Yorkshire pudding debate rages on - Welcome To Yorkshire have a response
Now Sir Gary Verity has invited the editor of the New York Times to sample the very best Yorkshire puddings on home turf.
In the wake of the Yorkshire pudding debate raging on both sides of the pond - for the record - it's NOT a dessert...
Sir Gary Verity, head of Welcome to Yorkshire and organiser of the Tour De Yorkshire, has invited staff from the New York Times to visit Yorkshire and taste a REAL one!
Following a report from across the pond, one of Yorkshire’s favourite delicacies has taken a battering after being described by the award-winning US newspaper as a “Dutch baby” and a “large, fluffy pancake” to be dished up as a sweet treat.
Sir Gary Verity, Chief Executive of Welcome to Yorkshire said:
"Nowhere is the Yorkshire Pudding celebrated more than its home county of Yorkshire! We are incredibly proud of our local dish served in all its forms but most famously as the absolute must on a Sunday roast!
"We would be delighted to welcome The New York Times over to Yorkshire to sample one of our favourite foods in all its glory in its stunning native, surroundings!’
