I am in town to do a favor.
My friends here wanted to know how to make Cornish Pasties.
My mom was an orphan, but spent many years as a teen in a Mennonite bakery. When my dad took her home to meet his mom, (my grandmother was from Wales), this was what was handed down.
My mom made them about every two weeks, she wrapped them in wax paper and froze them. To be re-heated in oven, on cold rainy days....
I make them from memory, but here is a good recipe.

ohhh!! THANK YOU!!!
i've been searching high & low for a good Cornish pasty recipe, as i got addicted to them long ago as a kid! There was this tiny little bakery that sold them freshly baked from scratch 6 days a week all summer long...
there were times that i'd ride my bike or my horse the 6 miles each way just to get a Cornish pasty, a scotch shortbread or date bar, and a loaf of Portuguese sweet bread!
