Yorkshire Pudding  
From: Patricia Crossley  
This pudding (a baked batter) was used years ago as a 'filler' when meat on the table was  
rare and expensive. In the north of England it was served first to fill hungry stomachs. It  
was often cooked below the meat in the drippings from the roast.  
This is a very simple dish that tests the skills of a cook. The batter is made from a basic  
mixture of flour, milk and egg. The flour is worked to a slack consistency with the eggs
