Default Yorkshire Pudding

2 eggs
4oz plain flour
pinch salt
milk
lard

put one egg into a half pint mug and fill up to the top with milk

whisk with the other egg into the flour and salt until smooth

Now (Very important) allow to stand for minimum one hour. Longer if
possible.

Have the oven ready to be very hot

put the tin onto the fire and when the fat is sizzling pour in the
batter

Put into the hot oven

after the pudding has risen turn down the heat and continue to cook
until ready

I hope that helps

If you have any questions please ask

Well, I found the right person!
Thank you Ophelia
Also Debbie gave me a recipe and I can see that they are a little different.
I will try both and then I will keep the better one (for me, of coarse).
Cheers and
regards to your beautiful Scotland

Ok if you make a big one ie 28cm x 18cm it will be 25-30 minutes at
220c Once it is risen and crunchy it is ready. It must be a deep golden
colour

If you find that the pudding, when risen, begins to get dark turn down
the heat. Many ovens are different. In my oven I cook it for 10
minutes at 220c and then turn down to 180c for the remainder of the
time.

Ohh! Yes! And what kind of function do you use for the oven? Do you put on
"wind function" or electric fire up and down, or only down?
Sorry for all these questions but I don't want make errors!

Please ask all the questions you wish to ask)

As I said before... all ovens behave differently. You could try it my
way and see what happens. I think you will have to experiment a few
times until you get it the right timing for your own oven. But.. it
is worth it

At times when I have a new oven or have moved house... I have had to be
careful until I can see how the oven will behave

AS I said... I put it into the oven 220c and after 10 minutes turn it
down to 180c for 20 + minutes.

There should be no uncooked batter within it but it shouldn't be burnt
either.

I expect you know that you need very good gravy to serve with it

It puffs even more beautifully if you "let it stand (rest) in the
refrigerator. The chilled batter going into the very hot grease will
make it puff more than if you just pour it in at room temperature.

Perhaps I didn't explain well what I mean. I would like to know if you use
ventilated oven or other functions.

This is another thing that I don't understand. Is gravy a sort of meat
sauce?
If yes, how do you eat? Do you put it over the puddings?

No Pandora, ragu is sauce with meat in it (at least that's what my mother
says)...gravy is often made using the juices left in the bottom of the
roasting pan when you have cooked a roast meat, you drain off some of the
fat, add flour to make a roux and scrape up all the yummy bits in the pan,
then add liquid (water, stock, whatever) to make the gravy

Well now Ophelia, I have heard of Yorkshire Pudding before but I don't
know if I want to try it...did you leave out the sugar? What would
folks over here in the "Colonies" call Yorkshire pudding...an

To add another level of copmplexity to this discussion, many
Italian-Americans call Marinara sauce "gravy". I don't know how long
ago this started, but it has been the case for a long time.

Hi Bill)

It is not sweet. It is eaten with beef and veggies and gravy

It is made with similar batter to pancakes but the batter puffs up and
becomes crispy

Quite, except heavier. I've only heard of them being
made using drippings from a roast as the fat, but I'm
sure there are other methods.

Yes, like a popover in that it's full of air in the middle.
I've got a horrific craving for them since these thread
started, I am helpless for popovers.

> Help Debbie! I don't know what a popover is


They are light breads that are made individually in
like ... muffin pans. They puff up and are all air
inside, with a yummy crust. Plenty of room for
lots of butter. (smile)

Ahh thank you. I sometimes make YP in muffin tins. It still comes out
the same as a big one though It is just quicker to cook that way.

Basically they are the same thing. A popover is baked in a greased pan..
and Yorkshire Pudding is cooked in the meat drippings.

In the Joy of Cooking, it is the same recipe for the batter. If you don't
have enough meat drippings for the yorkies, you can use melted butter or oil.

Not everyone who is named Maria is Italian; it's also a Spanish name and
French (Marie).

Of course. But she said:" That's what my mother say"...so I must think that
her mother (knowing the italian ragù better than her daughter) is an Italian
married with an American.
In my life before I was an investigator ))))))

Yes, almost exactly - so think "plain popover". Popovers have a lot
of variations... and yorkshire pudding has - one.

I certainly does, but don't over do the drippings! *I made that
mistake once* (think of a puddle of grease on top). Use just enough
to coat the bottom and sides, discard the rest.
