Your traditional pastie is aimed mainly at your meat eater. Quorn was developed for people who like the taste/texture of meat, but would rather not extinguish members of the animal kingdom for the sake of a snack.
I propose the people from quorn incorporate their product in the traditional style
pastie.
(worth noting that this is obviously distinct from the meat-based products of a similar name from the town of Quorn, SA, Australia)

8th of 7 mentioned once that he'd had Quorn and it was pretty good. However, wiml linked elsewhere with the desciption: A tasty "flesh-like fungus" grown in vats. Has anyone here done a side-by-side comparison of the flesh-like and the flesh? (I'm not describing $1K blow-up dolls vs. nymphos, you filthy animals) |

Erm. I had quorn sausages for dinner, and they were rather pleasant. I'm not much fun of the pastie though, but I'm sure those that are deserve to have Quornish ones. PS I'm not vegetarian, but I do know what they put in real sausages |
|
| |
What's a "pastie" in this context? |
|
| |
[neilp]: Oh. I see. I was wondering how one might get quorn to adhere to one's nipples. Never mind. |
|

//the taste/texture of meat//
If you can duplicate the taste, texture and color of a British meat pie, count me out. |
|
| |
You already had quorn on the cob, what's new with this? |
|
| |
Pasties, c'mon keep up. ;] |
|
| |
Actually (well, in Australia anyhow) a recent study was done into sausages from major supermarkets and a random selection of butchers. |
|
| |
They /all/ conformed to Australian standards (which controls things like fat content, how much actual beef, lamb, chicken, pork, whatever, and the amount of preservative in it). If a sausage in Australia says "Beef" you can be sure it's almost entirely proper beef meat (not tripe and dog noses and such) |
|
| |
(a) - <Dubya/>Make no mistake about it</Dubya> kbecker, this pasties idea was posted *before* quorn on the cob (which I posted as a logical conclusion) |
|
| |
Old German proverb: 'You don't need to see how laws and sausages are made.' |
|

Just dropped in to leave you a fishbone. The pasty (note correct singular spelling) has three of the major food groups - meat, onions and pastry - and only needs the fourth (beer) to become a perfect lunch.
I realise that it was just an excuse for extraneous alliteration, but "porcine" does not enter the picture; pasty meat is skirt or chuck steak. |
|
| |
[angel] *Proper* pasties are actually meat and potato and onion (as anyone in their right mind knows). The cornish kind have other veg in as well though. Has anyone ever had a welsh Oggie? |
|
| |
what sort of a personal question is that? |
|
| |
can I also recommend to you the customer : |
|
| |
Thats all my quornal knowledge |
|
| |
No offence [Po] it's a commestable.
Once whilst in Wales I saw sign
"Hot Welsh Oggies" |
|
| |
So I went in and asked what the hell an Oggie is.
"It's a pasty" I was told and so (being a dedicated follower of pasties) I bought one. |
|
| |
The *Oggie* was about a foot long and was made of inch thick pastry wrapped around an unidentifiable concoction (though I think there was leek in there somewhere).
It took me an hour to eat half of it and then another hour to walk the 10 yards back to my car. |
|
| |
Not an experience I wish to repeat. |
|
| |
Baked in a building made with Quornwalls. |
|
| |
[UB]: One would hope the two halves were served separately. |
|
| |
Actually, they were not. The pasty was developed for the use of tin miners, and consisted of meat and vegetables in one end and, as [UB] suggests, fruit (generally berries or stewed apple) in the other. The pastry was sealed in such a way as to leave a large 'crimp' which was used to hold the pasty, and was discarded, it being filthy with the tin ore waste (or, depending on the individual miner's job, possibly arsenic) from the men's hands.
[squeak]: I cannot claim to be in my right mind, but I am aware that the pasty contains potato and swede. Certain heathens also add carrots, but this is widely frowned upon in Cornwall, as are any other variations from the tradition. |
|
| |
Baked in Galicia, Spain. They call them "empanadas", and are often only filled with "pisto", an Italian-style mix of peppers, tomato and onion. As in Cornwall, they also think they're the only people in the world who make them. (PS- Is "killing" a plant comparable? When you clean the toilet you're killing bacteria...perhaps all life can only exist taking others. I'll leave you with that happy thought.) |
|
| |
... and the Jamaican beef patty, and all the other permutations of the same general idea around the world. |
|
| |
But this is pasties, dammit! |
|
| |
(never had one; sounds yummy) |

//a 'proper' pasty was filled half with stewed meat and vegetables, and half with fruit pie filling.// |
|
| |
Cornish pasties are all meat/veg. The half savoury/half sweet version is a Bedfordshire Clanger (link). |
|
| |
a vertiable quornucopia of annotations.
I'm wondering if I should consider a plan for vegetarian street food vendors. Perhaps they could open on intersections. |
|
| |
and it's only a matter of time before Kellogs get on our case. |
|
| |
Oh dear - another pun fest. I thought we'd got over them. I thought we'd turned the ... |
|
| |
Cornish Pasty = damned good. Whatever the filling, regional variation, presence or lack of pastry wall and various fruits, they are the best snack money can buy. But, please, don't add quorn. |
|
| |
[OnionBread]: While you're correct regarding the Bedfordshire Clanger, the pasty was originally the same (linky). |
