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.
I don’t understand. What does “left over” mean in this context? I normally understand it to mean that you didn’t eat them all but that can’t be right.
I assume they're the ones he hides so as to eat them in secret later.
Ah. I see you're still making too few Yorkshire puddings. May I point out that i eat them, therefore not "left over" for long, literally gone before the washing-up.
They're basically just pancakes in a different shape so I see no problem with syruping them at all!
When I was growing up, I was given them with jam as a starter.
Although we still had them with the Sunday dinner too. Filled with gravy was my favourite way, which we called a "paddling pool" because our puddings were fairly wide and flat with a raised edge. Must have been the shape of the pan we had.
Another vote for popping some jam on 'em!
Ah the old traditions are still alive
