The Don Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 It was indeed and we turned those funny little aliens into these - Suet pastry with savoury filling at one end and sweet at the other! I bet it can't whistle like a clanger Wasn't the original Cornish pastie sweet and savoury for eating down the mines??? Although the official pasty has a specific ingredients list, old Cornish cookery books show that pasties were generally made from whatever food was available.[21] Indeed, the earliest recorded pasty recipes include venison, not beef.[20] "Pasty" has always been a generic name for the shape and can contain a variety of fillings, including stilton, vegetarian and even chicken tikka.[21] Pork and apple pasties are readily available in shops throughout Cornwall and Devon, with the ingredients including an apple flavoured sauce, mixed together throughout the pasty, as well as sweet pasties with ingredients such as apple and fig or chocolate and banana, which are common in some areas of Cornwall.[14]A part-savoury, part-sweet pasty (similar to the Bedfordshire clanger) was eaten by miners in the 19th century, in the copper mines on Parys Mountain, Anglesey. The technician who did the research and discovered the recipe claimed that the recipe was probably taken to Anglesey by Cornish miners travelling to the area looking for work.[39] No two-course pasties are commercially produced in Cornwall today,[40] but are usually the product of amateur cooks.[36] Link to comment

neil wrx Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) Also a little known fact is that the crust on the pasty was originally designed to stop the miners getting arsenic poisoning they would hold crust so they would not contaminate the pasty.

jimmer Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 So where does the phrase dropping a clanger come from? Is that connected to the pasty? That's one for you Don or Neil! Link to comment
