GOOD OLE' MICHIGAN PASTY (PASTIES)
Growing up in Michigan, as soon as the weather turned cool I started craving Pasties! My Aunt Nancy always made the best pasty, and this is her recipe. She said she sourced hers from the Eastern Star Recipe book. Traditionally pasties were made by the wives of miners that would bring them along down into the mines in their pockets. Reheating them on the back of their shovels over lanterns. While this doesn't need to be reheated over a lantern, they certainly taste just as good the next day.
