Today on Iconic Foods, we stopped by Ashland Pot Pie Company (ashlandpotpiecompany) and tried some of their delicious hand pies! Hand pies have a tie with Virginia due to the large European immigrant community that came to know the Appalachian region as home. When they arrived, they brought some of their culinary comforts such as pie, and combined it with the rich agricultural resources of the area and made these pocket sized hand pies a tasty staple for the area. 🥧 #handpies #iconicfoods #appalachia #yourvirginia #myvpmadehistory
