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.
  • 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. Heat some fresh butter in a flat, earthenware cocotte, and allow one-quarter oz.
  2. of it to each ortolan.
  3. Roll the previously salted ortolans in this butter, and put them in a very hot oven for three minutes.
  4. When taking them out of the oven, sprinkle them with a few tablespoonfuls of very cold pine-apple juice.
  5. Cover the cocotte, and serve immediately.
  6. The cocotte should be just large enough to hold the ortolans.
