Cheddar Cheese Yorkshire Pudding Recipe



Today's cooks are jazzing up Yorkshire Pudding. Some cooks have added feta cheese, and others make an herb version like the yorkshire gingerbread, with fresh basil and oregano. Though you can use dried herbs, fresh will add more flavor. The herbs must be finely chopped before the are added to the batter. Other cooks are adding Cheddar cheese, a yummy change. These tips will help your efforts to be successful and family members say, "Wow!" First, use room temperature eggs. Grate the cheese yourself; do not use the pre-grated kind because it won't melt properly. Whisk the batter just until blended and do not over-beat. Though I have baked the pudding in a rectangular pan, the results were not as good as pudding baked in a round one. I use an oven-proof glass pie plate and the recipe looks like a photo in a cook book.
