Cooking Instructions For

Frozen Pasties By Post

Instructions for cooking Frozen Pasties By Post.

Your Pasties By Post will be delivered via carrier, securely packed in a strong polystyrene container with two large frozen silica gel freezer cell packs to ensure that your pasties arrive frozen ready for your freezer or to be cooked.

1) We do not recommend that the pasty be thawed out before cooking.

2) Normal cooking for an unfrozen pasty would be approximately 40 minutes at a temperature of:

425 degrees Fahrenheit  - 218 degrees Centigrade - Gas Mark 7.

3) With a frozen pasty, a lot of heat will be extracted from the oven just to change its state from being frozen to being raw. This will have the effect of lowering the temperature in the oven, prolonging the cooking time, and causing the pasty to become hard and brittle. To overcome this problem, we suggest that the oven should be brought up to a temperature of about 500 degrees Fahrenheit - 260 degrees Centigrade - Gas Mark 9 before inserting the pasties, and if only one or two pasties are being cooked, it should be turned back to 425 degrees Fahrenheit - 218 degrees Centigrade - Gas Mark 7 after about 5 minutes. If a greater number of pasties are being cooked, the duration of time at the higher temperature should be increased to about 10 minutes.

When the pasties have turned a nice golden brown with the underneath sealed and NOT doughy, which should be after around 40 minutes, they are ready for eating,

Should you require further information, our staff will be happy to furnish it. We thank you for your custom and trust that you will enjoy these pasties. Should you have any complaints we would be glad if you would return the remaining portion of any pasty in order that we may diagnose the problem. We will be most happy to refund your money and any expenses that you may have incurred.

For best results we do not advocate the use of a microwave oven.
