- The bullies. The name-callers. The people who feel the need to threaten over a simple recipe for a meat pie. A MEAT PIE!!! Have once again ruined the comment section - I don't want to read and moderate the comments anymore; so they are shut off.
I'm tired - so tired of the pundits arguing about 'Authentic' and basing their claims on 'what they've heard' rather than on actual historical research through cookbooks. While it's true this recipe isn't from Cornwall, it is fairly representative of recipes in Cornish cookbooks from this time period and earlier. Those of you arguing about how 'Cornish Pasty' are now protected by law; well that's fairly recent (2011) and was fought for by a group of commercial bakers trying to protect their financial interests in the EU and not the actual historical recipe. Yes these are small - but they represent what and how much working class and lower people ate in this time period. Excess is a fairly recent phenomenon.
