Sect. 1.-General Remarks (There are few articles)

747. There are few articles of cookery more generally liked than savoury pies, if properly made; and they may be made so of a great variety of things. Some are best eaten when cold, and in that case there should be no suet put into any forcemeat that is used with them. If the pie is either made of meat that will take more dressing, to make it extremely tender, than the baking of the crust will allow, or if it is to be served in an earthen pie-dish, the meat, if beef, must be previously stewed. The crusts used will be specified in each case, reference being made to the paragraph in the last chapter.
