  2. Rum

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.

Method

  1. Line a round, shallow, well-buttered, croustade-mould with a very thin layer of sugared paste.
  2. Spread some vanilla-flavoured, stewed apples on the bottom, and upon it lay a garnish of various seasonable fresh stewed fruits—quartered if large.
  3. The mould ought now to be half-filled.
  4. Fill it up with a vanilla-flavoured soufflé preparation, and cook it in a moderate oven for about twenty-five minutes.
  5. On withdrawing it from the oven, carefully turn it out on a dish;
  6. pour a few tablespoonfuls of heated rum into the latter, and set a light to it when serving.
