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. Take four ounces of grated stale bread;
  2. pour over it sufficient milk to cover it, and let it soak about three quarters of an hour, or till it becomes incorporated with the milk.
  3. Then add a dozen corns of black pepper, a little salt, and a piece of butter the size of a walnut.
  4. Pour on a little more milk, and give it a boil.
  5. Serve it up in a sauce-boat, and eat it with roast wild fowl, or roast pig.
  6. Instead of the pepper, you may boil in it a hand full of dried currants, well picked, washed, and floured.
