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.
  • 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. Cook one-quarter of a pound of macaroni until tender, drain and rinse it with cold water.
  2. Free a pint of cooked fish from bones and skin, and flake it.
  3. Put half of it in a cooking dish.
  4. Add half the macaroni, then a tablespoon of melted butter and a tablespoon of melted cheese.
  5. Sprinkle with a salt spoon of salt and a dash of cayenne.
  6. Add the remainder of the fish and macaroni.
  7. Season as before.
  8. Heat and place in a cooker steamer or oven an hour.
  9. Brown the top and serve hot.
  10. Fish may be baked in the insulated oven in about the same time that we have accorded it in our old ovens, and there will be less to discard because the heat of the insulated oven is evenly distributed.
