A pasty ( (the 'a' pronounced as in 'cat'), ), known in (West) Cornish dialect as tiddy/teddy oggy/oggin,Recipe for Tiddy Oggy from ITV 22 October 2007 http://www.itv.com/Lifestyle/BritainsBestDish/Weeksix/Friday/Somersettiddyoggy/Discussion of Tiddy Oggy word derivation from cornishpasties.org http://www.cornishpasties.org.uk/tiddyoggy.htm and sometimes as pastie in the United States,p. 321 Columbia Guide to Standard American English http://books.google.com/books?id=L2ChiO2yEZ0C&pg=PA321&dq=pastieCompany website using term for product http://www.mackinawpastie.com/ is a filled pastry case, commonly associated with Cornwall in England. It differs from a pie as it is made by placing the filling on a flat pastry shape, usually a circle, and folding it to wrap the filling, crimping the edge to form a seal. The result is a raised semicircular package. The traditional Cornish pasty is filled with beef, sliced potato, swede (also known as a Swedish turnip) and onion, and baked. Pasties with many different fillings are made; some shops specialise in selling all sorts of pasties.
