WOOLTON PIE



Woolton Pie image

Woolton Pie was created by a chef at the London Savoy during World War II. It was designed to be filling while predominantly using vegetables from the garden (which were obviously unrationed). This is the traditional wartime recipe and rather bland by modern taste. Feel free to spice it up with modern day condiments, herbs and seasonings. You can also alter the vegetables to suit your personal tastes. Enjoy, keep calm, and carry on!

  • Victory Borscht. One ingredient that wasn’t always available during wartime was oil, which is why borscht became such a popular dinnertime option. You’ll start with a beef or vegetable broth base and then add a ton of fresh veggies – onions, beets, celery, tomatoes, carrots, etc.
  • Woolton Pie. Woolton pie was popular in Britain in World War II. It’s a bit like vegetable pot pie, only the crust is much different because you’ll make it from mashed potatoes, along with the flour and shortening.
  • The National Wheatmeal Loaf. The wheatmeal loaf is another World War II recipe, and if you’re looking for a simple way to make bread, you’ll like it, as well.
  • Spam Fritters. Spam fritters may seem like a super weird thing to make, but they were cheap and contained 15% of a person’s daily needed protein, so they were pretty popular.
  • Homity Pie. Homity pie may not be familiar, but I’m here to tell you that it’s incredible. And I mean that without any disclaimer. It’s incredible, not “incredible for a wartime recipe.”
