ROSE MARY'S YORKSHIRE PUDDING
I use this recipe every time I make the Horseradish Crusted Prime Rib. It really does taste great with the Au Jus Gravy. This version of the recipe is adapted from Tyler Florence recipe, and I prefer it to any others that I have made before. My family loves this version much better than another recipe that I had used.

Steps:
- 1. PREHEAT OVEN TO 450 DEGREES F. Measure equal amounts of oil into a 12 cup muffin pan, and place in oven to get really hot, but not burning while you prepare the flour mixture.
- 2. Sift the flour and salt in one bowl. In a separate bowl beat together the eggs with the milk until light and frothy. Then stir in the dry ingredients till well incorporated and no visible lumps, either use a hand mixer or heavy duty whisk.
- 3. Carefully remove the muffin tin from the oven, and slowly fill each cup about 1/3 full at first, and then if there is some left over add to each cup till all is used up, and all are equally filled.
- 4. Place the muffin tin back into the oven and cook until puffed and dry, about 18 to 20 minutes. Serve with pan gravy from the roast.
- 5. NOTE: Yorkshire pudding is more like a muffin than a pudding, but is traditionally served with Prime Rib, and the Au Jus gravy that comes from the roast. When cooked it is hallow on the inside, it puffs up and pops over, sort of like a popover. It is used to sop up all of the gravy that comes from the roast.FYI: They are not that great if you use them the next day.

VEGAN YORKSHIRE PUDDINGS
Traditional Yorkshire puddings, like popovers and soufflés, rely on eggs and dairy for their crowning puff and custardy center. Vegan cooks use neither, so this savory recipe is a particularly impressive workaround by Mary McCartney, who stopped eating meat in in the late 1970s when her parents, Sir Paul and Linda, became vegetarians and activists. The structure here comes from protein-rich chickpea flour and aquafaba, Italian for "chickpea water," and the rise from baking powder and cider vinegar. The recipe needs to be followed closely for best results, particularly the oven temperature, the material and size of the muffin tin (metal and standard 3-ounce cups) and the amount of oil in each cup.

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.
Tips:
- For a light and fluffy Yorkshire pudding, make sure the batter is well-rested before cooking. You can let it rest for up to 30 minutes, or even overnight in the refrigerator.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough and dense Yorkshire pudding.
- Use a hot oven for cooking Yorkshire pudding. This will help the pudding rise quickly and evenly.
- Don't open the oven door during cooking. Opening the oven door can cause the pudding to collapse.
- Serve Yorkshire pudding immediately after it is cooked. It is best enjoyed when it is hot and crispy.

With its golden brown exterior and light and fluffy interior, Yorkshire pudding is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. Whether you serve it with roast beef, chicken, or gravy, Yorkshire pudding is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a side dish that is both easy to make and delicious, give Yorkshire pudding a try.
