How To Make Upper Michigan Pasties Like A Local
"Locals love their Upper Michigan Pasties. Each year, they have a tasting contest to see who will reign as the number one best tasting pasty. My love for pasties runs deep, thanks to my mother-in-law, who grew up in Ahmeek, Michigan, and attended school in nearby Calumet. She shared with me the authentic way to make Upper Michigan pasties, a tradition passed down through generations. Her family worked in the copper mines, and pasties were their go-to portable meal, ideal for carrying into the mines. These golden-brown, hearty hand pies filled with ground beef, root vegetables, and savory pastry dough became a family favorite recipe in our home."
