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. Dish the cardoons in a pyramid on a round dish;
  2. cover them with a marrow sauce (No.
  3. 45), and surround them with very small puff-paste patties garnished with poached marrow dice.
  4. Or dish the cardoons in a timbale, and set thereon the heart cut into roundels and arranged in a crown, with a slice of poached marrow on each roundel of heart.
  5. Cover the whole with marrow sauce.
