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. Boil a dessert-spoonful of ground coffee in nearly a pint of milk, a quarter of an hour;
  2. then put into it a shaving or two of isinglass, and clear it;
  3. let it boil a few minutes, and set it on the side of the fire to grow fine.
  4. This is a very fine breakfast;
  5. it should be sweetened with real Lisbon sugar of a good quality.
