[@dkindig]

Note that he used an Indian bay leaf, not a laurel bay leaf (common in the US). They are very different and if you don't have Indian bay a substitute could be a small pinch of cinnamon or a single clove. Great trick using the spoon handle to cut the fats into the flour! It looked like the perfect texture.

[@Apocalypz]

Absolutely agree with @dkindig that a standard pie is made with English bay leaf. The Indian version has absolutely no similar flavour. Adding either is lovely, but if you can find the English version, then the flavour is quite more pronounced.

I worked in the Pharmacy in Bellingham, near Keilder forest, late 1995 - mid 1996. There was a pie shop next door, which fed most of the village late on Friday & Saturday nights, after everyone had stumbled out of the local pubs. Amazing pies, and I was passing through Bellingham last Summer & very little has changed. Lovely wee place.

[@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade]

Sound idyllic. Thanks for watching my friend. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website. profoodhomemade.com/steak-n-ale-pies/

Sadly looks like the pie shop has closed now.

[@cogboy302]

Erm, I might have been infamous in Bellingham back then. I was a locum pharmacist at the Chemist shop. Fresh faced & not long qualified. One Friday, I was a bit late up in the morning, after a few shandies in the pubs on the Thursday night, so I went to the shop wearing my glasses, and took my contact lenses & contact lens solutions with me to work. After I got back to my lodgings at the end of the day, I realised I'd left all my contact lens stuff and my glasses in the pharmacy. Not a problem. I was going past there out on the beer later on. - At the end of the evening's refreshments, after a couple of pies, I went into the pharmacy to retrieve my belongings. Next thing I knew, I had two coppers from Hexham Police station sat on my back, arresting me for breaking into the shop. - With the keys. As you do. The local piss artists who were outside, between the pharmacy & the pie shop were trying to talk to the coppers, "What are you doing? He's the pharmacist." Then followed a fun trip to Hexham nick, and on the way there they threatened to beat the shit out of me, (I was cuffed), because I was trying to explain to them that I had to have the pharmacy open at 9am the next morning. "Shut up, or we'll shut you up." Etc. - Plus they didn't know if they had actually locked the shop after they nicked me, so the locals could have cleared the place out. They told me that I could "fucking walk back to Bellingham" until, after a couple of hours in a cell at Hexham Police station, the desk sergeant realised that they had made a massive cock up, and then they were more than happy to give me a lift back to Bellingham. "Let's say no more about it, eh?" Etc. The shop was rather busy on the Saturday morning, as everyone and their dog came in to find out what happened, and see all the bruising on my arms and face after I was knocked to the floor and had a cop sat on my back. Ahh, salad days. 29 years ago. Not that the experience still bothers me.

[@LucyKelly-of6cu]

@@adreabrooks11 What is ground maize? Isn't that corn flour?

[@adreabrooks11]

@@LucyKelly-of6cu Apparently, that depends on where you're from - a fact I didn't know until watching this video. It seems that the word "corn" originally meant "chunky granules" - so one might see talk of corns of barley, wheat or salt (salt being where we get the term "corned beef.") This use is still quite common outside Canada, the United States and Australia. Over there, they often call corn (the stuff from the cob) "maize" - which, ironically, was the term used by one of the indigenous peoples of North America (the Taino) before we started calling it "corn." I used the term "maize" so as not to confuse things. Here in North America (and maybe Australia?) the dried and powdered flour made from whole maize kernels is called "corn flour." Elsewhere, it's called "cornmeal." ("Meal" just being something that's finely ground.) Elsewhere in the world, dried and powdered maize endosperm is called "cornflour." Here in North America, we call it "corn starch." Previous to this video, I knew about the maize/corn division, but not the dual use of "corn flour/cornflour." If I had used what *I* call corn flour (what the Brits and this presenter call cornmeal), I would have been rather disappointed. 😅

We get through quite a lot of smooth in the pub but it helps us make sure the Guinness is rotated and fresh.

I think my many times great auntie made these when I was very little. I know my great grand uncle did before he died as well. I'm pretty sure my Uncle Lawrence did as well for some of the family gatherings before his death in the late 90s. I know some of my cousins did but it's been about two decades since I've had them. So thanks for bringing this back for me. I'm hoping to make them soon. You've made several here that I think my family used to make all the time before life and circumstances changed that. So thank you again very much.

The freezing tip you gave at 12:14 is really great. I do the same thing with uncooked dumplings and baozi and they're basically the same as fresh when steamed from frozen. I'll definitely be freezing these when I make them.

A friendly reminder: beef stock and beefs stock cubes that you buy in the store are often salted, therefore it may be wise to taste the pie filling when it’s almost done before you add additional salt. You may not need salt at all.

My goodness, what a mouth-watering sight! Here in Australia there's a war between "no sauce", "BBQ", or "tomato" (I'm firmly in camp "tomato sauce" 😂). I've never once had it with gravy as seems tradition in England, I'd love to try and will search your channel for a gravy recipe 🤞 When it comes to frozen pies that save the day when the belly grumbles, we have terrible choices. The cheap brands pollute the contents with rubbery, inedible cartilage and expensive boutique overpriced pies that are just "meh". I LOVE that you mentioned when its fine to make ahead or freeze, I can't wait to have one in my gob 😋😋
