How to Make Cornish Pasties - Geoff Wells

How To Make Cornish Pasties The Official Recipe Yes there is an official Cornish pasty recipe and it is included here along with a US English translation. By European law this is the only pasty that can be called a Cornish Pasty and even then only if it is made in Cornwall. So, unless you happen to live in Cornwall, you will just have to call it something else. If you insist on calling it a Cornish Pastry and one day two burly tin miners with strange accents show up on your doorstep, all I can say is, "You were warned!" My mother's pasty recipe was different so I included that as the Unofficial Cornish Pasty Appetizers. But there is so much more you can do, and I have done, with the pasty idea that I thought you might like to try some of the variations I've come up with over the years. Vegetarian Pasty Cheese, Mushroom and Leek Ham, Swiss Cheese and Asparagus Sausage Pasty Piza Pasty Asian Pasty Jerk Chicken Pasty Peach & Walnut Pasty Bumbleberry Pasties Banana & Chocolate Pasty "Banana Split" Pasty Apple and Walnut Pasty Just to make sure my pasty recipes can be enjoyed anywhere in the world I have included a table of international measurement equivalents.
