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

Poach the ham and drain it on a dish.
Remove the skin and all the black, outside parts.
Prepare a piece of patty paste large enough to enclose the ham.
Besprinkle the surface of the ham with powdered sugar;
glaze quickly at the salamander, and place the ham (glazed side undermost) on the layer of paste.
Draw the ends of the paste towards each other;
seal them together, with the help of a little moisture, in such wise as to enclose the ham completely;
turn the latter over, and put it on a tray with the sealed side of the paste lying underneath.
Guild and streak, make a slit in the middle of the paste for the escape of steam, and put the joint in the oven.
Leave it there until the paste is dry and well coloured.
After taking the ham out of the oven, inject into it, through a pre- riety pared hole, a large wineglassful of Port wine or Sherry.
Stop up.the hole with a little pellet of paste;
dish, and serve immediately.
Serve at the same time a garnish of Gnochi, spinach, or Soufflé au Parmesan (No.
2295A).
The best adjunct to Prague ham is a very light glaze prepared with Port wine, and buttered at the last minute.

The waiter in charge then puts a slice of ham, a collop of foie-gras, and a tablespoonful of asparagus-heads on each plate and serves.

Serve each slice of it with one collop of braised veal sweetbread and one tablespoonful of fresh peas a la paysanne.
