My nanny used to make yorkshire pudding every time we had roast beef. She'd have to make at least 30 because everyone would want 2 or 3. The recipe she used had her whisking the batter all day before baking it. They were really good, but they didn't rise that much.
Then, one day my Uncle John was watching Jamie Oliver and saw him make HUGE Yorkshire puddings. Since then, this has been our go to recipe.
Tonight, my mom made the Yorkshire puddings. It was the first time she has ever made them and they didn't collapse, so I had to document it!
