Rate this book
From a traditional Steak and Kidney Pie, to the modern Cauliflower Cheese Pie, our savory pies are sure to become a new family favorite.

Pies and tarts have long been a British food staple; Gypsy Tarts from Kent, Forfar Bridies from Scotland, and Leek and Ham Pie from Wales.

Many recipes go back centuries including the Medieval Katt Pie made with mutton, currants, and brown sugar, to the 19th century Forfar Bridies filled with beef and flavored with mustard.

And more recently, Curry Chicken Pie, created for the coronation of Queen Elizabeth in 1953.

It isn't just savory pies that enjoy a rich history either, and in this book, you can enjoy

Maids of Honour Pie, so –named by Henry VII. Lemon Meringue Pie; first served in 1875 to the Seventh Earl of Shaftesbury by botanist Emile Campbell-Browne, and the ever popular Victorian favorite, Rhubarb Pie.

March 5-11 is British Pie Week and to celebrate we have brought together 40 of the best British traditional and modern recipes all baked using easy to source ingredients.

The best pie book.

I have given this 4stars as it's the best pie book I have read in a long time.
It's simple to follow
Most ingredients you will have in your fridge.
Made the of three pies so far and they turned out perfect.
They are English pies just a shame that it's US weights & measures.
There should be a conversation list in the back of the book.
