Have you got served traditional English Sunday roast ever? Very often served with Yorkshire Puddings – which is  soaked in sauce! Old Mama said, enough about average fond of sauce, so these puddings are like mama from above for me.

Traditional Yorkshire Puddings

Yorkshire pudding was originally eaten as a separate appetizer with thick gravy to fill up the stomach, that one should not eat as much of the costly meat that came in the main course. Today we make the often small variations of Yorkshire Pudding served as an accompaniment.  You can sometimes get a bigger Yorkshire pudding, which is filled with mashed potatoes, gravy, chopped meat from the roast and vegetables.

The best Yorkshire Pudding is how easy it is to make! Although there probably are countless recipes, I’ve landed on a very simple and straightforward one. The few ingredients measured up in a 1-1-1 ratio:

  • 4 eggs, measure them in a measuring jug
  • milk – the same amount as eggs
  • flour – the same amount as eggs
  • A pinch of salt
  • about 2 tablespoons of fat, oil or butter

  • Blending the 4 eggs in a measuring jug and note the amount. Place the eggs in a bowl.
  • Measure out equal quantity of milk eggs and add to the bowl with the eggs. Take a pinch of salt. Whisk egg / milk mixture well together. If it gets a lot of bubbles and foam in the mixture (it will be happy if you use mixer), then allow the mixture to stand for 5-10 minutes until the flour whisk in.
  • Measure out equal amount of flour as eggs, and run it in the egg / milk mixture. Whisk well pipe is smooth and lump-free. Allow the mixture to stand. In the refrigerator, preferably several hours, but at least a quarter.
  • Apply grease or oil in a muffin tray or ceramic forms and insert in preheated oven at 225 degrees. Let stand for about 5 minutes. Take the molds out and pour quickly pipe into molds, about 1/3 full, and looked quickly into the oven again high.
  • Bake for 15-30 minutes (depending on size of forms). The puddings should raise profusely and become golden brown.

A review of Nature’s Gift to Humanity

Mary Rensberry

Nature’s Gift to Humanity: Fowl Art II is a collection of prose by Mary Rensberry. She truly feels that in seeking the truth we define ourselves. And in finding the truth we discover ourselves. The following are some lovely quotes from her book

In seeking the truth, we define ourselves.

In finding the truth we discover ourselves.

 

Observe reactions and behaviours

Living in nature with full conscience

Is living with and in God.

 

Sometimes making that last leap of faith brings home the prize.

Leap!

 

Sitting amongst nature is the best remedy of most ills.

 

In sea of confusion, find something positive in which to focus on. Pretty soon, that confusion will subside.

 

Life starts with a thought, an impulse.

There are images of fowl art with each quote in this book. She has photographed 100’s of pigeon poop pictures and has quite a collection. In 2010, her first book was published entitled, Fowl Art, and was followed by another one like it in 2015, called Nature’s Gift to Humanity, a collection of prose. She has made a mark on the world just as her bird friends have for centuries upon centuries. She is a ‘Pooptologist‘.

 There many more interesting and inspiring quotes in this book.
