Notes: I am delighted to have the opportunity to pass on one of the top 3 recipes that I have finally got my hands on for this Christmas, I hope you enjoy it as much as I intend to.
N.B. Add 1/2 cup of water to each pint for a juicier pie. Processed this will keep for 2+ years. This makes 10 pints or 10 frozen pies.
TIP: Go to one of the big box stores in late November and ask for the mincemeat (Call first). Two years ago I got this specialty from Quebec and last year 2018 it was from Nova Scotia. Both were very good. If you're pressed for time, as most of us are this time of year, just spoon the mincemeat into a pie shell, add the top and you are in business. Good Luck and enjoy.
