From an old book: a historical recipe, not current advice. Its methods, additives and storage may be unsafe by today's standards.

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

  1. Italian Soup .
  2. Blanch off some Italian paste, put it into a stewpan, with as much veal stock as is requisite for the quantity wanted, and boil it half an hour.
  3. If the soup should be white, add a liaison.
