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.

- This is by many considered superior to caper sauce and is eaten with boiled mutton.
- It is made with the green seeds of nasturtians, pickled simply in cold vinegar.
- Cut about six ounces of butter into small hits, and put them into a small sauce-pan.
- Mix with a wine-glass of water sufficient flour to make a thick batter, pour it on the butter, and hold the sauce-pan over hot coals, shaking it quickly round, till the butter is melted.
- Let it just boil up, and then take it from the fire.
- Thicken it with the pickled nasturtians and send it to table in a boat.
- Never pour melted butter over any thing, but always send it to table in a sauce-tureen or boat.
