Version TWO
(from The Complete Jewish Cookbook, 1972)
Yield 6 to 8 popovers.
Ingredients
2 eggs, well beaten
1 Cup Milk
1tbsp melted shortening
1 Cup sifted all-purpose or plain flour (not SR)
1/4 tsp salt
Method
Combine milk, eggs & shortening.
Add flour and salt.
Beat 'till batter is smooth.
Pour into hot or cold greased muffin pans until 1/3 to 1/2 full.
Bake in a hot oven (230C) for 10 mins (until popovers
pop),
then reduce temp to moderate (180C) & bake 20-30 mins
longer (until dry).
REMOVE at once from pan!
PUNCTURE to let steam escape.
NOTES:
- Try greasing only the bottoms of the pans.
- Don't beat the batter for too long (overmixing can cause soggy
texture). If using an electric beater, only mix for 1/2 min.
- Make an executive decision that how your popovers turn out
is how they are meant to be (it's very likely).
