  1. Must
  2. Water
  3. a tablespoonful of salt
  4. Sprouts
  5. Soda

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.

Method

  1. Pick, trim, and wash a number of sprouts;
  2. put them into plenty of fast-boiling water.
  3. The sudden immersion of the vegetables will check the boiling for some little time, but they must be brought to a boil as quickly as possible, that they may not lose their green color.
  4. Add a tablespoonful of salt and a pea of soda, and boil very fast for fifteen minutes.
  5. Lose no time in draining them when sufficiently done;
  6. and serve plain, or with a little white sauce over the top.
