Meet the Cook: I grew up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, where many people are of English ancestry and pasties - traditional meat pies often eaten by hand - are popular. Home is now a bush community. My husband and I have four children. -Carole Lynn Derifield, Valdez, Alaska

I work as a demo cook at our local kitchen store. One day this was our featured recipe. One of our customers that day was visiting from England and he kindly remarked that our pasties prepared with this recipe were "Spot on".

I had never had a rutabaga before but have found the flavor to be an excellent match with the potatoes and onions!I halved the recipe and am so glad that I did for my family of 4 as this yields a tremendous amount of food. Plenty of yummy leftovers!!My only suggestion and this is only due to personal preference is that I would reduce the amount of potatoe by 1 and add carrots for another flavor. I did have a difficult time with the dough-most likely inexperience with pastry. So next time instead of making individual pockets I will make a large cake pan and fit the dough on the bottom, place the filling, and then add another layer of dough on top-A Pastie Pie if you will.I did find the slicing of the vegetables very time consuming. I would recommend a good and large food processor to help you chop them up.Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe. I truly enjoyed it and can't wait to make it again.
