What does BRIDIE mean in Scrabble?
noun
Scots
A Scottish half-moon pastry folded around a filling of minced beef and onion.
The bridie comes from Forfar in Angus, where bakers have sold it for generations, and it is sometimes called a Forfar bridie. It differs from a Cornish pasty in being folded over rather than crimped along the top, and it contains no potato or turnip. Tradition says the name came from a woman called Bridget, who sold the pies at markets, though the story is uncertain.
