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. To one cupful of hot milk add two tablespoonfuls of grated chocolate, two well-beaten eggs, four tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar, a slight pinch of salt and one tablespoonful of corn starch mixed smooth with a little cold milk.
  2. Let the mixture reach the boiling point, remove from the stove and when cool pour into cups or glasses.
  3. Place in the refrigerator until firm and cold, and serve with whipped cream.
