Pies play an important role in the formation of European gastronomy. It is not known when Europeans started baking pies and who was the first country to introduce this trend. Historians believe that pies were first baked in Greece and Rome, as these civilizations were sufficiently developed for baking skills.
Now every country has its own national pie
.
For example, in France it is quiche – a pastry made of unleavened dough with fish. There is also a German plum pie, apple American pie and the famous Ossetian pie.
