Can you freeze yorkshire puddings?

Want to make mini yorkshire puddings with horseradish cream and beef as canapes for a party at weekend. Can you make them and freeze them (I mean just the cooked puddings) or do they go yucky?
Anyone tried?

I don't know at all but would think that wheh they come out of the oven they are at their best....can you not prepare the mixture the night before, sit it in the fridge, cook them the next day and serve them fresh...preparation time 10 mins...cooking time 20 mins..sorry if am barking up wrong tree..

I would have thought you can, considering you can buy them frozen a la Aunt Bessie ...

bundleofyulelogs · 15/12/2004 18:22

you can buy them frozen, i've seen an advert for them, i'm sure

hollyandlavenderwreath · 15/12/2004 18:23

if you have half an hour to spare on the day would personally go for fresh as mouthwateringly nice!

Frozen ones are uncooked I think.
Just trying to save time/oven space as am providing canapes and full buffet for 70 adults

No, you can buy frozen ones cooked or uncooked. I've had them both. Nowhere near as nice as home made ones fresh from the oven though.

bundleofyulelogs · 15/12/2004 18:26

i don't think you could have them uncooked, frozen as it would just be apuddle of batter, surely?

pebbles2004pebbles · 15/12/2004 18:27

just asked chef DH - you can freeze either cooked or uncooked. HTH

bundleofyulelogs · 15/12/2004 18:28

couldn't you use blinis (bought, ready made) instead? you just warm them in the oven straight from the packet.

bundleofyulelogs · 15/12/2004 18:28

gosh

pebbles2004pebbles · 15/12/2004 18:30

meant to add - it freezing uncooked - its like freezing water for ice cubes!!! Just put into foil dishes and freeze!

spacedonkey · 15/12/2004 18:30

the uncooked frozen ones you can buy are in individual foil containers!

pebbles2004pebbles · 15/12/2004 18:31

but surely home made are tastier? IMO anyway!!!

hollyandlavenderwreath · 15/12/2004 18:32

70 thought you were talking about 12 or so...maybe cook 6 batches of 12 beforehand ...tbh auntbessies taste like cardboard if you can do your own all the better if not do you have 2 hours at w/e ie. 20 mins x 6...easier than sounds...you could maybe make then in the morning

bundleofyulelogs · 15/12/2004 18:32

and aren't they supposed to go into mad-hot oil? to make them puff?

pebbles2004pebbles · 15/12/2004 18:33

the trick i believe there is to freeze, when taking out to cook, remove from foil, heat oil in foil and reinsert puddings!
