We guess no new Pasty Website would be complete without a brief outline of the history of British style Pasty Pies so … What are Pasties? Pasties have been specialized "Baked Meals in Pastry" for centuries.
Although generally made of meat, potatoes, onions and turnips, recipes and methods were jealously guarded and flavorings very competitive. As English as Calzones are Italian, Empanadas Hispanic, Pierogi Eastern European or Feuillette French. Then in 1800's these miners & mining engineers emigrated throughout the world, wherever their very special expertise was in demand, took their wives and their Pasties with them… and the rest is History. Once discovered by populations at large as a tasty and different alternative to sit down meals and as warm sandwiches with a much more personal touch, they have become British Pub staples and popular menu items throughout the English speaking world or wherever Mining communities existed… the Upper Peninsular of Michigan and areas of Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Colorado all have affectionate ties to Pasties. They're the greatest idea for a handy, different and satisfying snack! The 4 & 20 Difference Now 4 & 20 have taken the Pasty thoroughly into the 21st Century.
