Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • 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.
  • 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.

Method

  1. Take one pound of rump steak, without any fat ;
  2. cut it or chop it to about the size of peas;
  3. then put it on the fire, with one pint of cold water, in a clean saucepan, and let it simmer for ten minutes, and then strain it through a clean hair sieve, or through a piece of clean muslin rasr, and season it to taste, with a little salt, or with a little spice and salt.
