Yep, it is traditional to eat Yorkshire Pudding with onion gravy as a starter. Can't beat it!!

I've had Yorkshire puds, veg and gravy for my tea. Bloody love 'em. One of the first things I learnt to cook with my grandma in Pontefract.

A few of us were having a very intellectual conversation about Ypuds the other night and all of them maintained that they wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a Sainsbury's frozen pud (not the batter ones) and homemade ones. I said that was boswollox, and that I defo could. I stick by that claim, so if anyone wants to cook me either then I will come and assess. It's no bother.

There is nowt like a proper homemade yorkie. The bought ones can be good, but never as good!
My late yorkshire born and bred Pa would have have them for starters main and pudding. I couldn't ever face them with custard, but with a bit of jam they are reet good. Haven't had them for years with jam but think I might have to again very very soon

Half my family are from Yorkshire, and they make their puddings in a roasting tin, then cut it into squares, rather than in a bun tin. Far better that way.

Frozen ones? YUCK! It's not even that hard to make em, same as pancakes! Infuriates me when people buy either of those in packet form!

someone should start a business where you can get a proper yorkshire pud delivered to your workplace, with a filling of your choice.. a bit like the hot sandwich/oatcake/meal delivery places that exist atm, but obviously yorkshire-pud-based..

i would love to have a large yorkie delivered, with sausage, mash & peas in it.. a large yorkshire pudding is essentially an edible plate, innit :keke:

Rather like a 'trencher' - hence the, now little-used, term 'trencherman' for somebody who could put away a large quantity of food without difficulty, alluding to the fact that he might eat the 'plate' as well..
