Starting with a chapter dedicated to the core recipes for the most-used pastry – including shortcrust, puff and rough puff, hot water, filo, suet, choux and sweet pastry – these become the basis for the pastry masterpieces in the book. (And if you don't have time to make pastry from scratch, don't despair – the recipes in the book are doable with shop-brought for when time and inclination are against you.)
In chapters such as veggie pies, open pies and tarts, saucy pies, raised pies, pasties and sweet stuff, you'll find recipes for kitchen classics (from the ultimate quiche to a beef and ale pie, and from the classic River Cottage pork pie to custard tarts), as well as unexpected sweet and savoury treats (think spanakopita, chicken balti pie or plum, raspberry and hazelnut meringue pie), rounded out with a chapter of sauces, gravies and custards – everything you'll need to accompany your pies, pastries and pasties.
With an introduction from Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, this book provides 80 comforting recipes of grounded pastry cooking, achievable for everyone and on your table in no time.
