I have no problem getting them to rise to 10cm having used those ingredients.I prefer a big one to individual ones.
Individual are better for a dessert with fruit or golden syrup in.lick

One needs a st oven or complete hamfisted spackery to turn out rubbish yorkshires.

Getting the meat spot-on and delivering perfect gravy is the real challenge.

love some of the lines in that article:

"Some amateurs even place the batter in the fridge first. What kind of foolish act is that?"


"It is wonderful as a starter and main course, as we all know," ..... we should aspire to bring it back again as a genuine pudding after many years absence."

Next year the RSC .... will push for its renaissance as a dessert.



my mum does the best puds in the whole of yorkshire, which is contentious but true. she has yet to pass on the skills as mine pale in comparison frown

she makes a gravy using some of the pud mix as well that is to die for. used to go nuts for it as a kid, so much so i'd drink a mug of it with my sunday lunch! lick
