The Strange Way The Royal Family Eat Mince Pies!
I've never been a fan of mince pies, until I came up with my own mincemeat recipe and learnt how the royal family ate them. That was a game changer for me and now I look forward to mince pies every Christmas. Hope you enjoy them!

How to Make Mincemeat Pie
GET THE FULL RECIPE HERE:
Want to serve a Christmas dessert that's traceable back to the 13th century? imperialsugar.com. Mincemeat Pie was traditionally served during the Christmas season. No longer just a savory dish, Chef Eddy's Mincemeat Pie is overflowing with dried fruits, apples, oranges and lemon, and sweetly spiced with cinnamon and ginger. While it's true you can buy jarred mincemeat, nothing beats the made-from-scratch flavor of homemade. The fruit and brandy mixture needs to soak for several days (and can be kept for weeks) so plan ahead when you want to make a Mincemeat Pie. Trust us, it's worth the wait. #imperialsugar #dessert #recipe #mincemeatpie #pie #mincemeat

1 tbsp caster sugar
1 large free-range egg yolk
Method:
1. Sift 170g plain flour and a pinch of salt into a bowl. Rub in 100g cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes, with your fingers until you have a crumble-like mixture.
2. Stir in 1 tbsp caster sugar, then add 1 large free-range egg yolk and mix quickly with a palette knife. Add 1-2 tbsp cold water, a little at a time, mixing with the knife until the mixture is drawn together into a dough.

How to Make Mince Pies - The Victorian Way
????Order your copy of Mrs Crocombe’s cookery book here: ????
Mrs Crocombe is making traditional mincemeat in the Victorian kitchens of Audley End House. She’s made enough to last the whole Christmas season and will be using it to make some mince pies today. If you would like to make some yourself, storing it in sterilised jars will make it last a very long time indeed!
INGREDIENTS
450g Ox Tongue
900g Raisins
900g Minced Apples
900g Suet (you can use shortening as a substitute)
1.1kg Currants
1.1kg Caster Sugar
450g Candied Peel
2 Lemons
Salt
2 Grated Nutmegs
1 tbsp Ginger
1tsp Pounded Mace
300ml Sherry (or Madeira)
300ml Brandy
METHOD
Combine the ox tongue, suet, raisins, currants, apples, candied peel, the rind and juice of boiled lemons, sugar, two pinches of salt, ginger, mace, nutmeg, sherry and brandy into a large container or bowl. Give it a good mix until all of the ingredients are combined. You can store your mincemeat in sterilised jars, or create some mince pies just like Mrs Crocombe.
