Pasty anyone? How I make a traditional Cornish Pasty
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 เม.ย. 2020
- I can trace my Cornish family back to the 17th century, with miners, farmers, bakers and esquires being among my ancestors. Andrew's family has a long tradition of mining in Cornwall too.
I used to make pasties with my Mum's Mum, or my Nanny as I used to call her. She chose 'Nanny' because she thought 'Grandma' made her sound old! My Mum also makes pasties in the same way that her Mum did.
In today's video, we share my family's method of making a traditional Cornish pasty. You will hear of variations of the recipe that have been passed down through different families and this video is not meant to be a categorical method, just how our family makes a pasty.
Ingredients Makes 8 medium sized pasties (approximately!)
For the pastry:
20oz strong white bread flour
10oz margarine
some water, about half a cup
For the video I made two batches of pastry
For the pasty:
1lb beef skirt
4 large potatoes, cut irregularly
1 small turnip, cut irregularly
1 medium onion, finely cut
salt and pepper to season,
1 egg beaten for glazing and 'glueing'
Equipment
scales
mixing bowl
pastry brush
Several baking trays, greased and lined with baking parchment
Please watch the video for the method.
In this video I made 3 large and 6 medium pasties. I made two batches of pastry.
For medium pasties:
The bowl that I cut around measured 7.5 inches or 19 cm. For a medium pasty bake for 20 minutes on 200 degrees C, reducing the heat to 180 degrees C for a further 20 minutes, until golden brown.
For large pasties:
I used a plate measuring 9 inches, or 23cm. To bake a large pasty, place in the oven at 200 degrees C for 20 minutes, turn the oven down to 180 degrees C for a further 40 minutes, until golden brown.
NB Our oven is older and may not get up to temperature, so keep an eye on your pasties!
If you make a pasty, we would love to know how you got on, post a picture to our facebook page!

Cornish Pasty, the undisputed king of all pies. Thank you for keeping it real!
Birthday Pasty! My family came from Cornwall in the 1890s (I think) and mined in the US, Upper Peninsula of Michigan (Marquette) before later settled in Ishpeming. My grandma taught me how to make pasties ❤️ my grandpa told me that they wrapped hot pasties made that morning in a towel, stuck them in their jacket / cover all to keep warm so early in the morning, and they were warmed by body heat until lunch! Also sometimes they reheated by placing on a shovel over coals. He drove horse teams when he was too young to mine, worked for loggers... Then mined copper. Life in Marquette, back then...my grandmother loved to tell me stories like how they lived in a cabin and couldn't afford glass windows, so had waxed paper, and laughed recalling snow coming in! Your video Made me cry over missing her and her pasties, too! ❤️ I love these and made them for decades. It was always my requested birthday dinner. When my grandma was very ill with cancer, I made pasties for her...bitter sweet memories. Thank you for this video.
Ps
I forgot entirely but you saying individual ones had our initial in it in case (I didn't like onions)
My birthday is this Friday, 1/29, I will absolutely make pasties!
PSS. We called that tool a pastry cutter - I still use my grandma's
Thank you for your comment and I really enjoyed reading about your memories of pasties in your family, I hope you make some soon, Sarah :)
I made them with 2 pie crusts from our family foods distributer and a roll of grands bisquits mix the 2 and kneaded it, turned out amazing no need to make a dough, I made reg bland ones, and one's with worsteshire sauce, with chopped fine sirloin and hamburger little meat, and a couple with jamaican jerk sauce turned out awesome and easy...
Great idea, to give us a recipe instead of a walk. Still holding true to your Cornish values, yet observing all the isolation requirements, too.
A perfect fit for these times! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails Ebay has them listed as Pastry Blender
Cracking video 4 years on! Sarah, you cook the way my mum did - it’s not guesswork, there’s an art to it, that’s what gives the food its magic! Pasties looked great - even the gluten free one (I have the same issue and the crumbly pastry is always a challenge). I love Andrew’s doggie voice-overs (hilarious!!!) and boyish enthusiasm for Birthday Pasties. I enjoyed the video as much as you enjoyed eating the pasties. Hope you all had fun making the video and enjoying the Pasties. Lovely to see the doggies having their Pasty treat! Now I’m craving a Cornish Pasty!
