  • Yorkshire Puddings (with oven+internal temperature trace)

  • The giant yorkshire pudding bowls made in flan trays are awesome - the bottom end up saturated in gravy and delicious, and it's really fun serving the whole meal inside them. But they do take up a lot of oven space. I'm usually cooking for two, which is fine, as two of the 6" trays will sit happily next to each other. If you're cooking for more this might not work.

    I grabbed a 6-bowl tray for hosting friends at Christmas (£12 on Amazon) and it worked really well too! (Not the best picture fo them.)

    If you do buy one of those trays be sure to get one with a raised rim around the edge. When you pour in the batter you can then fill them to the brim and not worry about the displaced hot oil getting everywhere.

  • Try using a tray with shallower bowls and you'll get proper bowl-like yorkies. Muffin trays will always make them do this weird thing where they cave in on themselves.

    Resist the temptation to open the door when they're cooking, or they collapse.

    I've also used a 6" flan tray with great results if you want something you can literally serve the whole meal in!

    Not sure what oil you used, but sunflower oil gives them a nice flavour. They need very little oil, common mistake is putting too much in the bottom. I go with no more than 1-2mm depth.

    I find letting the batter sit too long has a detrimental effect. I find the sweet spot is 30-60 minutes.

    My personal mix is 4 large eggs, 250ml regular cow milk, 200g sifted fine plain flour and a lot of salt. Don't over-mix, it should have good legs on it with < 1 minute of an electric whisk.

    I preheat the oil at 220c (420f) until smoking. Then I cook at 160c (320f) for 20 minutes.

    Gods I love Yorkshire Puddings. Great work, love to see someone else experimenting with them.

  • Amazon Games confirms MMO New World has a year left before it goes offline permanently

  • This game was one of the driving forces behind the development of the Lumberyard engine, which eventually became o3de.

    The game might suck but it spawned a new, free, open sourced game engine based on CryEngine, so at least something potentially useful came from it.

    They released hundreds of updates and god knows how much extra content, what DLC were you wanting?

  • Yes... That's matchmaking.

  • Matchmaking requires servers.

  • Parents worried about children's safety shouldn't let them play Roblox, company boss says

    Jump

  • Roblox uses luau, which is similar enough to Lua that it absolutely does teach you transferable skills. Knock the platform all you like, but it's not so dissimilar from other game engines that you come away with nothing.

    Honestly, I like developing for it, and that's coming from unity.

  • Pa6 I believe. Food safe, microwave safe, etc.

    But still plastic.

  • Overwatch 2 is bringing loot boxes back from the dead

    Jump

  • Great, I liked them. Getting a free loot box for every level up was just a nice little extra.

    I never bought them, and I had saved a couple of hundred boxes to open one day. Sadly they got automatically opened just before the release of OW2.

  • Yeah that happens when you break laws. You get exposed, and rightly so. Fuck these guys and their active profiteering from exploiting other people.

  • When starfield released and tried this "early access for extra cash" nonsense, the game was cracked before the regular release was even available.
