OT Pork Pies

[lbj]

The jelly makes the juices when hot but tasty still when cold - holds the meat steady but there shouldn't but too much jelly.....love it !

And a lovely pint with 10.5 mm creamy head.....mmmmm

It's the jelly that puts me off a pork pie. I wish there was a decent one with the just the meat and pastry but no jelly.

Just cut it open and scrape it out.

Those Pork Farms ones they sell in supermarkets don't have much jelly I don't think.

Were they as nice as Pie & Peas at Wentworth though froggy ? ��

No they were not Casper! I'll always have the fond memory of watching you wobbling down your drive at the end of the night as well

How ever many times you read that it doesn't look right!

Jelly in pork pies is called gravy I believe

[PerigordMiller]

No no no. It's jelly.

Its the gelatine out of the bones.

By the way Frog have you tried the pate en crout (Intermarche I think) with chevreuil int middle ? Not the same as a proper pie, but quite tasty.

Aspic jelly / geletine in the pork pies, helps keep the meat moist, made from meat stock.

I know what I would like to keep my Meat moist.

Turners Butchers in Rillington village on the A64 about 15 miles from Scarbro make lovely pork pies, sausage rolls,and their steak pies are to die for if anybody is out that way on a day trip well worth calling in. Staniforths at rowmish are a good substitute.

Archie.

I always walk like that froggy.....it's the arthritis in my hip / knee joints.

Must remember to re-visit Percys at Jump not been for a while.
