YORKSHIRE PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, flour and salt. Do not overmix. Allow the batter to rest 30 minutes at room temperature.
• Add a teaspoon of fat to each cup of a 12-cup muffin tin and transfer to the oven to heat, about 5 to 7 minutes. Once hot, divide batter equally to fill the cups about halfway, and return the muffin tin for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the puddings are golden brown and crisp. Serve immediately.

THE BEST YORKSHIRE PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Whisk the flour, milk, eggs and 2 teaspoons salt in a medium bowl until smooth-be sure not to over mix. Let sit for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, spoon 1 teaspoon beef fat into each hole of a 12-cup muffin tin. Place the tin in the oven and cook until the fat melts and the pan is very hot, 5 to 6 minutes. Working quickly, pour the batter evenly into the muffin tins, filling each tin about halfway. Bake until the puddings are golden brown and very puffed, about 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

YORKSHIRE PUDDING

Steps:

• Make the batter before removing the prime rib from the oven: Combine the eggs and half-and-half in a bowl and whisk until they're totally combined. Throw the flour and 2 teaspoons salt into a sifter and sift them straight into the bowl. Whisk until it's nice and smooth, then refrigerate until the prime rib is ready.
• After the beef is removed from the pan, increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F. Use a slotted spoon to remove the peppercorns, herbs and excess salt from the drippings. Pour the remaining drippings into a separate container. They should be speckled and lovely!
• Pour a small amount (about 1/2 teaspoon or so) of the drippings into each cup of a standard muffin pan and place the pan in the hot oven for a couple of minutes, or until just before the drippings begin to smoke.
• Carefully remove the pan from the oven and immediately fill the muffin cups about 1/2 to 2/3 full. Bake 13 to 14 minutes, or until they've "popped" about as much as they can pop. Serve them in a basket with a pretty napkin right next to the prime rib.
• Move the oven rack to the bottom and preheat the oven to 500 degrees F, then start with the seasoning: Grab the peppercorns and throw them in a big plastic bag and pound them with a rolling pin to break them open. Pull the leaves off the rosemary and thyme sprigs. Throw the crushed peppercorns into a bowl with the salt and herb leaves and add the minced garlic. Use your fingers to toss it all together, then set it aside.
• Place the beef, fat-side up, on a rack in a roasting pan. Drizzle the olive oil all over the surface and rub it in with your hands. Sprinkle the peppercorn-herb-salt mixture all over the surface of the beef, pressing it lightly with your hands.
• Roast the beef 45 minutes for the first stage. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F and insert a meat thermometer sideways into the roast. Roast the beef an additional 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes, or until the thermometer registers 120 degrees F to 135 degrees F in the center for medium rare. (The meat will continue to cook for a bit after you remove it from the oven.)
• Remove the beef from the rack and let it rest about 15 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat. When you're ready to serve, carve it into slices of your preferred width.

YORKSHIRE PUDDING

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and salt until frothy. Whisk in milk, followed by flour, until well combined. Cover and refrigerate batter at least 4 hours, and up to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees with rack set in center of oven.
• Add beef drippings to reserved pan from Standing Rib Roast and transfer to oven. Heat until hot and sizzling, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Remove batter from refrigerator and stir. Slide out roasting pan just enough to add batter all at once; batter should be very liquid and spread on its own without tilting. Bake for 12 minutes.
• Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees; rotate pan and continue baking until pudding is puffy and nicely browned, about 15 minutes more. Cut into small squares and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Add all the ingredients except the oil to a food processor with a pinch of salt and blitz until smooth. Transfer the batter to a jug, cover with cling film and leave to rest in the fridge for 1 hr.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Spoon a tsp of oil into eight holes of a muffin tin and place in the oven for 5 mins to get really hot. Remove the tin from the oven and carefully pour the batter into the hot oil. Return to the oven and bake for 25-30 mins until risen and deep golden brown.

