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. 2 cups strong made coffee—fresh and hot.
  2. 2 cups of boiling milk.
  3. Strain the coffee from the boiler into the table coffee-pot, through thin muslin.
  4. Add the boiling milk and set in a vessel of hot water, a “cozey,” or a thick cloth wrapped about it, for five minutes.
  5. Then it is ready for use.
  6. Pass with the gingerbread.
  7. First week.
