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.

Method

  1. Put two tablespoonfuls of milk into a half-pint cup, add boiling water to fill the cup half full, one-half teaspoonful of sugar, one-fourth teaspoonful of salt, and white flour to make a rather stiff batter.
  2. Let it rise over night.
  3. In the morning, when well risen, add a cup and a half of warm water, or milk scalded and cooled, and sufficient white flour to form a rather stiff batter.
  4. Cover, and allow to rise again.
  5. When light, add enough sifted graham or wheat-meal flour to knead.
  6. When well kneaded, shape into a loaf ;
  7. allow it to become light again in the pan, and bake.
  8. AH utensils used should bg first well sterilized by scalding in hot sal-soda water.