STANDING RIB ROAST (CHEF ANNE WILLAN)

Steps:

• Remove excess fat from roast, leaving just a thin layer.
• In small bowl, combine dry mustard, sugar, and Dijon mustard. Brush mixture over fat and cut surfaces of roast. Refrigerate 2 hours to overnight.
• Set roast, rib-side down, in heavy, shallow roasting pan in 450 F oven. (Ribs act as a natural rack.) With a paring knife, score the fa and season with salt and pepper.
• Roast 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 F and continue to roast (basting every 15 minutes) until temperature reaches 125 F (medium rare). Remove roast to a platter. Let rest for 15 minutes before carving.
• GRAVY: Keep 2 tablespoons of fat from roasting pan. Set it on stove over medium heat and simmer until juices begin to darken, 1/2 minutes. Whisk in flour and cook, scraping up caramelized bits, until flour is deep golden brown, 3 minutes. Add stock and bring to boil, stirring until thickened. Season with salt and pepper.

YORKSHIRE PUDDING

Steps:

• Mix flour and salt together until blended. Make a well in the flour, add the milk, and whisk until consistent. Beat the eggs into the batter. Add water and beat again until the mixture is light and frothy. Set aside for an hour (or, if it's the day before, cover in the fridge overnight).
• If the batter has been refrigerated, allow it to come up to room temperature before using. When the roast beef is ready to come out of the oven, ready the mixture.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
• Pour off drippings from roast beef and measure out desired amount (about 1/2 cup should do). Pour drippings into a 9x12 inch baking dish and place into the oven until the drippings sizzle. Pour the batter over the drippings and bake for 30 minutes (or until the sides have risen and are golden brown). Cut into eight portions and serve immediately.

• Drizzle a little sunflower oil evenly into two 4-hole Yorkshire pudding tins or two 12-hole non-stick muffin tins and place in the oven to heat through.
• To make the batter, tip 140g plain flour into a bowl and beat in 4 eggs until smooth.
• Gradually add 200ml milk and carry on beating until the mix is completely lump-free. Season with salt and pepper.
• Pour the batter into a jug, then remove the hot tins from the oven. Carefully and evenly pour the batter into the holes.
• Place the tins back in the oven and leave undisturbed for 20-25 mins until the puddings have puffed up and browned.
• Serve immediately. You can now cool them and freeze for up to 1 month.

GIANT YORKSHIRE PUDDING

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees with a rack positioned in the lower third of the oven. Brush a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with 3 tablespoons roast drippings to coat the base and sides.
• In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, milk and the remaining 2 tablespoons roast drippings to combine. Add the flour and salt and continue to whisk until the mixture forms a loose batter.
• Transfer the baking pan to the oven and heat until warmed, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour the batter into the heated pan. Return the pan to the oven and reduce the temperature to 425 degrees. Bake until the pudding is puffy and deep golden-brown, about 40 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and serve warm. (The pudding may collapse slightly if not served immediately, but it will still be delicious.)

Steps:

• Drain the chickpeas, reserving 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon/140 grams aquafaba (chickpea liquid). (Reserve the chickpeas and any remaining liquid for another use.)
• In a large pitcher or bowl, whisk the aquafaba, vinegar and 1 1/2 cups/350 milliliters water together. Sift the all-purpose flour, chickpea flour and baking powder into a medium bowl. Add the salt and whisk together.
• Pour the combined liquids into the dry ingredients and whisk together until smooth and bubbly, about 30 seconds. Pour back into the pitcher and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• While the batter chills, heat oven to 425 degrees.
• Using a standard 12-cup metal muffin tin (with 1/2-cup cavities), preferably nonstick, add 1 teaspoon vegetable oil to each of 9 cups. About 10 minutes before the batter is done chilling, place the oiled tin in the hot oven to heat.
• Carefully remove the muffin tin from the oven. Stir the batter and pour into the muffin cups; the batter should sizzle vigorously as you add it, and each cup should be nearly full. Return to the oven.
• Bake for 30 minutes. The puddings will rise, then fall, possibly making a well on the top. Turn down the heat to 400 degrees and bake about 10 minutes more, or until the tops are deep golden brown and the insides are cooked through and just dry (peer into the well to check; the inside should be matte, not shiny). Remove from the oven, let the puddings rest for about 3 minutes, then use a spoon or spatula to lift from the tin and serve immediately.
