Running late again tonight, I stopped in the Pasty Central office behind the Hut, and was greeted by the smiles of Toivo and Eino ...and Ellie. I don't know the whole story yet, but it looks like this famous Secret Pasty Sauce will soon be available again. We carried it for years more than a decade ago, and when it was pulled off the market, we had an outpouring of demand if ever it should return.
Very cool! We still have a bottle of the famous sauce, tho it is waaaaay beyond the expiration date. Kept it for old time's sake!

I loved Toivo and Eino's and will buy it again if it becomes available.
I hope its okay, but I would like to give a shout out to my current favorite hot sauce - Ray's Polish Fire. Made in the Keweenaw.

It does have a tomato base and the bottle we have is shaped more like a ketchup bottle than the one pictured by Charlie.

I’m not privy to Toivo and Eino’s secret 11 herbs and spices recipe (mostly because I can’t read Finnish.) But while they were out busy deer hunting and smelting the past ten years instead of making secret sauce, I had to come up with a replacement. I found that mixing some Sriracha hot chili sauce with ketchup makes for a passable substitute. Remember: FOR USE IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS ONLY!!!

Charlie: You keep on running as late as you need to.....
Thoughts and prayers, still, go out for you and Edie. Hope all is a little better...:O)

Oh yes, Ellie's picture brings on a big smile! Such a darling little girl. Pasty's Facebook page sure has been interesting!

Waveaction (lakelover): Thank You. It is truly amazing how it does not take so much time, to say a kind word, to think of someone else....:O)
