Why don't pork pies come with a decent amount of jelly anymore?
.....or does anybody know of a make of pork pie available in the SE which does come with a decent amount of jelly?
The pies available in supermarkets, even the 'Taste the Difference' or equivalent, have little or no jelly. Even the ones I've bought from butchers and delis seem to be lacking.
I agree flip flop it was the jelly that made the pie moist and improved the pork flavour.
Nowadays they are drier and far too salty that's why I rarely buy them .
The other pie that has changed for the worse is steak and kidney. A better description would
be pastry and gravy . I never buy them now.
