Cook safely
Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.
- Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
- Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.
- Grill and open flame. Keep sleeves, hair and tea towels away from the flame, and stay with the grill while it's lit. Barbecue outdoors only, never in a closed space.
- Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

- PREPARATION and COOKING: Adjust oven rack to high position and heat the broiler. Peel and halve the onion and broil until charred; set aside. Remove fat from chicken parts and beef ribs. Put them and veal bones in a 6-quart soup kettle with salt and 4 quarts of cold water. Slowly bring to a boil. Halve the celery and carrots, quarter the celery root; add them to the soup kettle along with the remaining ingredients and simmer for 3 1/2 to 4 hours, skimming frequently until stock reduces to 2 quarts. Strain broth, discarding solids. (Can cool, cover, and refrigerate for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 1 month.)
