THREE HUNDRED YEAR OLD TRADITIONAL YORKSHIRE PUDDING
For this recipe and others follow this link.
Now I love cooking, but these big beauties always seemed beyond me. The Yorkshire Puddings always came out flat and not at all like the picture I am about to post. Then I met and married my lovely husband, who is a Yorkshire Man! The secret to a great Yorkshire Pudding was revealed and it is my absolutely pleasure to share the secret with you. We are making these today as we do every Sunday.
INGREDIENTS
This makes around 12 of these lovely puddings.
4 oz flour
Pinch of Salt
2 Large Eggs
10 Fl oz of milk
Oil for Cooking
Mix the flour, eggs and salt together with a fork to a smooth mixture.
Add the milk and continue to mix in until smooth.
Now you have to get out your whisk and whisk away, the mixture will form a set of bubbles. Set aside.
Every time you walk in the kitchen, give it another whisk until bubbles appear. The more times you do this the lighter your Yorkshire Puddings will be.
Heat the oven to around 220 centigrade. Put a drop of oil in each section of a pan similar to the above.
Put in the oven and heat until when you pull it out the oil is so hot, it is SMOKING! This is the difference between a flat Yorkshire or a great big light and fluffy one!
When you are happy that it is hot enough, fill each section about a third of the way up. It will sizzle as you put it in, if it does not then your fat is not hot enough. Put straight in the oven, middle shelf and don't be tempted to look for at least 20 minutes (unless of course you have a glass door, then you can enjoy every moment).
Usually they take around 45 minutes. Turn out and enjoy.
