Question of the week: The great Yorkshire Pudding debate

from The Rise and Hive · host Liane and Melissa

This week we’re tackling a very important question…What’s your stance on Yorkshire puddings?Are they reserved exclusively for a traditional roast beef dinner, or are they welcome alongside any roast? Do they belong on a Christmas dinner? How many are you having? And perhaps most importantly… are you team crispy bottom or team stodgy?As expected, we have strong opinions.We also revisit last week’s potato debate, where the people have spoken and roast potatoes have emerged as the clear winner. Quite right too.And in a surprising subplot, we hear how broadcaster Liz Kershaw became unexpectedly invested in Liam’s salt consumption during a recent holiday, leading to some serious questions about acceptable seasoning levels.Yorkshire puddings, roast potatoes and unsolicited salt commentary.Just another normal week at The Rise and Hive.Short, snappy and guaranteed to make you hungry.
