Cretons is a forcemeat-style pork spread containing onions and spices, and its fatty texture resembles French rillettes. Recipes vary, but traditional preparation covers ground pork shoulder in milk or water, seasons it with onions and spices that nearly always include ground cloves, and simmers it until the liquid has cooked off. It is then chilled until firm and eaten on toast as part of a traditional Quebec breakfast.
