Cornish New Potato Salad

The warm climate of Cornwall produces tender young vegetables earlier than other parts of the U.K. For a luxury touch, use clotted cream instead of double cream. Dress the potatoes while still warm, even if you are serving them cold, as this allows the flavours to be absorbed.

Cornish Pasties

This is a recipe that comes from ‘The Cookery Year’. I haven’t made it yet, but it looks a very authentic recipe. The pasty was the midday meal for the Cornish tin miners.

My Favorite Cornish Pasties

The Upper Peninsula of Michigan became the home of many Cornish emigrants. As a result many Michiganders both living in the upper and lower penisulas grew up eating cornish pasties. My favorites are made with ground beef and with carrots instead of rutabegas. This is the recipe which is made the most often near my home. Some folks enjoy this cold…I love it best smothered in rich beef gravy. Some folks also like it served with a white Sausage Gravy. Some local churches actually make these once a year as a fund raiser. They offer them to eat on the premises and also take orders for take outs. They almost always sell out with some folks coming too late to get any.
