Yorkshire pudding is made from batter that consists of flour, eggs, and milk or water. Yorkshire pudding batter is similar to pancake batter. This pastry is usually served as a side dish with roast meat and gravy. Sometimes it is also served as a dessert topped with sugar, jam, or golden syrup.
The exact origin of this dish is unclear. The first recipe was published in 1737 under the title “Dripping pudding”; the name “Yorkshire pudding” was first used in 1747. It still remains a very popular dish in Britain. An American version of Yorkshire pudding is called a popover.
To celebrate National Yorkshire Pudding Day, try your hand at cooking this pastry. First, beat 2 eggs together until light. Add 1 1/3 cup milk, 1 cup flour, and 1 tsp salt. Beat well, cover, and let stand for 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 450 °F. Fill muffin cups 1/4 full of beef dripping or oil and put in the oven until the fat is sizzling hot. Then fill each cup 1/2 full of batter, place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes, gradually lowering the temperature by 25 degrees every 5 minutes.
