Instructions

Whisk the all-purpose flour and fine sea salt together in a large mixing bowl to combine and remove any lumps, then make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.

Whisk the eggs and whole milk together in a separate jug until completely smooth and lightly frothy on top.

Slowly pour the egg and milk mixture into the well of the dry ingredients, whisking constantly from the center outward until a smooth, lump-free batter forms.

Stir the finely chopped fresh rosemary and thyme into the batter, then cover the bowl and let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes to allow the starch to swell.

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and divide the vegetable oil or beef drippings evenly among the cups of a 12-cup metal muffin tin.

Place the oiled tin into the hot oven for 10 to 15 minutes until the oil is piping hot and slightly smoking.

Carefully remove the hot tin from the oven and quickly pour the rested batter evenly into the sizzling cups, filling each cup about half full.

Immediately return the tin to the oven and bake for 20 minutes without opening the oven door, until the puddings are puffed high and deep golden brown. Serve immediately.

Tips

Ensure your eggs and milk are at room temperature before mixing to guarantee a dramatic rise in the oven.
Never open the oven door during the first 15 minutes of baking, as the sudden draft of cool air will cause the puddings to deflate.
The oil in the tin must be screaming hot before you add the batter; a loud sizzle when pouring is the key to crispy edges.
