Who doesn’t love meat pies? This dish appears incredibly often on the tables when we come to visit our grandmothers. It is from our childhood that we apparently were instilled with a love for various pies, including meat pies.
Pies are quite important not only as a type of pastry, but also as a cultural phenomenon
.
Thanks to pies, we have a large number of proverbs. For example: “The hut is red with corners, and the dinner with pies”. This proverb originated from the custom of treating the husband on the second day after marriage with meat pies. And it is important that the wife herself baked this type of pastry.
We also decided to bake pies that will conquer with their simplicity and flavor.
