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.

- Halve & core apples (peeled if you prefer); dice into small pieces, making about 1 1/2 cups. Pare 10 thin strips of peel from lemon with zester, trim off ends and cut lemon lengthwise into quarters. Cut each quarter into 1/4" trianges. Combine juice, berries, apple and lemon pieces, strips of lemon peel, vinegar and seasonings and stir together. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Stir, reduce to medium and simmer for about 5 min., till all berries burst. Uncover, reduce heat, simmer another 4-5 minutes, till chutney is thick. Taste and add small amounts more vinegar, salt or cayenne, as you prefer. Will keep several weeks refrigerated or longer frozen.
