Cornish Pasty

About Cornish Pasty:

The Cornish Pasty Originates From Cornwall (Southwest England) and Can Be Traced Back As Far As the 1200’s. Mining Was Once A Thriving Industry in Cornwall and At That Time Pasties Were Baked by the Wives and Mothers of the Tin Miners. Pasties Were Made With A Thick Crimped Edge Along One Side So the Miners Could Use the Crimp As A Handle To Hold Onto While Eating. the Miners' Hands Would Often Be Covered in Arsenic From the Mine, So the Miners Would Discard the Handle When They Were Done. the Crusts Were Never Wasted Though, As Many Miners Believed That Ghosts, or “knockers” Inhabited the Mines, and Their Leftovers Crusts Would Keep These Ghosts Content. the Cornish Pasty Originates From Cornwall (Southwest England) and Can Be Traced Back As Far As the 1200’s.