The first thing i buy when I go to Cornwall! They looked gorgeous.😀
Thank you! Sarah :)
Thats exactly how you make it. Well done.. cheers from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
I remember when all mum’s cakes were baked in tins lined with margarine and butter wrappers.
They look glorious 😋
Happy memories of cornish holidays last in st ives in 2019 miss cornwall very much perfect place to be beautifull relaxing peacefull very friendly too love it mick xx
Love you guys, and I love Cornish pasties, I’m going to try to make some. Yummy
Hope you are successful and enjoy! Send a photo on Facebook! Sarah :)
Roll on the next pasty lockdown!
Thank you.
I'm from Shropshire, we call it swede too. love, love,love walks and recipes carry on my sweeties
Nice!
Brilliant idea..
Thank you! Cheers! Sarah :)
Thanks so much for doing pasties. We are living overseas at the moment and missing our pasties so much. You guys are awesome!
Our pleasure! Hope you have a go! Sarah :)
Oh my Heavens, I am so glad I am not the only one who gives a voice to my animals😂😂it is so much fun to only imagine what they are thinking lol! This video couldn’t have come at a better time , I need a lot of positivity and uplifting activities right now, as I just lost my mom yesterday to a long battle with cancer, you are such a blessing right now !Thank you for taking the time to do this video, Lots of happiness and health your way , Lori
You poor thing! Love to you and thinking of you, Sarah
Wow great recipe I’ll have a go myself!
Hope you enjoy! Sarah :)
They look delicious! Really enjoyed the video. Thanks!
Bettina from Connecticut
Thanks for watching! Sarah :)
Hi guys,awesome video,I love ❤️ eating Cornish pasties ,when I visit Cornwall in the summer,stay safe and carry on cooking those tasty pasties ,
You're welcome and thanks for watching! Sarah :)
Fantastic video thanks 😊 x
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you so much for all your lovely videos. I can't tell you much they have helped hubby and I through this awful time. I have bought a pastry blender like the one that you use and what an amazing tool! I have always wondered why cornish pasty pastry tasted so different to other pastries, but now I guess it must be the use of bread flour instead of plain! Your videos are amazing, keep up the good work!
You are so welcome! And I hope you enjoy your pasties! Sarah :)
This was fun to see how you make pasties. My Mom made them one way and my cousin in Cornwall made them completely different from Mom. You are so right, every house has their own way. Lovely pasties Sarah. So glad you show how to cut the potato, that's a great tip, makes better pasties than diced. Thanks for sharing. Take good care both of you.
Hope you enjoy your pasties and if you make some, post a photo on Facebook! Sarah :)
Love your home video. Do some more!
More to come! We will be at home for another few weeks so keep watching... Sarah :)
Wife just made pasties to your recipe ooo yes... As we say in Wales 'Tidy' with a pint of 'Brains Dark'
Nice one! Sarah :)
Makes me want a pasty!
Great video. I enjoyed a bit of this and splash of that. lol
Glad you enjoyed it, and yeh, not a precise cook! Sarah :)
Andrew you are a lucky man to have a lovely lady like Sarah.
Loved the lesson. We call that a pastry blender in the US, that springy looking thing. In Michigan here, pasties are also very common, especially in the Upper Peninsula, because of all the mining done years ago, just like in Cornwall.
Even though too many people in the US are not being cautious and complaining about the self-isolating, my husband and I - and really, most people - are being sensible; its nice to see other countries are indeed handling things well.
I'm glad you guys are doing well and keeping safe!
I love the idea of pasties being made in the US, it's great! Sarah :)
Wow home made Pasty I bet Andrew approved!! Stay safe looking forward to when you are able to do more trails!!
