Many bakers say that a real pie must be cooked for a long time. It is as if in this way a person puts a piece of his soul into the dish. This legend dates back to antiquity. Pies were cooked for a really long time. But, it was due to the fact that people did not have an oven and a lot of ingredients in free access.
Pies were baked from what was at hand. If there was an apple harvest, the pie will be with fruit, if a lot of fish caught by the head of the family – so pies are baked with fish.
