Starry Gazey Pie: A Mouthwatering Tradition from Mousehole, Cornwall This delightful image showcases a scrumptious example of Starry Gazey Pie, a unique and mouthwatering dish that has been a cherished tradition in the quaint Cornish town of Mousehole for centuries. Prepared and served up at the historic Ship Inn on Tom Bawcocks Eve, which falls on December 23rd, this pie is unlike any other. According to local legend, the town of Mousehole once faced a dire predicament. The stormy weather had left the fishermen with no catch, and Christmas was just around the corner. In a brave and courageous act, a local fisherman named Tom Bawcott ventured out to sea during the storm, braving the elements to bring back seven different types of fish for his community. In honor of Tom's bravery, the town came together to create this extraordinary pie, filled with the freshly caught fish heads and tails, and baked to perfection. The Starry Gazey Pie is a true testament to the history and resilience of the people of Mousehole. The pie's unique appearance, with the fish heads and tails sticking out of the crust, is a sight to behold, and the savory aroma is enough to make anyone's mouth water. The pie is garnished with parsley, adding a touch of color and freshness to the dish. This image transports us back to the 1980s, when the Starry Gazey Pie was still a beloved and cherished tradition in Mousehole. The pie's rich history, coupled with its mouthwatering taste, makes it a must-try for anyone visiting Cornwall during the holiday season.
