Got some πŸ”₯πŸ”₯ pasty action going on in my mini oven πŸ˜‹

Stuey, I think I asked you once about potatoes vs turnips. I've had both and I like potato a bit better. But if I only had a turnip or two, I'd sure use them! Enjoy

@wolfwoman A *proper* Cornish pasty has beef steak, potato, onion and swede (rutabaga), salt, pepper and nothing else. However a pasty can contain **whatever the hell you like** as long as you don't call it Cornish 🀣 today I had some parsnip and carrot which needed using so they're in there 😁

That's what's always so funny to me when people post "authentic" recipes online. I don't think I ever had with rutabaga, although I've seen that listed before.
I had a few pasties in different places when I visited the UK in 2004 and most most had potato and turnip. 🀷

Yours looks and sounds amazing.

@wolfwoman every uk county has its own savoury pastry and depending on the that region produced influences to this day what will be an authentic pasty.

@stueytheround @Fiikus_goddess

@wolfwoman I know that 4 items were granted protected Designation of Origin status by the European Union and so Cornish Pastys, Melton Mowbray pies, Stilton and Irish Poteen have approved ingredients

I wasn't aware of that! Also, I've had Stilton and a pasty in Cornwall so hopefully it was the real deal ;)
Would love to try the Melton Mabray but moonshine made by the Irish sounds very dangerous!
