Yorkshire Pudding Busting The Myth

  • Today, we will bust one of the cooking myths. We have been lectured for years on using screaming hot oil and pans to make Yorkshire Puddings! This leaves a kitchen question: Is that the only way? Today, I will show you how that may not be true!
    If you think it's not true, leave a comment. Or do you believe the oil and pans must be screaming hot because that is how you have always made Yorkshire Puddings!
    Yorkshire pudding originated in Yorkshire, England. The dish is a staple of British cuisine and has a rich history dating back to the 18th century. The earliest recorded recipe appears in a book titled "The Whole Duty of a Woman" published in 1737, where it was referred to as "A Dripping Pudding"-the drippings being the fat from roast meat.
    The name "Yorkshire Pudding" was popularized later. It was associated with the region of Yorkshire because cooks there were reputed to be exceptionally skilled at making them high and well-risen. This reputation was possibly due to the high heat from the region's coal, which was essential for achieving the dish's characteristic puffiness-screaming hot pans in a screaming hot oven!
    When Hannah Glasse's influential cookbook "The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy" was published in 1747, the recipe had evolved, and she was the first to refer to it specifically as "Yorkshire Pudding." Her version solidified its status as a critical component of the British Sunday roast, especially with roast beef.
    Yorkshire Pudding has been cherished in Britain for centuries for its taste and practicality, as it was initially used to use the fat that dripped from the roast meat, cooking the batter beneath the meat as it roasted. This tradition of practicality and deliciousness continues to make Yorkshire Pudding a beloved part of British culinary heritage.

    I married into a Welsh family. My in laws had lived in England a few years. They made the best Yorkshire pudding ever. My first experience was rather comical. I came home late from working the evening shift. Everyone had gone to bed, but they saved me leftovers. Beef stew and Yorkshire pudding.
    I found the stew easy enough. It was delicious. I couldn’t find any pudding in the fridge, but saw the “pastry shells” on the counter. Thinking that they were a dessert, I spooned in some black raspberry preserves, topped it off with whipped cream, and ate it like a cream puff. Because the preserves had been left out, I assumed that was how they enjoyed it.
    The next morning, we all had a laugh. I’ve never put preserves on them again, but I must admit that they were rather tasty.

    I'm in the south (US) and had never heard of a Yorkshire pudding til I saw your original video on them. I followed it and came out with beautiful Yorkshire puddings the first time I made them! I've used bacon fat but I don't anymore because they're just as delicious using vegetable oil and it's just simpler to use that instead. The trick is to be patient and let the batter sit for the 20-30 minutes if not a little longer and to have a really hot pan to pour it into. Thanks for another great video:)
    Edit: I just realized you didn't put the oil in the pan before warming it! So this is even better. I'm going to make these right now using the air fryer. I can be making these all day and freezing them. Thank you!

    Maybe the myth stemmed from when everyone used lard for cooking. Heating up the stored lard might remove any bacteria that may have got in while it was sat in the larder (pre-fridge days).

      At 5000 ft I'd add 5 or 10 mins to the cooking time. Can't do much about how hot your oven goes. If they still don't rise then add a teaspoon of baking powder in the batter to give them a lift. I've cooked 'at altitude' at a friends place on Donner Summit in California - around 5000ft - and it definitely changes the way stuff behaves.

    great video rik as a fellow Yorkshire man I'd like to add that the pudding was a cunning way of filling the belly before the expensive meat arrived. As a child I enjoyed them with cheese (Yorkshire cheese from Swaledale) and jam. Even today I will make them as a snack. I'm not sure if this is true, but I think the fresher the egg the better the rise - but that is only because the odd failure I have had used old eggs (2 weeks beyond the best before date but still safe). Don't play with egg dates in countries that wash the eggs and they need to be refrigerated

    Almost perfect. I'm old school: 8 oz flour, half pint of 80:20 milk/water. I use 2 large or three medium eggs. Pretty much like you but it might help the decimally challenged Yankees round here. The quantities aren't critical, within reason. So far I think you've got it right. BUT...
    I find using dripping rather than oil really helps the flavour. It's also lower in toxic trans fat, if you care about that. And I find that having the oil hot rather than warm (not spitting, just hot) helps the rise. But I would be very happy with the result you got. That may be partly a function of the "air fryer" (basically a fan oven) which not all of us have. Done with warm oil in a conventional oven, these may disappoint. (I am not a Yorkshireman by birth but have been resident since 1989 ;-)

    Made Yorkshire puddings for the first time ever last week - they were so light and delicious but I did worry about carrying the heated oil out of the oven to pour the batter in so I am definitely going to use this method next time. I wish I had known this recipe decades ago when I was raising my children on my own on a very tight budget. I used to make dumplings that I would drop batter into the soup or stew just to fill them up but man, these would have been so much better! 😀 P.S. - I'm Aussie so did not grow up with these, but wish I had. I had heard of them but thought they were from Yorkshire and only cooked there. LOL
