Bin Dutchman,
Farm Wife Chosen As
Best Pot Pie Maker
LOU ANN GOOD
Lancaster Farming Staff
LANCASTER (Lancaster Co.)
Every Saturday night during
Ruth Warmer's growing up years,
pot pie was served at her home.
“1 never got tired of it,” said
Ruth, who watched her mother and
grandmother dump in a little of this
and a pinch of that
When Ruth married David
Wanner, she started cooking pot
pie by the dump and pinch method
also. As the Wanners added four
children to the family, Ruth per
fected the pot pie to the point that
friends and family absolutely insist
that she bring pot pie whenever
there is a covered dish meal at
Grange, church, or family
functions.
‘They always tell me. ‘you have
the best pot pie ever,’" Ruth said of
her acquaintances.
Well, those folks know good pot
pie when they taste it, for at the
Pennfield Farms Chicken Pot Pie
Cook-Off held Monday, seven
judges agreed that Ruth’s pot pie
was the best.
“As soon as we (the judges)
tasted it, we knew it was a winner,”
Lancaster Farming, Saturday, February 20, 1993-B9
said C.S. Keys of WGAL-TV, a
judge for the contest that attracted
hundreds of bystanders.
Another judge, Betty Groff,
cookbook author and owner of
Groff’s Farm Restaurant, agreed.
“It wasn’t too doughy. It was light
The taste and texture were just
right.”
Ruth said that she entered the
contest at the urging of her ousin.
Because Ruth needed to submit a
recipe with exact measurements', it
took her half a day to figure out
exactly how much of each ingre
dient she was using in her dump
and pinch method.
The Wanners moved recently
from Narvon to Sandy Hill, where
they put up a free stall milking par
lor for 83 cows. Ruth helps with
the cows and is working toward
establishing a fruit and vegetable
market She planted 800 strawber
ry plants, which she estimates has
multiplied to 8,000 plants that she
and her family will pick to sell.
For her first-place win, Ruth
received $3OO.
Second place and $l5O went to
Roberta Householder of Lancas
ter. She entered the contest at the
insistance of her husband Marlin.
In 1969, she entered her pot pie
recipe in a newspaper contest.
Although she won first prize in the
Pennsylvania Dutch category,
Roberta said that she changed the
pot pie slightly for this contest.
