Mince Pies... The Many Unhappy Returns of the Clag Police

Judging by the anemia of some pies I’m guessing they have been glanced past a sous vide and nothing more

Tempura mini-pie…

McDonalds have done a “seasonal” pie before which is effectively tempura.

Shit.

Sous vide has it’s place. A mince pie is absolutely not one of them.

Pastry chilling dans le frigo, mincemeat awaiting spooning and oven heating.

Put some ‘hosting’ rum in along with satsumas, lemon and a smear of vanilla paste.

Oh, and a slug of gin with a little bit of chopped apple.

Highly promising (y)

Don’t speak to soon. My pastrycraft is somewhere between moccasin making and bad taxidermy.

They’re in now anyway. T minus 20 minutes.

You missed one.

Getting the lids right is tricky, my last attempt looked similar - too small or baggy prolapse. In both cases seepage was an issue.

Yes. Plus I panicked whilst cutting them. My wife phoned to ask how the chicken was doing.

The chicken I was supposed to put in at 3 instead of dicking around with piemanship.

Hasn’t gone down well.