We are missing the walking too! Our freedom to go anywhere is so precious, something I will never take for granted again! Sarah :)
I know this is an older video but I just watched; I loved this!!! I'm in the US and there is a town in my state called Cornwall. It's a bit of a drive but I might have to go there to see if they have pasties.....yummy!
So cool! Sarah :)
Enjoy your videos. ✌️🇺🇸
Thanks 👍Sarah :)
Yummy yum yum. Love a Cornish pasty. When I used to visit Cornwall on the last day I'd buy a box of 10 to take home.
Sounds great! Good plan! Sarah :)
One word....Yum. Nuff said! x J x
Well summed up! Sarah :)
Me and wife and kids love a Cornish pasty. They're not cheap, but the best, especially from Cornwall. We went in 2019, and stayed at Perran Sands.I'll get my wife to make these now, thanks.
I hope she has fun! They are yummy! Sarah :)
Bloody Good Job! I was looking to explain to my wife this layering method which I prefer. Premixing the ingredients is lazy and gives a uniform filling. Your way is 1000% more interesting to eat! Pity the top chefs on TH-cam were not taught by you! Thanks for the effort making the video. I think pasties are gonna be in the oven next week. Thank you. Be Well!
Watching from Australia 🇦🇺
Your pastry tool is called a pastry cutter ,
I will be making these delishes Cornish pasty's tomorrow , great cooking ...
I love your& your husband down to earth style
They look fantastic, sadly no Cornwall this year, thanks for posting.
Loved this lesson on making pasties! I lost my power yesterday due to heavy winds and had to throw out my perishables! Power back on. Another new day moving forward. So glad to see your video upon waking up this morning. Needing cheering up! Thank you lovely couple!🥣🥟(I think this emoji is an empanada) We need a pasty emoji! Cheers! Diane
Oh no! Glad to hear its all back and that we cheered you up! I think you may be right about the emoji! Sarah :)
Scrumptious . Unfortunately I'm low carb only as a diabetic in remission . Thanks for your cheery presentation .
J C There are recipes for keto Cornish pasties online which are low carb.No potato in them!There are some videos on here,too!!
Space Llama thank you. Will check it out
Thank you Sarah for keeping my request.
@@JC-yc7of There's one recipe that I am going to try everydaylowcarb.co.uk/2018/01/13/low-carb-cornish-pasty/
Hallo Sarah and Andrew, stumbelt over your wonderful Channel...Great, very lovely to show us the Treasures of Cornwall 👍👍👍
❤❤❤ Thank you so much for showing this yummy Pasty, i will try it myself.....i have visited Cornwall many Years ago and parts of Devon...wasn't as popular and crowded then as it is today, but for me its one of the most beautiful Places in Europe....
Thank you 🤗🤗🤗
Dagmar from Germany ❤
Our pleasure! And I hope you make it over here soon! Sarah :)
In Canada we call that a pastry blender. It's a great tool! I love your pasty making video.
just eaten my pasty .made 4..thank you .would provide a picture but cant attach one.
Wonderful! no pictures here but we are on Facebook so perhaps you could post there?!? Sarah :)
They looked good! Thanks for the recipe. I will be sure to try them.....if I can get flour!
Hope you enjoy! Although the supermarkets are not stocking flour, we have found a source locally of flour, our bakery; they put a kg in a bag and away you go! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails Thanks for the tip!
Proper ansome!!!!!
Praber jab
Lovely job, and your memories are the same as mine regarding initialing, hehe. Glad you mentioned the gravy/juice from using skirt beef, that's the real deal. The turnip you have is a swedish turnip, hence the common name Swede. I'm sure you know that but for other viewers, a Turnip is white and generally smaller. Thanks for the videos, I thoroughly enjoy your uploads and the both of you.
I've enjoyed a bought "Cornish" pasty from our Coventry pasty shop in the city centre. Very passable. I've had a lot worse in Cornwall.
Do you see what you're doing to me?
A butchers in St Columb Maj, did beautiful pasties.
Times past, but you both bring it alive.
