish often seen during the festive season is split pea soup. A dish with French and English Canadian roots is typically made with yellow split peas, vegetables, and ham or bacon. For a vegetarian version, simply skip the meat \u2014 the result is just as delicious.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Food at the Christmas Market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As you wander around the Yeg Xmas Market, you&#8217;re treated to an eclectic mix of enticing street food and festive treats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Poutine:<\/strong> A quintessential Canadian dish, poutine consists of crispy fries topped with squeaky cheese curds and smothered in a rich gravy. It&#8217;s a warming, hearty snack that embodies the comfort food ethos of a true Canadian winter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Smokies:<\/strong> These locally-made sausages are a staple at Edmonton&#8217;s outdoor events. Grilled to perfection and served in a bun with your choice of toppings, they are a hearty street food staple that&#8217;s hard to resist.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Perogies on the go:<\/strong> At the Edmonton Christmas Market, vendors sell these beloved Ukrainian-style dumplings as a handy street food snack. Stuffed with a variety of fillings and served with sour cream, they&#8217;re a delicious nod to Edmonton&#8217;s Eastern European heritage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Mini doughnuts:<\/strong> Nothing says festival food quite like mini doughnuts. Freshly fried and dusted with powdered sugar, these sweet, fluffy treats are a staple at Edmonton&#8217;s market stalls.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Mulled cider:<\/strong> To keep the chill at bay, pick up a cup of locally-produced mulled cider. This warming beverage, infused with traditional spices, is the perfect hand warmer as you browse the market stalls.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond local treats, the market also features a selection of international specialties that are synonymous with Christmas markets worldwide:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Bratwurst:<\/strong> An ever-popular German import, Bratwurst sausages are a common sight. Served in a bun with a generous helping of mustard, they&#8217;re a deliciously savoury snack to enjoy as you wander through the market.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Roasted chestnuts:<\/strong> Look out for stalls selling roasted chestnuts for a classic Christmas treat. The warming, nutty aroma is a sure sign of the festive season and provides a nutritious snack.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Stollen:<\/strong> This German Christmas bread from Dresden is a delicious sweet treat. Loaded with dried fruit, nuts, and a marzipan centre, a slice of Stollen perfectly accompanies a hot beverage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Churros:<\/strong> These Spanish sweet treats are a favourite at many Christmas markets. Deep-fried and dusted with sugar, they can be dipped in chocolate sauce for an extra indulgent snack.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to Buy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At the Christmas market in Edmonton, you&#8217;re treated to an eclectic selection of gift options that reflect the diverse cultural tapestry of the region.
