Yorkshire Pudding

Gingerbee's Note:

My mother-in-law was from Yorkshire. In celebration of my joining the family, she prepared a lovely Sunday roast with all the trimmings...this pudding was a "first" for me and wasn't the last. Whenever I want to do something special for guests, I prepare a lovely Yorkshire Pudding, Marion-style!

This was really good and quite easy! I let my milk come to room temperature as well as the eggs. I find that by doing this you get larger and more "fluffy" Yorkshire Pudding. Very tasty and will try again!

This was great! I made it with Prime Rib. It was also fun watching it bake with all the bubbling it did. I made it for our gourmet club and everyone loved it.It tasted great and was really easy to make. I also liked the fact that it was made ahead, sat, and was baked just when the prime rib came out to rest.

Thank you so very much for this recipe. I always make Yorkshire Pudding for Christmas dinner. I love that I can now make the batter ahead of time. It will lighten up the work load a bit. Tastes great!
