Mincepies

We decided to make the mince Pies today Mincemeat was made ages ago and put into two jars and 3 old mincemeat tubs . put it on the shelf in the laundry same as always I went to get it and it was doing a Quattermass, running along the shelf and down the wall
Anyway after cleaning up we made between us just over 100 mince pies, Mrs n makes the pastry and cuts the circles , I fill with mince meat , she puts the tops on and we both supervise the oven.
The balance of the Mince meat has been divided between 3 tubs and for safetys sake put in the freezer. Must have been the Sherry in it

Re: Mincepies

Nothing nicer than making your own mince pies if you have the time, the inclination and enough appreciative hungry mouths to warrant it.

I used to bake batches by the 100 too many years ago.

Re: Mincepies

Mince pies are made right through the year in our house, just like puppies they aren't just for Christmas....

Dragon used to make mince pies prior to Xmas, but George and I used to stand near the oven when they came out and snaffled some of them whilst still warm - delicious!!!

cant afford the Brandy here even the sherry was a present.

its the sausage rolls next, now thats a challenge, no such thing as sausage meat, we have to make our own, and to get it right it has to be tested many times before it is considered right. I have to take on that arduous task
