Richard Holden emphasized the cultural importance of pie and mash, stating, "It's part of a campaign to celebrate and really promote pie and mash, which has spread out from its beginnings in central and east London, down the Thames Gateway and out into the world." This highlights the dish's influence and legacy in British cuisine, illustrating how it has transcended its origins to become a beloved staple.
Holden noted that, "There's a geographical scheme that covers things from specific areas, like champagne and Cornish pasties, but there's also a traditional methods scheme which is what we're trying to get this one covered by." This underlines the serious intent behind the TSG application and the importance of traditional methods in maintaining culinary heritage.
