Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
  • 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. Fold the fillets of soles over, and poach them in fish fumet and the cooking-liquor of mushrooms.
  2. Arrange them in an oval on a dish, with their tails pointing inwards;
  3. place a fine slice of truffle in the middle of each fillet, and between each of the latter three shelled crayfishes’ tails.
  4. Coat with Mornay sauce, and set to glaze quickly.
  5. When taking the dish from the oven, set in its centre a fine heap of very green asparagus-heads, cohered with butter at the moment of dishing.
