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.
- Hot sugar. Hot sugar sticks to skin and burns far hotter than boiling water: don't touch or taste it. Keep a bowl of cold water close, and keep children away while it cooks.
- 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.

- FOR PRALINE: Lightly oil baking sheet. Stir sugar and water in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and boil without stirring until syrup turns dark amber, brushing down sides of pan with pastry brush dipped into water and swirling pan occasionally. Mix in nuts. Pour onto prepared sheet; cool. Coarsely chop praline.
- FOR FILLING: Boil tangerine juice in heavy large saucepan until reduced to 1/4 C, about 12 minutes. Set aside. Whisk 1 C sugar and yolks in large metal bowl. Whisk in 1 C water. Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water and whisk constantly until candy thermometer registers 180F, about 5 minutes. Remove from over water. Using electric mixer, beat mixture until cool, about 5 minutes. Mix in tangerine juice, cream and peel. Add Mascarpone and 2 tablespoons Grand Marnier and beat until smooth. Fold in 1 C praline (reserve remaining praline for another use). Chill filling while preparing biscuits.
