    With population growth and climate change, we might have to radically change our diets in the future. Listen to a discussion about the food of the future: ruclips.net/video/Y3vHuw97AiA/видео.html

    This lesson is so useful for its vocabulary such as pewter dishes, replicated and reminiscent, as pewter refers one kinds of metal that are used for generating some traditional dishes. In addition, reminiscent describes about something popular that people remind, as well as replicated is the past form of replicate that means rewrite or review something.

    Wonderful lesson because I spent my last summer holidays in London and Cornwall.
    I've eaten a lot of pasty in Saint'Ives, Truro, Land's End, Tintagel and Penzance.
    So tasty

    Delicious 6-minute English video! In Argentina we have a similar dish which we call "empanadas". The word in a way means something like "in bread" because the filling is put inside a dough container. We have them filled with meat+boiled egg+ currants+olives+onion+some other ingrediends. Then chicken, ham and cheese, corn and onion, blue cheese, chorizo and green onions... There´s a wide variety of flavours depending on the filling and the region you visit in our country. Thank you BBC Learning for such interesting topics you post!

    Hidalgo, Mexico was home of many british miners who brought football and pasties. In Mexico pasties are prepared of different fillings such as al pastor meat or mole with chicken. 👌🏻

      Wow...all of my life I thinked pasty with potato was originary from Salta, a province in the north of Argentina. In facts it's called "empanadas salteñas". Now results that exist the same across the world!..are not pasty arabian?. Samsa, pasty or empanada...it's yummy, it doesn't matter the name ☺️

  • @haveaniceday6438

    Hi, in Mexico in the magic village of Real del Monte, the pasty is the most representative meal.
    This village in Mexico has its origins with the arrival back on XVII century with people from England, now I know for sure the true origins of pasty we call it " paste"

    Here in Galicia (Spain) we are experts making empanada and empanadillas, as we called them. In fact the first book of recipes it was written in 1520 in Catalonian, and some historians think that this kind of food it was bringing to Spain from Muslims, so many years before that. So that is a delicious food with a lot of history.

