SC - Tartys in Applis-NEW recipe-enjoy

[LYN M PARKINSON]

Tyrca,


>> other people I talked to had never heard of meat in mince pies. <<


Blame it on Crosse & Blackwell, architecture that didn't include root
cellars, and today's busy life style.  Meat [canned] doesn't keep as
well, I've heard, so that C&B just did the fruit and flavorings bit for
their mincemeat.  Expensive to buy theirs, but so much easier and
quicker.  It makes a good pie for the holidays.  Last year, my ex made
the period stuff--not that he knew it was--and our pies were wonderful! 
The last bit was too small to fill a pie shell, so it went as filler for
a custard pie.  Double wonderful!  Don't have his recipe, and for the
custard, I just used something modern, i.e. Joy of Cooking or Betty
Crocker.  Maybe even Bisquick Impossible?  Naawww...
