Stargazy Pie

MOUSEHOLE, ENGLAND

-

Tom Bawcock’s Eve, a Christmast­ime festival held in this Cornish seaside village, celebrates a 16th-century folk hero who sailed out to fish despite dangerous storms and returned with enough catch to end a local famine. To honor the fisherman, revelers tuck into this classic savory fish pie of potatoes, eggs and white sauce, with the added flourish of intact fish heads craning their necks through the crust, as though looking up at the stars.
