dude...you forget who yer talkin to?? I know the difference. I meant the filling. (just messin)thehotpepper.com said:Scottish meat pies are not like Jamaican beef patties. JBP are a type of empanada, totally different. Pies keep the pie shape (like Australian). Patties (empanadas) are like sealed tacos.
Celeste said:I would like to know the dimensions of those pie pans...I have seen recipes for meat pies from the British Isles.
Americans tend to think of "pie" in the terms of custard or fruit. Thus the dimensions of the pan tend to wide, shallow, and feeds 6-8. Those in the vids were clearly intended as individual servings (for individuals with good appetite!) and appear to be much deeper than pie pans are here?
I never thought so. Pie, to me, involves a filled dish. Pizza, IMO is flat and, with the exception of Sicilian, level and piled high.thehotpepper.com said:Ditto. Pie is sweet or savory. Pizza is pie.
