Our Mum, a right good Yorkshire cook,
Claims not to have a cookery book.   
     Her apple pie is quite supreme,
     If served with cheese and not with cream.

​

Her Yorkshire pudding is a must:
Soft inside with crispy crust.
    Cooked in a tin that’s nicely greased,
   Then served with beef!  Oh what a feast!

​

Yorkshire fat rascals, you’ll agree,
Are at their best washed down with tea.
    Packed to the brim with good dried fruit.
    Their rascal faces, make them cute.

​

Another tempting dish to try, 
Is not a pudding, cake or pie.
     For something special, as a treat,
     Yorkshire curd tart’s good to eat.

​

Yorkshire’s scenery’s the best.
Its good fresh air will help you rest,
     But, when you give your friends a call,
     Say: 'Yorkshire’s food is best of all.'
