THE BEST YORKSHIRE PUDDING



The Best Yorkshire Pudding image

Our classic pudding is deeply savory, making it the perfect accompaniment for roasted meats. The beef fat adds both richness and flavor but also keeps the pudding from sticking to the pan. Be sure to let the dough rest before baking. This allows the flour to hydrate and create the soft pillowy texture that Yorkshire puddings are known for. It's also important to preheat the pan; the puddings won't rise and puff unless your tin is literally smoking hot.

Categories     condiment

Time 1h10m

Yield 12 puddings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
3 large eggs
Kosher salt
1/4 cup rendered beef fat (see Cook's Note)

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.

THE BEST YORKSHIRE PUDDING



The Best Yorkshire Pudding image

Here in Yorkshire you can't have a Sunday roast or Christmas dinner without Yorkshire Puddings. This recipe was adapted from one featured on Gordon Ramsey's F-Word television program. If you have any leftover, try eating them with golden syrup, they are just as good sweet. If you can't find dripping you can use lard or vegetable oil. They work best in a Yorkshire pudding tray, with indivdual molds, but you van use a deep oven tray approx. 8x10 and make one large pudding, that you can cut into individual portions. Preparation time includes time for the batter to rest.

Time 55m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

225 g plain flour (1 3/4 cup)
4 eggs, beaten
300 ml milk (10 fl oz)
1 1/2 tablespoons beef drippings, for batter
100 g beef drippings, for cooking (3 1/2 oz)
salt

Steps:

  • Mix the flour and salt and sift them into a large mixing bowl.
  • Make a well and add the eggs, 1 1/2tbsp of the beef dripping, half the milk and beat everything until smooth and all the lumps have gone.
  • Whisk in the remaining milk.
  • Set batter aside and allow to rest for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 450°F/230°C/Gas 8.
  • Place a spoonful of dripping in each pudding mold and heat in the oven until piping hot and starting to smoke.
  • Whisk the batter again and very carefully pour into the hot pudding tins, filling each compartment to about 3/4.
  • Bake immediately for approximately 10-15 minutes.
  • Don't open the oven door apart from when you need to check if they are done for the first time after 10 minutes.
  • If you're making one large pudding, it will take 30-40 minutes.
  • They should be golden brown, risen on the outside with a deep depression in the centre. (sometimes they rise in the middle as well, but that doesn't really matter. ;D).

Tips:

  • Use plain flour for a lighter Yorkshire pudding. Strong flour will result in a denser texture.
  • Make sure the batter is well rested before cooking. This will allow the flour to absorb the liquid and result in a smoother texture.
  • When adding the eggs to the batter, whisk them in one at a time. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will result in a tough Yorkshire pudding.
  • Heat the oil in the muffin tins until it is very hot before adding the batter. This will help the Yorkshire puddings to rise quickly.
  • Don't open the oven door during cooking. This will cause the Yorkshire puddings to collapse.
  • Serve the Yorkshire puddings immediately with your favorite gravy.

Conclusion:

Yorkshire pudding is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of main courses. With a little practice, you can easily make Yorkshire puddings that are even better than your grandma's. These tips will help you make perfect Yorkshire puddings every time.
