Not that I’m admitting this is a degenerate meal, but it seems to be looked down on by everyone I know and haven’t convinced to try it yet.

  • Basic plain pasta shells, cooked normally
  • Drain water
  • Add like half a block at least of chopped-up basic cheddar and stir it while it melts
  • Stuff into six (this is the appropriate amount, trust me) Yorkshires
  • Throw the pan away due to burnt cheese

Easy peasy, lemon…cheezy? I await your judgement.

      Don’t knock it til you try it!

      Also, I’m eating salad right now so it all averages out really 😅

    I’m no food prude - I’ve even tried putting cheese in porridge out of curiosity, but seeing one savory flour product added to another makes me feel so unwell.

    What’s next? Noodle pies? Pancake sandwiches? Bao-filled gyoza? 🤢

    My wife makes Yorkie Puds with Sunday dinner because she’s a good wifey. I do the washing up, wait for everyone to leave the dining room, then pour golden syrup in the left over puddings and nomnomnom.

    Apparently it was something they did back int day anyway so it’s not really that degenerate, just old people food.

    Also FYI Yorkshire Puddings were meant to be an entrée to a full Sunday Dinner. Times were hard so you’d eat these to fill up a bit because there was fuck all int main course.

      They’re basically just pancakes in a different shape so I see no problem with syruping them at all!

    Has anyone thought to combine chowder and Yorkshire puddings?

    What about as a form factor for coquilles St. Jacques?

    A truly English meal. So bad I wouldn’t even dare to cook it if I was starving and this was the only stuff left in the house. Even though that would be the only situation where “cooking” something like this would ever be appropriate

      Yorkshires? Great.

      Pasta? Great.

      Cheese? Great.

      Which part of it do you disagree with? 😄

    I make Yorkshire Puddings every Sunday, but I can’t say I ever get too adventurous with them, by which I mean I never do any deliberate experimentation. Any deviation from my standard recipe only comes by accident, but one such deviation has since become standard; one time when I fudged the ratio of milk to water a bit, I think by entirely forgetting the water, it was actually liked a bit better, so the ratio of water to milk has since been shifted.

    Back when my siblings went to university, though, we didn’t shift the quantities we made any, leaving some left over to be eaten as a snack later in the night, or in my brother’s case, as breakfast. Said leftover puddings were not eaten with gravy, as the main course puddings; my desert puddings were eaten with some maple syrup, whilst I think my brother made some kind of marmite sandwich out of them to have as breakfast.

    From the other side of the pond, am I getting this right? “Yorkshire Pudding” is what we’d call a “bread bowl”, and there are some traditions about what is proper to put into the bowl? (Why would it not be any soup or dip?)

      It’s not really a bread bowl, the closest thing over here is something called a popover. I usually make giant yorkshires though, with an entire roast dinner and gravy inside them.
