So I want to make some mince pies this year to try and recreate the ones my mum used to make when I was a kid. However unlike shop bought ones that are quite short in texture she used to make pastry that was more... shiny and held together better.
I've dug through every pile of recipes I have of hers but can't find what I'm looking for. I'm an ok (if novice) baker. Any suggestions? I know she used to do a milk wash on them at least (as that was my vvv important baking job when I was about 3)
Thanks in advance.
