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.

- Soak a pint of well-washed, dried peas in a quart of water six hours.
- Then add a small teaspoonful of salt, one teaspoonful of sugar, a teaspoonful of butter, and an onion the size of an English walnut, and let come quickly to a boil.
- Cover, remove to the back of the range, and simmer gently, so as not to break the peas, for an hour.
- This is an excellent way to cook green peas also, omitting of course the soaking and long boiling.
- The onion may be removed or served with them.
