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.

- Squeeze the pulp into one bowl and put the skins into another.
- Press the pulp through a sieve, weigh the grapes before you squeeze them and allow three-quarters of a pound of sugar to a pound of fruit.
- Put the strained pulp and sugar on to boil, the skins also, and boil slowly until thick.
- It will be much easier for you to heat the pulp before straining.
