The Pasty and the Scotch Egg

[LeMartinPecheur]

My mother, who was not Cornish, made her (excellent) pasties with the crimping along the top.

Much later I was told that the 'true' Cornish pasty has the crimping along one side; and (rather darkly) that my mother's crimping style was the sign of 'a Devon Pasty'!

Quite correct!

Last chance for your mum: which way up did she make her cream teas?

Well - first time I took splits, jam and cream down the mine for croust I got lammed by Capn Tresedder for a-doin of it wrong and now I do forget every time which comes first and can't ask mum cause she's gone to the Great Pasty Shop in the sky....

I wish my wife would make some home made scotch eggs!

Some establishments are rising to the challenge (and creating an opportunity out of a threat)
