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. Make one cup of very strong coffee, nice and clear;
  2. flavor with two tablespoons brandy and four tablespoons sugar, thicken with one tablespoon cornstarch dissolved in a small half cup water.
  3. Then put the saucepan on ice and stir until the coffee becomes cold;
  4. add two cups whipped cream — well sweetened.
  5. Fill little paper cups, decorate the top with whipped cream, little dots of the cream around, and a dot in the centre.
  6. Put a slice of maraschino cherry in the centre of the dot and small dots of the cherries all around.
  7. Put in a freezer, pack in salt and ice, and let freeze from two to three hours.
  8. Arrange on a paper doily, serve for luncheon or supper.
  9. These cups can be used fancy, pink, blue, white, or any shade according to the color of the table.
