Yorkshire pudding should only be with beef filled with a beef stock gravy.

I’m afraid to speak up…almost, but I’ve been known to take the last pud and smear strawberry jam and peanut butter on it.

Well, leftovers with jam is very Yorkshire, so you'd fit right in, as long as you don't mention the peanut butterI’m afraid to speak up…almost, but I’ve been known to take the last pud and smear strawberry jam and peanut butter on it.
I hereby tender my resignation as moderator, forum member, and human being. I’ll shall await sentencing by a jury of my Britters (meaning, my betters, who are British).
Ok, you talked me into it. I’m back!Well, leftovers with jam is very Yorkshire, so you'd fit right in, as long as you don't mention the peanut butter
You can eat them however you want. Just as there is no Royal English Language Academy to tell us what words we can and can't use, neither is there a British Food Academy (Thank God!) to order us never to put jam on our scones first.
The folks in Yorkshire emailed me to tell me as long as I put the peanut butter on first, then the jam, I was fine…then someone from Lancashire immediately said it had to be jam first, then peanut butter…
The Queen was right. Jam is thixotropic and provides a more stable base in a thinner layer to dollop the cream on. The cream by contrast, if applied first, is liable to shear and drop off, and certainly does not provide a stable base to transfer the jam from the knife onto the tea time treat.
