TOUTIERE 
1/2 lb. ground veal
1/2 lb. ground pork
1 sm. onion, chopped
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. celery salt
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
1/2 c. water
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/4 to 1/2 c. bread crumbs
1 recipe pastry for 2 crust pie

Place all ingredients except bread crumbs in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook uncovered for 20 minutes over medium heat. Remove from heat and add a few spoonfuls of bread crumbs. Let stand for 10 minutes. If fat is sufficiently absorbed by bread crumbs do not add more. If not, continue in same manner.

Cool and pour into pastry lined pan. Cover with crust and bake at 400 degrees for 50 minutes or until golden brown. Serve hot. A cooked toutiere can be frozen 4-5 months and does not have to be re-thawed before serving.
