I learned to make Pasties from My Mom and like one of the other reviews we always included rutabegga. I also like to add some shredded carrots. One time when I did not have enough potatoes on hand, I tried this with sweet potato, not the traditional but wow, did it add flavor. I was also interested in this recipe becuase this recipe also came down through my family through My Great Grandma Johns from Cornwall England, wonder if we are related.

I grew up on these because my grandmother would make them for me every Sunday. I agree with the member that added the vanilla though and sometimes a hint of cinnamon. Grandma did not use sugar but did add the vanilla. On the holidays for a really fun idea, instead of the milk, we would use an equal amount of eggnog it is a really kicked up flavor that way. My favorite was to put grape jelly or strawberry jam and roll them up.
