Important Notes

⚠️

Using a large bowl to make the batter helps incorporate more air, leading to lighter puddings.

⚠️

Ensure the batter is completely smooth and lump-free. A good test is to see if it coats the back of a spoon.

⚠️

Using an oil with a high smoke point (e.g., sunflower, groundnut) is essential as it needs to get very hot without burning.

⚠️

The single most important rule is not to open the oven door while the Yorkshire puddings are cooking, as the drop in temperature will cause them to collapse.

⚠️

Pouring the batter into a jug first allows for quick, clean, and even distribution into the hot tin.
