Dampen round the edge of the dough with either water, or milk!. Fold over the dough, to make a half moon shape, crimping the edges!. Make a slit to let out steam!. Brush with beaten egg to glaze!.
Cooking your Cornish Pasty Place on lightly greased metal baking tray in the middle of a preheated oven, for around 40 minutes at 450 F !. The pasty is cooked when their undersides turn brown and crisp!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

you need 5-12 sequins, depending on your preferred level of coverage you can either sew them on to a cloth backing or glue them , sewing (my usual method) is more durable and keeps the pastie flexible, but if your in a hurry glue is best!. I'm not sure what style a cornish crust is but you can vary the typical style by using glass beads, crystal (classy), or even metal beads!. Once you've sewn the beads on to the cloth backing you want to find a glue that is safe for the skin, I forget the name but I can tell you costume shops carry it!. good luck, hope my advice worked for you!
