    Just for the records...i am writing from Central Mexico, some 250 year. Ago Britsh miners came to Mexicos' Hidalgo province to mine silver. When they head back to England they left the Pasty tradition which we mexican call "Paste"..today eating Pastes is a stablished tradition in Central Mexican states...hope you find this useless fact intetesting...take care.

      @@thewestcountrykitchen6843 You should check out the Cornish Pasty Association for the true definition of a Cornish Pasty. . A true Cornish Pasty contains skirt beef, swede, potato and onion only. No carrot. You apparently can’t call any pasty Cornish and sell them as such anywhere in the world now, unless the pasties have been made in Cornwall and with those items only, as the Cornish pasty now has a protected status. I love lots of other kinds of pasties too, but they’re not officially the traditional Cornish pasties. They’re just Cornish style pasties. I love ham, cheese & leek pasties as well for a change, but if you make them yourself, you can add whatever you personally like of course. I’m sure yours taste just as good though, but for me, no carrot necessary and you won’t see a genuine pasty in Cornwall with carrot. The Cornish pasty is perfect as it is, just as it has always been.

  • @leetbawden4480
    @leetbawden4480 Рік тому +9

    The pasty originally made from anything you could lay your hands on. Now they say no carrots or peas. Great grandmother would have loved to have such luxuries. Rabbit or pigeon was regularly in a pasty. Miners didn't earn very much back in the day.

      I have an always said this. I doubt every household in Cornwall back in the day had the same exact ingredients for their pasties. I imagine they used what ever meat and veggies they had on hand and their sons and husbands did it complain lol.

    @jorbharris8097 2 роки тому +7

    Two cents' worth from Canada. I was lucky to have lived in a Cornish village as an evacuee 1943-45. My foster mum made the best pasties I have ever tasted. I visited her in 1985 and she fed me pasty. My taste memory said it was just the same. And NO carrot! For years I have been trying to duplicate that taste but I can't quite get it. The swede we get here is tasteless so I sub a half with purple turnip, it helps.
    Someone commented that skirt meat is cheap. Here, it can only be had from a small meat processor company as it is a prime export to Mexico where it is used in a traditional dish, I'm told. Needless to say, that reflects in the price I have to pay for this particular cut. Definitely not cheap! I'll look for your traditional recipe, Charlie.

    Please don't take offence, I have just a couple of filming and editing suggestions to take your videos to the next level. A simple jump cut will do, avoid the fade to black transition. Drop the music level, it shouldn't swamp the voice over. Check that you're focusing on the main thing you're trying to film. Also look into colour grading and correction. The pasty looks awesome by the way and I will definitely be making it.

    The worst thing about Cornish pasties, is not the carrot. It’s when you buy an ‘award winning’ (which they all are?) pastie and the filling is cooked outside the pastie, to a slush, then put in the pastry and cooked. Can honestly say, I’ve never had a good pasty, in Cornwall.

    Learn what one inch is: you said to chop the vegetables into 1" cubes and proceeded to chop less than half an inch. Same with the pastry thickness which you want 1cm thick!! then you rolled it less than 1/2 cm. Such exaggerations are normally reserved for penis length!

    that's not a Cornish Pasty. A Cornish Pasty doesn't NEED carrots, and the cut of meat is Skirt or Blade, not rump.

  • @iankinver1170

    Have any of these people ever seen a Cornish person actually make a pasty? So many errors. Do not put carrots in a pasty. Use beef skirt, or chuck, not rump. Use white pepper, not black (this is essential). Do not add a stock cube. Do not pre mix your ingredients, but layer them in individually. Heavily season with salt and pepper. Cook at a high heat for ten minutes to set the pastry, then turn down to about 170 for another 45 minutes or so to cook the pasty slowly. When done, leave to rest under a clean tea towel for about 10 to 15 minutes. This allows the steam to condense back into the pasty to form the gravy. Don't eat beans with it!! The only really good thing about this recipe was the nice tidy crimp.

      I am afraid you are mistaken, sounds to me like you are referring to the more modern incarnation of the Cornish Pasty, This Particular Pasty is made in the spirit of the Cornish Minors of the 15/1600s who actually invented it, specifically as a vessel for any left overs they had in the larder... for hundreds of years they would have been filled with all sorts! sounds like you are passionate about the topic so it may pay for you to re educate yourself on the history of the Cornish Pasty, but I appreciate your feedback, you are absolutely not wrong in your opinion, take care and have a wonderful day 🙂

      I was making the point that the pasty known as a "Cornish" pasty is a regionally and culturally protected food, with very specific ingredients. which can be traced back about 200 years from the present incarnation.

    Cornish pasties are protected under British and European law. To use the word Cornish they have to be made in Cornwall. They have to use specific ingredients, beef, swede, potato,onion, salt and pepper. The ingredients must be raw when they go into the pastry. Carrots don’t come into the equation but add them if you want and simply call it a meat pasty. I imagine people who think it’s fine to change a protected recipe also think it’s fine to make fizzy wine with grapes and gin and call it champagne🤦🏻‍♂️

    You used the wrong cut of beef, it should be skirt, and you put carrot in it. This may be a pasty, but it's not a Cornish pasty. As with all regional named foods, they have specific methods and ingredients. You can sell this as a pasty, but would not legally be allowed to call this a Cornish pasty if you chose to sell it.
