Using this book, the next pie you make will be a comforting, tasty meal everyone will enjoy. -- One of the most comforting foods is pastry and it is an ingredient used the world over. Pastry started life as a simple ground grain and water paste that was baked around a substantial filling to act as protection from contaminants more like an ancient cling film or foil than a food. In fact, the pastry casing wasn t even eaten; it was broken off and discarded, leaving the filling unharmed and perfect for eating. Over the years, the recipe for pastry has ben developed into something that is as equally delicious to eat as the filling or topping it houses. Many of us have at least one family member who has made or makes a great pie, and it seems to be one of those dishes that instantly bring to mind a great foodie memory to anyone who loves home baking.
