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.

Method

  1. Grate half a pound of stale bread, add a pinch of salt, and pour on a pint of hot milk, and let it soak half an hour.
  2. Add two well-beaten eggs, put it in a covered basin just large enough to hold it, tie it in a pudding cloth, and boil it half an hour;
  3. or put it in a buttered pan in an oven, and bake it that time.
  4. Make a sauce of thin sweet cream, sweetened with sugar, and flavored with rose water or nutmeg.
