As a fully-fledged nation of pie lovers, it’s a fun awareness week to get behind. With so many great recipes available it just falls to you to decide what kind of pie to put on your menu!

Let’s be honest, who doesn’t like a good ole’ traditional British pie; Meat and Potato, Steak, Cheese and Onion, Chicken and Mushroom, the fillings are endless yet all so tasty; therefore, Essential Cuisine are delighted it’s time to, once again, celebrate British Pie Week.

Some of our favourite recipes include the Gluten Free Fish Pie with a Smoked Cheese Crust, the Confit Duck Pie and the deliciously meaty Beef, Mushroom and Ale Pie.

Every good pie needs the best gravy or sauce. Add depth of flavour and body to your pie fillings with any of our No.1 Gravies. Why not try Essential Cuisine’s No 1 Beef Gravy to pour over a classic Meat and Potato Pie or indulge in our Gluten Free Béchamel Sauce for a creamy Chicken and Mushroom filling.

Blend our gravies with any of our Premier Jus to make an extra special gravy without compromising the taste or the gluten free qualities.

Add pie favourites to your menu over British Pie Week and enjoy a slice of the action…
