1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 lb shortening
1/2 - 3/4 cup cold water
1 egg, beaten
2 teaspoons white vinegar

3 cups ham, fully cooked and diced into 1/4-inch pieces
2 tablespoons green peppers, finely diced
2 tablespoons pimientos or 2 tablespoons celery, finely diced

1
In a large bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, salt and baking powder. Cut in shortening, half at a time, until crumbly. Combine 1/2 cup water, egg and vinegar; add all at once to flour mixture and toss with a fork until dough forms a ball. Add remaining water only if necessary. Wrap tightly and refrigerate for several hours.
2
Meanwhile, combine all filling ingredients. On a lightly floured surface, roll out a fourth of the dough to 1/8-in. thickness. Using a 3-1/2- to 4-in. round cutter, cut dough into circles. Place on ungreased baking sheets.
3
Spread a scant tablespoon of filling on half of each circle. Moisten edge slightly with water and fold over, sealing with the tines of a fork. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
4
In a small bowl, beat egg with water; brush tops of pasties. Sprinkle with poppy or sesame seeds.
5
Bake at 400u00b0 for 15-20 minutes or until golden. Serve warm or cold.
