Yorkshire Pudding is a traditional English dish similar to a popover, not to be confused with a dessert. The dish is made from a batter and is usually served with roast meat and gravy.
Cooks in the north of England devised a way to use the fat that fell into the dripping pans. While the meat was roasted in the oven, they made a batter pudding and then roasted it in the oven. In 1737, one such cook, one such cook, published a recipe for "A Dripping Pudding" in The Whole Duty of a Woman.
Hannah Glasse, 1747, published similar instructions in The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy. She named the dish 'Yorkshire Pudding.' Glasse received praise for re-inventing and renaming the original version of "A Dripping Pudding"'s "A Dripping Pudding."
