Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • 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.

  1. Chop a few mushrooms and shalots ;
  2. put them into a stewpan, with some stock, and a glass of sherry ;
