I once saw an American recipe that suggested that currants should be added !

Well, yorkshire pud is just a baked pancake, and they come with all sorts of fillings...

Lovely with jam on when cold.

A 4" pud to a Yorkshireman is a mince pie to the rest of the country.

Did anyone see Masterchef the other night? Pudding was a cinnamon yorkshire pud with caramel, bananas and cream (i think). Yorkshire version of banoffee pie, presumably (and the cook was broooad Yorks).

I could feel my arteries clogging up just at the thought of it. Nom nom nom.

JohnP · « **Reply #29 on:** 11 February, 2009, 12:19:37 pm »

I saw that and was quite tempted to try it myself. Just needed some clotted cream to make it complete.

Um. Wrong.

And being a Yorkshireman or woman does not, contrary to popular rumour (and the overwhelming trend) make one the fount of all knowledge.

As evidence, I offer the following exceptions to Yorkshire common sense:

Geoffrey Boycott, Jeremy Clarkson, Bernard Ingham...

You can add William Hague and Guy Fawkes

clarion · « **Reply #32 on:** 11 February, 2009, 12:32:16 pm »

I'm in two minds about Guy

JohnP · « **Reply #33 on:** 11 February, 2009, 12:36:01 pm »

A yorkshireman in 2 minds over a guy ? Doesn't sound right to me.

He wasn't a class warrior, he just wanted to replace the Protestant aristocracy and King with Catholics ones. Would have been much worse for England if he has succeeded.

True... One is far from common.

I always put my failure to do Yorkshire Puds down to being Lancashire born and bred. Foreign food see?

I can do a mean souffle though.

Am recovering from a proper Yorkshire Pudding, presented to me this lunchtime, one course BEFORE the roast beef.

This is exactly how it should be served.

There was substantially more than 4" involved

FatBloke · « **Reply #40 on:** 20 February, 2009, 04:01:35 pm »

When I were a lad we 'ad t'leftover yorkshire pudding fer afters, wi' Golden Syrup on!

Mind you, that were in Lancashire!

I believe he was actually a mercenary.

pcolbeck · « **Reply #42 on:** 20 February, 2009, 04:14:10 pm »

Not really. He was a professional soldier but was fighting for his cause just on a larger scale than a purely national one. He fought with the Catholic Spanish forces in Flanders. For many people at the time this was a European wide war of religion.

fred the great · « **Reply #43 on:** 20 February, 2009, 04:37:15 pm »

Yeah but, did he eat the "Pud" we all fail to make.

As a young lad we had pud with the Sunday roast and the afters with golden syrup

After Church of course

I can't believe no one has mentioned Yorkshire Salad on this thread yet. Goes well with Yorkshire Pudding.

clarion · « **Reply #45 on:** 20 February, 2009, 04:58:32 pm »

Well, the only reason I haven't mentioned it is that I've never heard of it!

Sir Tifiable · « **Reply #46 on:** 20 February, 2009, 04:59:51 pm »

I've never heard of it either. What is it?

pcolbeck · « **Reply #47 on:** 20 February, 2009, 05:02:07 pm »

Finely chopped lettuce + finely chopped onion + chopped mint + vinegar + sugar.

We used to have it all the time as kids with Yorkshires as did Mrs Pcolbeck. Maybe it's a North Yorkshire thing.

Oh yes - I remember eating that, but never heard it called Yorkshire Salad before. There was a pot of something very similar (no mint, but with cucumber) today at lunch.
