POTATO PASTRY
Taken from a Victory Cookbook - Nostalgic Food and Facts From 1940 - 1954 - Chapter quotes 'We found it was much more difficult to make puddings than it had been in the past, but with a little imagination we managed to conjure up appetising ends to the meal. We made good use of seasonal fruits and when cooking these sweetened the fruit with saccharin to save sugar, the crushed tablets were always added to the fruit after it was cooked.this is pastry that should be used a great deal as it helps to lighten the flour and makes our rations of fat go much further.

WOOLTON PIE
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!

POTATO PASTRY DOUGH
Adapted slightly from Vicki's Vegan Kitchen (Square One (2011)). This is a super tender, but easy to work with pastry dough that can be modified for savoury tarts by simply removing the sugar and nutmeg. This recipe is best suited for bottom crusts, but rolled thinly it can be used as a topper too. This is also delicious made with sweet potatoes, especially for apple pie.