    Neil
    Hello. This is 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English. I’m Neil.
    Rob
    And I’m Rob.
    Neil
    Fancy a game of ‘food connections’, Rob? I’ll name a place and you say the first food that comes to mind. Ready?
    Rob
    Yeah, sure, let’s go!
    Neil
    Italy.
    Rob
    Erm…’pizza’ - or ‘lasagne’.
    Rob
    New York?
    Neil
    ‘Hot dogs’, of course. Or maybe ‘bagels’. How about… Cornwall from the UK?
    Rob
    If it’s Cornwall, it must be the famous ‘Cornish pasty’, right?
    Neil
    That’s right! Cornwall, the region which forms the south-western tip of Britain, is as famous for its pasties as New York is for hot dogs. In this programme we’ll be finding out all about Cornish pasties. We’ll hear how it’s gone from humble beginnings to become a symbol of Cornish identity and spread around the world to Jamaica, Argentina and Brazil.
    Rob
    But what exactly is a pasty, Neil? Somewhere between a pie and a sandwich, right? A piece of pastry which is turned over and crimped along the side to make two corners…
    Neil
    … and filled with different ingredients - which brings me to my quiz question for today, Rob. What is the traditional filling in an authentic Cornish pasty? Is it:
    a) Chicken, avocado and brie
    b) Beef, potato and turnip
    c) Pork, onion and chorizo
    Rob
    Well, chorizo is Spanish isn’t it? And avocado with brie doesn’t sound traditionally Cornish, so I’ll say b) beef, potato and turnip.
    Neil
    OK, Rob. We’ll find out later if you were right. What’s for sure is that the Cornish pasty has had a long history as BBC Radio 4’s The Food Programme discovered. They spoke to Dr Polly Russell, a public life curator at the British Library. Here she is reading from one of the earliest mentions of pasties from the late 17th century:
    Polly Russell, Public Life Curator, British Library
    There’s a lovely bit here where he’s describing what a housewife in Hertfordshire does and he’s talking about her way to make pork pies and pork pasties: pies may be made and baked either raised in paste earthen pans or in pewter dishes or in the shape of a turnover, two-cornered pasties. So that’s a very early reference to a pasty in the shape, I think, that we know it but also being made specifically for labourers - to be feeding labourers on a farm at harvest time.
    Rob
    The earliest pasties were made in pewter dishes - a traditional cooking plate made of a silver-coloured metal called ‘pewter’.
    Neil
    And they were eaten by agricultural labourers - workers doing physical farm work during harvest time - the weeks in autumn when crops like wheat are cut and collected from the fields.
    Rob
    But it wasn’t only farmers and labourers who ate pasties. As well as its farms and fishing, Cornwall was famous for tin mines, as Ruth Huxley of the Cornish Pasty Association explains:
    Ruth Huxley, Cornish Pasty Association
    Pasties would have been eaten by lots of people who went to work but it just worked perfectly down mines, and Cornwall became the world capital of mining. And so lots of pasties were made, lots of pasties were eaten and then that mining community went all over the world and took the pasty with them.
    Neil
    Pasties were eaten by hungry workers involved in the mining industry - digging up materials such as coal or metals like gold, or in Cornwall tin, from the ground.
    Rob
    So far we’ve been talking about Cornwall. But you said the Cornish pasty has spread around the world, Neil. How did that happen?
    Neil
    Well, that’s connected to the tin miners we just talked about. Here’s Polly Russell again:
    Polly Russell, Public Life Curator, British Library
    This is replicated, not just in Mexico but with migrants moving to America, to Minnesota, to Canada, to Australia. So anyone who travels to many of those places now will see foods which are incredibly reminiscent and familiar and just like Cornish pasties.
    Neil
    In the 19th century, many Cornish tin miners emigrated, moving abroad to start a better life. Their pasty recipes were replicated - or copied exactly, in the new places where they landed, from America to Australia.
    Rob
    And that’s why in many places around the world you can find food which is reminiscent of pasties - meaning it reminds you of something similar, in this case the original Cornish pasty… with its traditional filling of… what’s was your quiz question again, Neil?
    Neil
    Ah, yes. I asked you what the traditional Cornish pasty filling was? You said…
    Rob
    I said b) beef, potato and turnip.
    Neil
    And you were right! ‘Keslowena’, Rob - that’s Cornish for ‘congratulations’!
    Rob
    ‘Heb grev’, Neil - that’s ‘no problem’!
    Neil
    In fact those other fillings - chorizo, avocado and brie - really did feature in pasties entered for this year’s Annual World Pasty Championships, held in Cornwall every spring. Other pasty-inspired ideas include Argentinian chimichurri empanadas and spicy Jamaican patties.
    Rob
    So the pasty is still going strong, both in Cornwall and around the world.
    Neil
    Today we’ve been discussing Cornish pasties - a kind of filled pastry from the south-west of England, originally made in pewter dishes - a silver-coloured metal dish.
    Rob
    Pasties were eaten by agricultural labourers - farm workers bringing in the autumn harvest - the time when crops are cut and collected from the fields, and also by workers in the tin mining industry - digging up metals like tin from underground.
    Neil
    Later, when these miners emigrated to new lands, pasties were replicated - cooked again in the same way.
    Rob
    In fact Cornish miners moved to so many new countries that today, almost every corner of the world has food reminiscent of - or reminding you of, the original Cornish pasty.
    Neil
    That’s all for today. Join us again soon for more topical discussion and vocabulary on 6 Minute English. Bye for now!
    Rob
    Bye.

    I have done some research, and no, the pasty was not born in Cornwall. It dates back to the Persian times. And from there it spread all over the eastern world. The Muslins invaded Spain in 711 AD. Among the food they introduced was the empanadilla o empanada (name given in Argentina). The Empanada was brought to Argentina when the Spanish invaded and looted the American continent in the 15th Century.
