UPPER PENINSULA PASTIES
I grew up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, where many people are of English ancestry. Pasties-traditional meat pies often eaten by hand-are popular there. -Carole Lynn Derifield, Valdez, Alaska

On a floured surface, roll out 1 portion at a time into a 8-in. circle. Mound 1-1/2 to 2 cups filling on half of each circle; dot with 1 teaspoon butter.

CORNISH PASTIES
This is a good old fashion pasty that brings back fond memories of family holidays spent in Cornwall when I was growing up. In the 18th century it was a staple diet for working men, like Miners & Farm Workers, across Cornwall because of its size & shape, which was easy to carry around, the pasty protecting the the wholesome food...

Steps:
- 1. Pre-heat the oven to fairly warm - Gas Mark 6 : 400F/204C. Have ready a baking sheet & a plate or saucepan lid about 6 inches in diameter.
- 2. Wipe the chuck. Steak with a clean, damp cloth, preferably muslin & cut into small pieces. Peel the potatoes & cut into small, diced pieces. Mix the chuck steak, potatoes, onion & carrot together in a mixing bowl with the water or stock & season well. Put to one side.
- 3. Make the Short Pastry: Sieve the flour & salt into a mixing bowl. Rub in the margarine until it looks like fine bread crumbs. Mix in the water to form a firm dough.
- 4. Roll out thinly & cut into round by placing the plate or saucepan lid on top the pastry & cut round with a pointed knife. Form the scraps into a ball & repeat. Place the filling in the centre of each round.
- 5. Brush the pastry edges with water. Bring the edges up & over the filling & press gently together all round to seal. Flute the edges or fold & twist neatly with the finger tips.
- 6. Place on the baking sheet & brush with beaten egg or milk. Bake in the pre-heated oven for 30 minutes; then turn the oven down to Gas Mark 3: 335F/168C & bake for a further 40-45 minutes.
CORNISH MINERS' PASTIES
These are SO good, I really should make them more than once a year! Upper Michigan (USA) has several small towns that were originally populated by Cornish miners who worked the mines there. Walking down Main Street in these towns will usually take you past a mom-n-pop cafe' where you can buy a pasty similar to this recipe. This makes 6 LARGE or 8 MEDIUM pasties--adjust the water** & butter depending on the size you choose. Recipe Recipe #230316 will complete your trip down a Cornwall Main Street.

Steps:
- Prepare pastry according to Recipe #230316 , set aside; preheat oven to 350.
- Mix meat, vegetables and salt in large bowl; divide into 6-8 portions; set aside.
- Divide pastry into 6 (large) or 8 (medium) equal pieces; roll each into a large circle, about 1/4-inch thick.
- On one half of each circle, place equal amount of meat-veg mixture.
- Carefully lift and fold pastry over filling (half circle); moisten edges of pastry with water & pastry brush; use a fork to crimp the edges to prevent liquid (added later) from oozing out. If there is a thin edge of crust, fold it over on itself to make a nice crust.
- Transfer each pasty to a large baking sheet (I use two).
- With a paring knife, poke a hole straight into JUST the top crust, shaped like an X, each leg should be about a half-inch long, then fold the little corners back (like a flower).
- Melt butter and water in the microwave; pour equal amounts into each pasty (through the little flower-hole you've created in the previous step).
- More butter-water can be added about half-way through the baking, if you didn't use it all at this point.
- Brush tops of pasties with the milk.
- Pop it all into the oven; bake for one hour; tops should be GOLDEN BROWN (you won't be able to let them in there much longer anyway--as the aroma is BEYOND this world!).
- Serve with gravy made from the soup & a bit of milk; add your favorite herbs (thyme & tarragon are our favorites); just heat the soup & milk, sprinkle in the herbs & spoon over the pasty or into the little hole.
- ALSO -- you might want to let these "rest" for a few minutes before eating---the insides will be VERY hot!
- TIPS ON EATING THESE: Miners would've carried these in a lunch pail (wrapped in a dishtowel!) -- we serve 'em on plates and slather on the gravy AFTER cutting them open to release the steam & heat; the crust is especially delish with the gravy!

PASTY PASTRY FOR CORNISH MINERS' PASTIES
This goes with Recipe #230311 and makes the most outstanding pastry crust ever! Lard is the preferred "shortening" and closest to the "original" recipe. But regular shortening will work, too. Although butter would make it very rich, I've NEVER used butter in this. The crust is very light and flakey--but sturdy enough to hold the pasty ingredients; turns a beautiful golden-brown when brushed with milk prior to baking. This recipe can also be used for quiches (weighted down with beans) and pies.

Steps:
- Mix dry ingredients in mixing bowl.
- Cut in shortening with a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add ice water a little at a time, tossing with a fork to make a pastry-like dough.
- Add a bit more water if it seems dry and won't hold together when squeezed lightly.
- Gather into a ball, press firmly now, then wrap with plastic wrap and chill while preparing the pasty ingredients (see Recipe # ).
- Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface (or on top of a piece of plastic wrap which can easily be folded over and then peeled off once the pasty ingredients are loaded).
- Edges of pasty should be brushed with a smidgen of water and then crimped VERY firmly with a fork (and I fold them and crimp again -- so none of the liquid seeps out).
- Brush tops of finished pasties with milk to enhance the crust (it will bake to a beautiful golden brown).
- NOTE: Like pastry dough, pasty dough should be handled as LITTLE as possible to ensure flakiness. So, *handle with care* !