They looked delicious Sarah - well done. John is now dribbling!!! Vinegar - John says that is sacrilege! I never have success with gluten-free flour, but it is useful for brick making and laying paving. It was lovely to see your two little boys again. Take care xx
Totally agree! Sarah :)
I've tried this recipe and method a couple of times and they've all turned out superb! Not bad for a Devonian, eh? Ha,ha :-) Gotta love Kernow.
Fantastic! Sarah :)
I can imagine being sat eating one of those in the garden with a chilled Cornish cider. Perfick!
We will be taking some out on a walk and enjoying! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails If it has Orange flesh it is a Swede, White flesh is a Turnip and normally smaller. Cornish Pasty because they originated from the Tin Mines in Cornwall. They had a massive crimp which the Miners would hold the Pasty and eat the middle part. This was because in Tin Mining the Ore has traces of Arsenic in it so they discarded the crimp to stop themselves getting Arsenic Poisoning. Some people say they did it to feed the Knockers (Cornish Tin Mine Fairies). As the Tin Mines closed the Miners went over seas to Mine Coal instead so the crimp was reduced. There are European Legally Registered Recipe as to what goes into a Cornish Pasty and how they should be made.
@@CornishWalkingTrails Yet again you are wrong, EU regulations state that Plain Flour, Butter and Lard. (Lard is actually made from Pig Fat). Beef Fat is used to make Dripping or Suet. I must say you are doing better than most people as you layered the ingredients, The only thing I do different is I sprinkle a little flor over the Meat but what you have failed to do is add knobs of Butter over the top of the Meat to help make the Gravy. They used to take a long time to cook as they were cooked on a Low temperature for a long time. My mum used to cook them in a Rayburn or Range
I’m going to give this a try for the first time later, unfortunately I don’t have skirt so will use steak and due to shortage of flour we have ready made - fingers crossed and thanks for sharing and inspiring x
Great video!
Have to say thats the way I make 'em too but with more pepper in them (I'm not Cornish btw - I'm from 'ampshire)
I like white turnip in my pasty as they are a naturally a bit 'peppery'.
Your pastry crimping was pretty good too!
You both sounded very Cornish in this video, your accents came through quite strongly -having watched many of your videos, this was the first time I really noticed the Cornish burr.
There is an excellent pasty shop in Newlyn where my friends live.
Your videos are superb and should be shown on mainstream tv!
Best wishes x
They looked really good, Im hungry now :)
Thank you 😋Sarah :)
You’ve inspired me to try making these. I’m adding curry powder and turmeric to them.
Hope you enjoy! Sarah :) PS Send a photo on Facebook!
very nice!!!,,....... ive never cooked anything in my life......my wifes a too gooder cook...however who knows , i might surprise everyone one day and just do it , thanks anyway they look lovely.
Heather folks and hope you're doing fantastic and so great to see you guys making the best of the times were in right Now. I am going to bed probably after this and we'll probably sing the Cooking with Andrew and Sarah song in my head till I fall asleep LOL! stay well and stay safe
We were wondering if someone would be hooked by the theme tune - Ha! Ha! Brilliant! Sarah :)
I'm making your pasty recipe this morning Sarah. I'll let you know what they taste like later. Xx
They look 'ansome. I haven't used margarine for years. My pasties never come out that good. I don't know why as I am a good pastry maker. It must be because I don't use bread flour, so I will use that from now on. My mum makes good pasties. She adds a knob of butter to the filling to create some gravy. That pastry tool looks really good, I could do with one. They sell them on eBay and are called a dough blender mixer. I now need to go and make some pasties.
They look fabulous!!!When we visit Cornwall,we always try to have a pasty from Elizabeth in Coverack.She sells cakes and scones,as well as the pasties,from her thatched cottage near to the shops.Hopefully,when things are back to normal,we'll be able to come down to Cornwall and get our pasty!
Ahhh, yes! We were planning a return trip to Coverack to explore the coastline towards Cadgwith and Andrew is keen to try one of her pasties! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails I don't think he'll be disappointed!!
