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.

Method

  1. Combine the mushrooms and salt. Stir, smash well, and let rest 10 minutes.
  2. Transfer mushrooms to a non-metal container, such as a ceramic crock. Cover and let sit overnight.
  3. Combine the mushrooms, onion, horseradish, lemon zest, cloves, allspice, vinegar, and cayenne. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes.
  4. Drape a clean cloth over a bowl. Pour the mixture over the cloth, and squeeze to extract all the liquid. The liquid is the mushroom ketchup.
