Flipper pie, also known as seal flipper pie,[1] is a traditional Eastern Canadian meat pie made from harp seal flippers.[2][3][4] It is similar to a pot pie in that the seal flippers are cooked with vegetables in a thick sauce and then covered with pastry.[2][5][6] It is specific to the province of Newfoundland and Labrador[2][3][4][6][7] and primarily eaten in April and May, during the annual seal hunt.[8] Although in the past, seal flippers were usually acquired directly from the boats that were used for the seal hunt (since they were considered a by-product of the seal fur trade), today they are usually purchased in grocery stores.[9] Seal meat has been described as tasting like rabbit or dark meat chicken, and fans of its flavor tend to be people who grew up eating it.[10]
History
Flipper pie has been prepared and eaten during Lent and the annual seal hunt since at least 1555.[3][7]