I can smell them from here. Love home made ones. Not Ginsters. No meat in them !!. Nice one I had was from the shop near harbour in St. Ives. Steak in it beauty. 😋
wow great looking pasties sarah will have a bash at those happy birthday andrew scones and clotted cream next please 👍
Sounds good! Jam first!! Yeh definitely on the agenda if this lockdown continues! Sarah :)
Yummy!!!! We may try this. That thingy is a pastry cutter and I use one all the time. It also keep your butter or shortening from melting because you hand are warm. Sarah I totally understand you way of cooking I’m the same way. I measure nothing.
A cook after my own heart! I find I am getting worse as I get older, having made things so often I rarely weight anything! Sarah :)
Cornish Walking Trails I have got a back yard full of turnips. We grow a veg garden and we eat the greens but hardly ever the turnips. My husband and I love them. But the kids Na.
Thank God, I thought it was just us...We call it Turnip in Yorkshire as well... :)
Wayback in 1993 I went on my first overseas visit. I visit Renee and Rudi in London, and we went camping in Cornwall for a week. One day we walked very far all along the coast. As we walked over the last hill late afternoon the fog came over, casting the little village we stumbled into in a mysterious kind of light. We were dead tired and it was getting cold. We saw the local deli/ cafe and went in. We bought a pastry/pie each. It was the best pie I have ever had. Just a pity it is so extremely far from me or I would have gone back to see if they still make those amazing little pies. Years later I told a friend who is a famous chef in my country, and she told me that it must have been a Cornish pastrie. I never put the 2 together haha
Never forget a pasty! Sarah :)
My mother-in-law (89 year old Cornish lady) swears by crumbling a bit of oxo cube over each pasty before you pleat it. Hers were fantastic pasties so don't knock it till you try it!
Turnip in Alabama USA, too. And we also called my mom's mom, "Nanny" !
I find that most grandmothers are 'Gran', 'Granny' with not so many being 'Nanny'! Sarah :)
Stay safe down there in Alabama!
I always used to put vinegar on my pasty as a child, not now though, we had our initials on too. Mum would make an extra one and slice it up cold to have with Sunday tea.
Loved this video.....I'm going to try and make some pasties....I'm gluten free, let's hope the gluten free pastry making goes to plan x
I hope so too! I am gluten free too so Andrew gets to eat all of the pasties! I made one with gluten free flour but I never find it very enjoyable :( Sarah
@@CornishWalkingTrails I'll share my pastie progress with you.... I've managed to perfect gluten free flour for cake making. I can make a lovely soft gooey chocolate cake now after years of horrid dry ones xx
My name is Patsy and more times than not my name is misspelled Pasty--I will be trying pasties next year in Cornwall, Covid allowing That tool for mixing the margarine into the flour is called a dough blender. I have one, but I had to look it up online just now to see what it is called! I live in Ohio, USA. Love all your videos!
I hope you get over here and have a great holiday! Sarah :)
Lovely pasties Sarah but where were the knobs of butter on top the filling before closing and crimping...just asking..lol. love you two...Great fun and made my tummy rumble seeing how delicious your pasties looked. I must make some soon...got all the ingredients so maybe next week...yummy!!!😁😋😋😋😋 (nice bit brown sauce with mine every time too...😋😋😋) xx
Как уютно, тепло и мило у вас дома. Обязательно по попробую приготовить коркуэльские пирожки по вашему рецепту.
Kitchen Craft Stainless Steel Hand Held Pastry Blender Maker Dough Cutter Mixer........pasties look amazing...you can't beat home made...yummy!!!! 😁😋😋😋
„Pastry Blender“ in the USA for adding butter or fats blended into flour. Thx for the video!
Ahhh! That's great! Thank you! Sarah :)
Proper ❤️
its Friday evening 2315 just finished watching this great cooking lesson and guess what am starving, no pasties for us up here its Oatcakes filled with Bacon and Cheese. We are in Staffordshire Moorlands stay safe and keep up the superb work xxxxxx thank you
Sounds great! I hope you enjoyed the video! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails i certainly did i could smell them from up here in Leek
My auntie had a pasty shop in Padstow many years ago. My dad was a Cornishman from Saltash. I make mine with turnip too but I like to grind the meat 🥩
Greetings from New Zealand. My previous pasty making attempts have been a bit "ho-hum" but you've inspired me to try again for tonights tea. Eventually I'll make my Great-great-grandmother (from Pendeen) proud :) No swede on hand so I'll just leave it out (don't really like it much anyway).
