Subject: RE: What is your folkie meat pie recipe?
Re Melton Mowbray Pork Pies, I discovered to my cost that in REAL MM Porkies The meat is SUPPOSED to be moistened with Anchovy juice ( I was given to understand THIS was the principlal distinguishing feature of MMs) Luckily for me most pork pies (even if they say so on the label) ARE NOT, Luckily you ask? I am ALLERGIC to Fish and can go into anaphylactic shock from a small amount, on the ocassion on which I made this discovery, when I got a genuine MM, I came up in lumps like a poisoned Pup!!!and was hospitalised
