A variety of products are used to make pies. We are used to meat or fish as a filling, but if you think about it, our ancestors had much fewer options.
In ancient times, it was hard to get meat, it was considered a luxury
.
However, we should not forget that the population had their own vegetable gardens, on which they were free to grow berries and fruits. These products became the main filling of pies. Such baked goods have a wonderful flavor, and also well satiates. Let’s try to cook a similar pie according to the recipe below.
