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 two ounces of dried currants in a jfint of water five minutes, first washing and drying your currants well, then add the crumb of a penny roll, a dozen cloves, a gill or quarter of a pint of port wine, and some butter, stirring it till it becomes perfectly smooth.
