My great grandfather immigrated from Cornwall to mine in the UP of Michigan. My grandfather and all his brothers mined as well. He taught me to make pasties, but the crust wasn’t something he felt confident in. I have made them all my life, but now in retirement wanted to perfect my crust. Your tutorials are fabulous. Thank you so much for sharing them

Hi Janice great to hear from you ! Glad you enjoyed it 😎

[@shalenawhite]

rosemary goes great with beef but from what I'm reading, its not traditional in a cornish pasty.

Lovely job Andy.. ...I too mix all my chopped up filling together with salt and pepper... but add a knob of butter on top before closing my pasty... I don't put anything green in mine...re Parsley etc....but loved your crimping...turned out lovely ...Well done and thanks for sharing...lovely video....👍👍👌😊

[@chefandybarnett]

Hi Roy , it’s in the ‘ Description’ below the video? Cheers Andy

[@PriscillaAgyarkoYeboah]

Please can you use any vegetables

[@chefandybarnett]

Hi there ! Yes I like to make fillings such as creamed leek and potato, there really is no limits ! Good luck x

[@angelacoynegallears9545]

Traditional Cornish pasties are simply potato, swede ( rutibago), onion, and meat.

[@Nidia-ds9cj]

Delicioso

[@nancydelgado937]

What is a swede?

[@onedogshits]

Hi , it’s a type of root vegetable similar to a turnip ? I hope you try my recipe , all the best 😎

[@angelacoynegallears9545]

Rutibago !!

[@AndrewMorgan666]

Always thought lamb was used for Cornish pasties

[@onedogshits]

Hi , no cheap cuts of beef were always used , hope you make some ? Regards 😎

[@simonwalker1858]

Did you look at a traditional recipe before making this film? It would have been good to explain why you think it a good idea to use chuck and fresh rosemary. Basically reinventing the wheel.

[@chefandybarnett]

Hi Simon , thanks for your comment , the recipe I use comes from a famous cookbook used in the trade and established by the most world renowned chefs … rosemary is my own addition which I think I explained in the video , however as always I would encourage anyone to experiment with recipes , find what works for you ,and most importantly get cooking !

[@steverundle8635]

There are so many pasty tutorials out there, but yours is high near top! Clear, well spoken, brief, a certain sureness, and I will use this super recipe. Thanks.

[@chefandybarnett]

Hi Steve , so glad you enjoyed it !

[@Ray-ku1sj]

You did a good job on this video, Andy. Easy to follow instructions. I grew up in Northern Michigan USA where pasties are very common, and I enjoy making them, pretty much the same way you did. Keep up the good work, and looking forward to seeing your other videos. Take care, Ray.

[@chefandybarnett]

Hi Ray , I’m really glad to hear that , all the best .

[@neilmccormick2064]

Missed out a vital component....the butter. Butter is supposed to be added just prior to folding/ closing the pastry .

[@rayskitten78]

Lift your hands higher it adds mor air

[@davidhewlett2197]

Very confusing when the printed recipe is for half the quantities being demonstrated in the videp
