Yorkshire Pudding, No. 1

Ingredients

• One pint of milk
• Four eggs
• Two cups of flour
• One teaspoon of salt
• Fat or melted shortening (if not cooking beef simultaneously)

Directions

1. Separate the eggs, and beat the yolks and whites separately. 
2. Mix all ingredients. 
3. If cooking beef simultaneously, pour mixture into the dripping-pan about half an hour before the beef is done. The dripping pan should contain just enough fat to prevent the pudding from sticking. Otherwise, pour the same amount of fat into an equivalent pan and bake half an hour. 
4. Cut the pudding into squares and place into the same dish as the beef (if applicable).
