I have fond memories of eating my grandmother's Yorkshire puddings, always served to us children with sugar as a dessert.

I'm afraid I had to grow to like Yorkshire Pudding as at the first school I attended it was served cold with a trickle of golden syrup or plum jam for dessert! Often the jam was a bit winey and the pudding was like a soggy sponge - yuk.

You don't find it in restaurants or bakeries here. I would definitely choose it over anything else on the plate.

I am a complete failure at making Yorkshire pudding, much to my husband's disgust, perhaps I should have another try using your recipe. I had only read about suet pudding in English novels and had no idea it is another addition to the roast dinner. I think our hot climate is not really conducive to eating Yorkshire pudding, but I do have wonderful memories of eating it in a Pub in Yorkshire on a freezing, foggy day.Robin Machttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14306137274084617478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-68401063948083916172015-12-21T12:25:42.409-08:002015-12-21T12:25:42.409-08:00When i was in seattle they eat something similar t...When i was in seattle they eat something similar to yorkshire pudding filled with chowder<br />I was always taught in sheffield that pudding was a starter, very large and filled with gravyJohn Going Gentlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14958171262765033946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-83159702247589417602015-12-21T11:55:43.910-08:002015-12-21T11:55:43.910-08:00When I was a child in the 1950's we always had...When I was a child in the 1950's we always had both Yorkshire pudding and suet pudding as part of our Sunday roast. The suet pudding, made in the same pudding cloth every week, was always made big enough so that we had the rest for "afters" with jam, treacle or just sugar on - I loved it.<br />When you consider all those, so-called "unhealthy" ingredients by modern standards, that we ate, makes you wonder how we lived to old age.

The first time she made us Yorkshire pudding my uncle, who spent many months in England before shipping to France, pushed back his chair, lifted Hazel up from hers, danced her around the kitchen, kissed her, put her back in her chair and instructed her to never leave us. Yorkshire pudding was the reason the army had so much trouble getting him to France, he declared.Joanne Noragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16601010208310707750noreply@blogger.com
