Pendarvis House Cornish Pasty

The Pendarvis House is located in Mineral Point, WI, settled by miners from Cornwall, England who were brought there to work in the lead mines in the 19th century. The pasty was a favorite lunch dish of the miners as it could be carried to work in their pockets and eaten at their pleasure, not worrying about it leaking into their pockets. This makes one large pasty which can be sliced up to feed 6-8.

Mahogany Glazed Cornish Hens

Conish hens are not just any small chickens, but a special, plumper hybrid developed in the late fifties. They are often sold frozen, but can be thawed overnight in the fridge. In found this recipe in Good Housekeeping magazine. I have not tried this recipe, but I’m posting it for safe keeping.
