  3. a pound of ginger

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.

Method

  2. then take it out, and scrape off any spots that are on it;
  3. make a syrup of half a pint of water to a pound of sugar and a pound of ginger;
  4. let it boil slowly about half an hour;
  5. take it up and boil the syrup a little longer.
