Another recipe adapted from my favorite cookbook – The Creative Cooking Course by C. Turgeon. I hadn’t made this in about 10 years before making it for friends recently. This is not only good hot, right out of the oven, but also cold the next day. I’ll admit that my prep time is approximate as I didn’t stop to watch the clock when I made it and does not include the time the dough is in the refrigerator. It takes a little work to prepare, but it’s certainly well worth it.
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.
great stick to your ribs meal for those cold winter nights. serve with mashed potatoes, carrots, mushy peas and lashings of gravy. my own recipe enjoy.
A traditional British steamed savoury pudding – fluffy dumping style suet pastry layered with tender and succulent braised beef steak – pure comfort food. Once you have prepared this, just let it steam quietly away in the background, whilst you get on with other things. Unmould this pudding at the table and serve it immediately with extra gravy, steamed seasonal greens and mounds of fluffy mashed potatoes. There is an urban myth in the UK, that men ask woman who can cook this delicious savoury pudding to marry them……..be warned…….be careful! Preparation time includes the cooking of the beef steak before the pudding is made and steamed. (This recipe comes from my family’s recipe collection – it was cooked regularly by my grandmother and my mum; the original recipe is written in pencil on a scrap of paper………it was like finding real treasure!)
This is a hearty soup that is always found in the kitchen of a coastal Belizen fishing village at least three times per week. Its easy to make and comes out great!
