I am TOTALLY going to see about getting these into the mix for this year!!
I'm going to need to do some research. It would seem that most of you here prefer a "savory" version as opposed to a "sweet" one. Utilizing it as a side dish sounds like a cool idea. Especially, when you consider the vast amount of sweets that are already present at a Christmas gathering.
Basically sausages in a big yorkshire pud with loads of gravey. It's delicious! http://i492.photobucket.com/albums/r..._leckerer2.gifQuote:

PS: While not as popular as the UK - I'm pretty sure people up here in Canada have all pretty much heard of Yorkshire Pudding.
I've heard of it. I just always imagined it as actually being a type of pudding (in other words...a dessert, maybe like tapioca or something.)
What on earth is a tapioca? :dizzy:Quote:

It is made in many cultures with equally varying styles, and may be produced in a variety of ways. Its consistency ranges from thin (runny), to thick, to firm enough to eat with a fork.Quote:

Mike's description is right, but here's a visual.Quote:

(I'd have to say that most people I know don't enjoy Tapioca, due to the texture, although the flavour is not all dissimilar to Rice Pudding).
Urgh! http://i409.photobucket.com/albums/p..._krank_142.gif That looks horrid!Quote:

Haha, yes, I'm not a fan of either, either. I think that it's most popular with the Under-3 and Over-70 crowd ;)Quote:
