Pasties! A Historic Food and Present Day Treat
In the light of all this recent rain and heat we have so many veggies that we can barely keep up with them and the constant rain means some, especially the broccoli, are rotting in the fields. To deal with this sudden vegetable overload I've decided to the make a double batch of history's favorite convenience food: the pasty! God only knows why I decided this was a good idea today when it was 80 degrees F in the shade. But alas, as I was toiling over the stove, I began to think upon the millions of other people who had toiled for their pasties. I decided to do a little research on the history of pasties, but if you have less time than interest scroll down to the bottom of the page for my pasty recipe!
