What are Yorkshire Puddings and what to Serve Them with?

Yorkshire puddings are an English baked savoury pudding that is usually served as a side dish. It is typically served with a roast dinner such as roast chicken, roast beef or lamb along with roast potatoes and gravy. It can also be served with sausages to make a dish called toad in the hole. Yorkshire puddings are very similar to popovers which is an American dish that is usually served with whipped cream, fruit or jam. Popovers are also served with soups and stews.

These Yorkshire puddings are airy, light and crispy so they have the perfect texture. So next time you want some Yorkshires to go with you dinner, homemade is the way to go.
