SC - pasty

[Christina van Tets]

_In re_ pasties, herewith the ditty my Cornish grandmother and great 
aunts used to recite:

Pastry rolled out like a plate, piled with turmuts, tates and mate, 
roll it up and bake like fate and that's a Cornish pasty.

In reality, they used to say that you could make a pasty out of 
anything (like the fish one mentioned earlier).  We used to have jam 
and/or fruit ones, for example.  In savoury ones, I always had the 
inpression that turnips (turmuts) were more highly valued than the 
spuds.  And watch them shudder if you put peas in!!
