Is your pan like a popover pan? I’ve always wondered what the real difference is between a popover and a Yorkshire pudding, except for the type of fat...
No. My Yorkshire pudding pan has four very shallow indentations which I imagine is a bit different from a popover pan, I think.
Genuine Yorkshire pudding should be cooked directly under the beef in a very big pan. As far as I can see, there is no difference between a popover and Yorkshire pudding except for the beef drippings. It is the same recipe as pancakes. And so delicious!
