Not impressed with pork pie
Eating a pork pie is like going to White Castle and ordering a pork burger.

That has put me off them for a long time. Must try again. By the way, is the Box Tree restaurant still there in Ilkley? And is the road over Rombald's Moor from Ilkley to I think East Morton still passable? It was an old stone road, possibly Saxon, used as a path, but was passable many years back. http:/www.richardfisher.com |

Help. > Janet US I seem to remember pork pies with affection from my childhood. They had a fairly light crust and the meat was in small pieces but far from a pate and not dry at all. Apples were also used in some pies. I also recall that there was quite a bit of gelatine near the crust. The pies I remember were large and were served in slices. -- Jim Silverton (Potomac, MD) Extraneous "not" in Reply To. |

It was made with 25 layers of thinly sliced pork rolled up, breaded in panko, and deep fried. It was served on a bed of rice next to a sea of curry sauce. The millefeuille katsu had it's toesies dipped in the curry sea. It was pretty good, but then, I'm for anything that reduces my chewing effort. |
Not impressed with pork pie

I expect you mean like the pork pie Pip steals from his sister in the 1946 film, Great Expectations. It, too, was a round vertical cylinder. I thought it was small cake, at first, until it was identified as a pork pie. When I lived in CA, We had a small Brit grocery. Not many items, but they carried pies made in the UK, though they looked like half sized Swanson pot pies, alum pan and all. Regardless, they were all very good. There was pork, kidney, steak/mushroom, stk/kdny, etc. All excellent. I really enjoyed the stk/kdny pie. nb |
