Stargazy pie—Cornish pie made of eggs, potatoes, and pilchards (sardines) in a pastry crust, the fish heads staring straight up. It is from the Cornish fishing village of Mousehole, traditionally eaten with 7 varieties of fish during the village’s Tom Bawcock’s Eve Festival, December 23. He was a 15th century fisherman who saved the village from starvation.
My 8th great grandmother, Marie Southwood Suddeth, was Cornish. (this recipe was not passed down)
