Pies with mincemeat inside began to be cooked quite a long time ago. Stuffing appeared because the usual French cutlets were not liked by the inhabitants of eastern Europe. Therefore, cooks came up with the idea of chopping meat to create cutlets from it. Subsequently, the meat grinder was invented for this purpose. However, experiments with minced meat could not stop only on cutlets.
Cooks began to add minced meat to pies, which seemed delicious to many. Gradually, the recipe for meat pies with stuffing in the form of mincemeat gained momentum.