Wonderful! Send a picture on Facebook!! Sarah :)
I love the interaction between you guys, it's really nice to see a couple that are obviously such good friends 💕 Re the recipe: surprised to see how simple it is to assemble one, there's almost no seasoning??
Just salt and pepper my dear, all that is needed for this recipe when you take the TLC into account ... Tradition, Love and Consideration.
My mum called it a pastry cutter. Happy belated birthday Andrew! And may I ask how Sarah has better hair than just about everyone else in lockdown? 😄 thank you for uploading. Stay healthy 🤗💕
Yes, a pastry cutter...i am from US Michigan, big pasty loving family
From California. We call it a pastry blender?
I can only speak as a vegetarian, but my top 3 bought pasties are: Philps, Ann's Pasties (The Lizard) and The Boscastle Farm Shop.
Are Ann's pasties the ones with shops in Helston and Porthleven? If so, they are lovely - and very big!
Philps do excellent pasties and another subscriber has recommended the Boscastle Farm Shop, excellent! Sarah :)
That " horseshoe pastry thingy" is called, A "Pastry Cutter". Used to "cut" the butter into the flour for pastries, just like what you're doing!😀😀 Works great! We like making and eating pasties in Michigan!
I made “Cornish” pasties last week (I know a true proper Cornish pastie needs to be made in your hometown... I live in NY, such thing as NY pasties. I can start a trend😝) they sure were delicious... they looked like yours! Next week I am trying my hand at clotted cream & scones... hope you are doing well. Stay safe!
Sounds great! We were thinking of making scones for a video - its Andrew's speciality! Sarah :)
that looks fun. With a smitch of that and a drip of this :) It looks like a meat croissant :)
Hi Carola! That's interesting, have you tried making one? Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails No, I just watched you do it :D
Well, you inspired me and I'm in the process of making a pasty right now. Is it right, that 1oz are 38g? 1lb are 16oz=454g?? Tell it all the metric world ;-) Cheers
Two hours later .... my pastime pasty is gone and was very delicious. Thank you for the idea! You know, that means, that I varied the thing a bit. My filling was chopped meat, egg, onion, carrots. The most surprising experience to me was, that the pasty wasn't burnt black after one hour of baking. Just great! And I have to add: The butter must be COLD!! That`s why you well use your thingy,- you don`t worm the butter with your fingers.
Makes me want to try. Great tutorial :-) Thank you! Fortunately, there is a Cornishman living here in Bergen. He gets Cornish pasties flown in and he puts them in his oven and sells them from his café. So I have been able to taste these here. But I will really try this recipe :-) Lovely to see both your dogs. I have wondered how the oldest one is doing, as he no longer joins you on your walks
Lucky!
Sounds great! Nothing like a Cornish pasty! Sarah :)
Where does he get them flown in from as I live overseas? Tks.
@@stephenjohns3817 I have unfortunately no idea where he got them from, except it was from somewhere in Cornwall. He sadly had to close his business some months ago due to the corona situation and too low sale.
@@TravellingTorunn ....if you bump into him please ask what bakery delivered from Cornwall. Appreciated tks.
Thank you for the tutorial! Could I use buttter instead of margarine?
Oh yes! No problem! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails Thank you!! ..I'm new in your channel, it's the best tutorial I found, and very well explained. Best regards! (✿◠‿◠)
Oooo. Yes please 😋😋
Love your show have you got the recipe for Saffron Cake gorgeous with Clotted Cream could you film a walk around Menheniot havnt been there for years love from Oz 😘😘😘🦘🦘🦘🦘
Great suggestion! We were thinking of a cream tea if this lockdown continues for the foreseeable future, after all what is more Cornish that a good cream tea - jam first!! Sarah :)
Also frozen shortcrust pastry works great if short on time or hungry. Handmade pastry can also split if not enough marg/lard content.
