History And Timeline
The origin and history of National Yorkshire Pudding Day are still anonymous.
However, Yorkshire puddings are believed to have originated in Northern England by the British. The first recipe of the Yorkshire pudding appeared in 1737 in a recipe book as a dripping pudding, and later in 1747, it was reinvented as the modern-day Yorkshire pudding by Hannah Glasse, a renowned food writer.
Considered one of the most modest British side dishes, the Yorkshire pudding is loved by most individuals for its hollow shape, acting as a container holding the gravy.
A Yorkshire pudding is generally cooked in beef dripping in the UK, and modern-day oil is used in the USA. Yorkshire puddings are believed to have come into existence with the conventional use of wheat flour for baking and have been created due to northern England cooks trying to make use of the fat drippings to roast the meat.
In 1866, a woman called Mrs. Beeton is credited for the earliest recipe for the Yorkshire pudding.
