In reply to Northern Snippet. Yep, it seems odd. Promise it works. Well, with the Appleton's one it does.

I think I’ll try a lattice top on my xmas pork pie this year. Last year I made an absolute beast. Burst the bastard with jelly though as I was too greedy pouring it in.

Mrs King’s pork pies at Borough Market, made in Nottinghamshire, use uncured pork meat, so are a pinky grey colour inside, rather than the unattractive blush you often get. The pastry is perfect and they taste delicious.
