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.
- 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.

- * The Bartlett Pears should be pared and thinly sliced. Combine the pears, orange juice concentrate and lemon rind in a bowl and toss lightly. Arrange the pear mixture in the unbaked pie shell. Prepare the Spicy Crumb Topping and sprinkle over the pear mixture. Bake in a preheated 400 degree F. oven for 40 minutes or until the pears are tender. Cover loosely with aluminum foil after 30 minutes if the top becomes too brown. Cool on a wire rack before serving. SPICY CRUMB TOPPING: Combine the flour, sugar, spices and salt in a bowl. Cut in the margarine, using a pastry blender, until the mixture is crumbly.
