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.

Method

  1. Braise the chicory as described above.
  2. Upon withdrawing it from the oven, mix with it (per lb.) five stiffly-beaten eggs;
  3. put it into an even, buttered mould, and set to poach in a bain-marie.
  4. Before unmoulding the “loaf,” let it rest awhile, that the middle may settle.
  5. Turn out just before serving, and cover with a cream sauce.