Great tip! Thanks Sarah :)
Hello Hope you are all ok ? !!! Perhaps a nice cup of tea and a slice of cake next time !!!
Good idea!!
Did you ever eat a pasty from horse and jockey in Porthleven or Helston ? They were incredible!
Agreed! Best in Helston! Sarah :)
Remember us in Cornwall have a tendancy to call Swedes Turnips 👍😂
I like A Wiltshire Pasty. meat Pork, spuds. turnip or swede. also chopped onion, some suit. all precooked then wrapped in short pastry sealed at the top cook half an hour.
Do they have gluten free pasties in Cornwall fresh? Hope so! If not can you mention that they would do more trade as people are learning more today about gluten and why it's bad for your health.
Having a true allergy, I do not risk other people's version of gluten free anymore, I always seem to react. I don't think they believe tis a real allergy. Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails I had chronic candida and a leaky gut for 2 decades that doctors never told me about that i treated myself through a strict diet. Buckwheat is not a grain but a seed and is fine for the candida diet where no gluten is allowed in order to heal the body and gut. Steel cut oats and rolled oats are not gluten either or buckwheat groats that i use for porridge. I developed many vitamin deficiencies from candida (fungal/yeast overgrowth) and a leaky gut that goes hand in hand. Gluten can also lead to leaky gut (holes in the intestines) and being 30 ft long will need help healing back. L-Glutamine capsules or powder taken for 2 months at least first thing on an empty stomach and wait an hr till you eat and the same before bed on an empty stomach helps heals the holes back, bone broth is another good option if you make it yourself with grass fed cow bones that are really cheap to buy. Seems like many people are affected by gluten and i hope many restaurants and takeaways just use gluten free flour as it's a pain in the bum when you love your food and i do nearly as much as your husband/boyfriend ha ha!
In the US we call it a pastry cutter
Turnip in Scotland too! Debbie, my Mrs is from Derby and she calls it Suede. They're a bit weird! 😈
A fellow celt!! Hooray! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails Possibly a fellow Cornish citizen once we're all allowed to move again. 😊
Uncle Stewie Lockhart I thought they were two different vegetables?? 🤔
@@Rfoz51 Turnip and swede are definitely different vegetables. Turnips are generally smaller than swede and the flesh is white often with mauve or purple colouring at the top. They are generally a flattened sphere (oblate spheroid technically!). Swedes are distinctly purple-ish on the outside and the flesh is orange.
If you ask any Cornish man who makes the best pasties, it's their gran.
So, you said Andrew prefers shortcrust pastry. Does that mean that shortcrust isn’t the traditional pastry to use? If so, what is the traditional?
Shortcrust is traditional but some bakeries offer flaky pastry too - Andrew dislikes the mess that flaky pastry makes! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails ahh! Gotcha! Thank you for responding 😁
My mum has a cookery book of Cornish recipes. It is surprising how many Cornish originated ones there are. How about Saffron cake next?
Saffron cake is one of Andrew's favourites! We may have to give it a try if this lockdown continues... Sarah :)
Sarah I live how you say paaaasty the proper Cornish way.
Btw did you see the In The Factory programme from Ginsters. They cut their swede thinner than the potato cos it takes longer to cook.
Here in Cornwall we tend to look down on Ginsters a bit, they tend to include veg that is not traditional. Saying that we have not had one for a while! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails no way am I endorsing Ginsters. They're OK I suppose if you don't have access to anything better. But I did find it interesting about the cooking times of the veg.
Ate a pasty made by Gi......rs (you know who I mean) meat was like mince so a bit of a flop. The proper pasty shops are all in central London or on the M4 :( I will get the girlfriend to make to your recipe Sarah, looks deeelish and authentic!
OOOO! Nearly swore!! I hope you find a proper pasty soon! Sarah :)
