Cold Meat Pie Very good pies can be made from the remains of cold cooked meat. The meat may either be cut in small thin slices or minced. A mixture of meats may be used, and a little pickled or salted meat, such as bacon, ham, tongue, &c., used along with fresh meat, will always help to give flavour. Seasoning should be added according to the kind of meat used. Then the meat should be moistened with some very good gravy or sauce. Remains of brown, tomato, curry sauce, &e., can all be utilised for this purpose, and will only help to make the pie more savoury. When using white meat, such as veal, rabbit, or chicken, a good white sauce, parsley sauce, caper sauce, &c., can be used. Then again, if there is not sufficient meat to fill the pie-dish required, some cooked vegetable, rice, or macaroni may be added.
