Pass-ties Pass-ties
« on: January 24, 2007, 04:41:42 PM »
Hi, Does anybody know of a retailer of frozen Cornish pasties?  I was told they are pronounced pass-ties and that cornish paste-ies were on cornish strippers who are just doing it for the tuition. There used to be a place in Bridgeport that sold them and they were delicious. I've looked a couple times but could never find anything on the web.   
thanks, pete

There's a local company here in Phoenix, but I'm not sure if they sell any frozen.

I've always heard it pronounced pass-tees.

My dad used to take those down in the mine for lunch.

The only pasty I know anything about is pronounced paste-y.  grin

Which brings up the still uresolved mystery. If that was a "wardrobe malfunction" why WAS Janet wearing a pasty underneath her boustiere?  rolleyes

The pies are known as "past-ees," emphasis on the first syllable.

I haven't made them in years. The last time I tried a frozen pasty, it was worse than none at all.

Past - ees

Could possibly get a rather decent recipe for you. My mother is an Englishwoman by birth but spent enough years in God's Count(r)y to make a more than adequate pasty.
I do not like, when with me play, and I think that you also

If so, you can order them online.

They ship them frozen.  I used to pick them up a couple times a week when I lived in Marquette and they were always good.
