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. For twelve herrings, put one pint of white wine into a saucepan, with one-quarter pint of vinegar, an onion cut into thin slices, half a carrot cut into grooved roundels, a faggot, the necessary salt, and a few peppercorns.
  2. Set to boil gently for twenty minutes.
  3. Place the cleaned herrings in a saut6-pan, pour the boiling marinade upon them, and let them poach for fifteen minutes.
  4. Serve them very cold with the marinade, the roundels of carrot, and thin strips of onion.
