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.
  • 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. Using a vegetable peeler, carefully remove rind from grapefruit; discard bitter white pith. Cut rind into julienne strips. Peel and section grapefruit; set sections aside.
  2. Combine grapefruit rind, sections, and water in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add cranberries, and cook 10 minutes. Stir in sugar; cook 30 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally.
  4. Yield: 5-1/4 cups
