Flipper pie is a seriously acquired taste and is usually saved for Good Friday (if it's made at all). Its full name is seal flipper pie, so that should clue you into the meat used as the filling. To make it, cooks traditionally coat seal meat in flour and fry it before adding it to a pie with onions, pork fat and root vegetables. This unique dish hails from Newfoundland and Labrador and is normally served with a dash of Worcestershire sauce.
