  • No it wasn't one from the featured Mums it was one from a member of public. I only wanted to find it because my H has been very ill and he said he liked the look of the pork pie and wanted to try it. Thanks for your help.

    I saw this, but didn't think it was an available recipe - I think the historian described it as a Cheshire pork pie, and the lady agreed - that may help you google a specific recipe. It had apple in it if I remember rightly.
  • I've just re-chcecked the pdf of the publics recipe and it's not there. but if you do a search for "pork pie recipe"s there are a lot to choose from including several from the BBC

    Hope that helps

    I've just watched it on the i-player. The bit with the pork pie is about 44 mins in. She said it was like a cheshire pie and has apples and bacon in it. I'm surprised that it's not on the pdf as it was one of the featured foods at the fair.

    A word of warning, I followed the recipe on the website for the crumpets (scrummy, had to make two batches lol) but the quantities for the liquid seemed way out which was a pain as it needs to be warmed!

    Way out as in too little? Dying to try the crumpets!

    I am not 100% Sure, but I'm not sure if all the recipes which are just mentioned (rather than featured) are in the book?

  • Psykicpup - I have the recipe for Crumpets in my copy of the book. Were your crumpets too runny or too dry. Let me know and I can check against the recipe in the book.

    Don't know about anyone else, but it's really pi$$ing me off that the recpies are so hard to find. I've bought the book and feel the recipes ought to (all) be in it, but I too would like to try making the pork pie and cannot find the recipe :(

    I made the crumpets and wouldn't have said the liquid quantaties were wrong but I've never made them before so I just assumed it was as should be!
