Yorkshire Pudding with Xmas Dinner

[Mrobson]

Yes or no?

For me it’s a no, what do you think?

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Why not or have it as a starter

 

[Cwrw666]

Yes in principle but no in practice - I can't be bothered with all the mucking about.

What a daft question. Of course you do.

 

[An Ankoù]

What a splendid idea. Yorkshire pud full of Brussels sprouts swimming in Bisto nestled lovingly between the turkey and the roasties. With Bing Crosby crooning in the background. Eat your hearts out Martha Day, Sarah Raven et al.

Thank Odin we don't have Christmas here in Valhalla, it's horns of mead and yards of black pudding to celebrate yule!

 

[Winterbournebrewery]

its a yes from me.

 

[ClownPrince]

What a daft question. Of course you do.

This.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Or why not pour the pudding batter over the pigs in blankets, cook and then have "pigs in the holy".

 

[LeeH]

Definitely, but I have a dirty little secret. I like the pre mixed Aunt Bessie ones in a foil tin.

 

[yeastinfection]

Yessssss

The proper way is to have the yorkshire pudding first as a starter then your dinner- it was done to fill people up so as they did not need as much dinner and thus save on the meagre working class wages paid when I was a lad, also yorkshire pudding was served with jam if any left as a dessert

 

[Chippy_Tea]

I like Yorkshire puds but there is enough on the plate already so it's a no here.

 

[The Baron]

I do not have yorkshire pudding nowadays at Crimbo as SWMBO makes so many veggies and trimmings its too much

That's just a ruse to hide the fact that everyone prefers Yorkshire pud and gravy to whatever follows.

As a Yorkshire man, will be having several, Home made of course, my gas oven is garbage though, cheap crap put in by the scrooge landlord.

 

[St00]

Standard with any form of roast dinner shirley?

Serve me a roast dinner without a Yorkshire pudding and there will be umbridge. Yes.. umbridge I say!

I'm the same about proper gravy. I used to keep a bottle of gravy browning in the car so I could storm the kitchen before anybody got near a cannister of instant brown slime.

I also think anybody who has a turkey crown should be slapped very, very hard and told that christmas dinner is about suffering, but not the level of suffering where it's the most awful part of the turkey.

Delia's yorkshire pudding recipe is faultless. I know somebody that refuses to use a recipe and tries to use the same mix they used to make the pancakes in the morning. And that's how clay pigeon shooting started.

I wasn't aware that Yourkshire pud engendered flatulence. Surely that's down to a surfeit of sprouts washed down with sausage and chestnut stuffing and gallons of Imperial Oatmeal Death Stout!

Come to think of it, wasn't it a Death Stout that originally made the Force shudder, or am I getting mixed up?
