Ok how do you make one?
I'm generally regarded by them what knows me as a decent cook, maybe even a bit better than that when I'm on my game but my Yorkshire Pud's have consistently failed to achieve lift-off. I've consulted the books and the ancestors and know the tricks: batter into very hot pan etc., but nothing has worked. What to do? I was born in the f**king county after all, its bloody embarrassing. I'm pretty sure it comes down to the flour, in the UK you've got 'Plain' and 'Self-Raising,' in North America its 'All-Purpose,' 'Cake' and 'Bread.' I'm not sure how, or even if, they correspond exactly. Have any North Americans here produced the exquisite "Poem in Batter" successfully?
