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.

- Put the fruit in a large preserving kettle and cover with the boiled cider.
- Cook slowly until the apples are clear and tender.
- To prevent burning, place the kettle on an iron tripod or ring.
- It will require from 2 to 3 hours to cook the apples.
- If you find it necessary to stir the sauce, be careful to break the apples as little as possible.
- When the sauce is cooked put in sterilized jars.
- In the late spring, when cooking apples have lost much of their flavor and acidity, an appetizing sauce may be made by stewing them with diluted boiled cider, using 1 cupful of cider to 3 cupfuls of water.
- Cider Pear Sauce.
- — Cooking pears may be preserved in boiled cider the same as sweet apples.
- If one prefers the sauce less sour, 1 pt.
