Etymology
The term 'potpie' dates back to the 14th century, deriving from the combination of 'pot' and 'pie'. Originally, the phrase referred to any pie cooked in a pot, often over an open fire. The concept of enclosing meat and vegetables within pastry is seen in various cooking traditions around the world. The medieval cookbooks featured multiple recipes for pies, suggesting they were quite popular. The potpie became particularly prominent in British cuisine, where it evolved into the hearty dish enjoyed today. With the advent of convenience foods in the 20th century, frozen potpies became a staple in many households, reflecting both cultural heritage and modern convenience.
