St George's Day Yorkshire Puddings




Celebrate St George's Day on 23rd April and enjoy the best of English cooking with an Italian twist!

Begin by roasting Yorkshire puddings until golden brown. To make the pistou, blend basil, garlic, Parmigiano Reggiano, olive oil and pepper until smooth. Then, combine cream cheese with crème fraîche and add half the pistou sauce. Spoon cream cheese mixture into Yorkshire puddings and top with more pistou before finishing with seasonal watercress and delicious Parma Ham slices.

Parma Ham is a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) product and is 100% natural. The drying process that Parma Ham goes through creates a ham that is very low in fat content, with many mineral salts, vitamins, antioxidants and easily digestible proteins. This means that Parma Ham is truly a food for everyone.

Prosciutto di Parma is produced in the hills surrounding the Italian town of Parma.

The unique taste of Parma Ham is dependent on the traditional production process passed down from Roman times, carefully controlled by the Consorzio del Prosciutto di Parma. Only hams that have passed stringent curing regulations approved by the EU can be awarded the stamp of the Ducal crown - a five pointed coronet logo with PARMA in the centre which is branded onto the ham's skin. The Ducal Crown is now a certification trademark.
