All the cookbooks say you should let Yorkshire pudding batter stand for at least an hour after mixing. We all agree that a good Yorkshire pud should be light. I’d have thought that putting it in a hot oven immediately after mixing would trap more air in it. What am I overlooking?

    You mix it again after the batter stands, just before adding it to the hot pan. I think that’s what you’re overlooking. I’m not sure what it does to the batter by letting it stand, but I also do that with pancake and crepe batter so they’ll turn out lighter.

    Enjoy your Yorkshire Pudding!
