Our
August system-wide Heirloom recipe came from across the pond, via
Northern Minnesota. Pat Scripture, a resident at The Waters of Mayowood
in Rochester, Minnesota, described how her family loved Cornish
Pasties, a staple among the miners up on the Iron Range where her family
settled back in 1892. Her grandfather, great grandfather and
great-great grandfather were community leaders in Virginia, Minnesota,
and Pat continued the tradition by serving on the City Council in New
Prague, Minnesota.
Filled
with pork, beef and root vegetables, pasties were something Pat’s
mother and grandmother always made. There are many variation of the
recipe. According to Pat, a good crust is the key. Her favorite recipe
comes from Cornwall, England. Pat said, "We like them served with
ketchup." Though they’re hard to find in many areas, they’re still easy
to find in restaurants and grocery stores up on the Iron Range.
