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.

Method

  1. When the potatoes are thoroughly boiled, drain and dry them well, and pick out every speck.
  2. Rub them through a cullender into a clean stewpan: to a pound of potatoes allow half an ounce of butter, and a spoonful of milk.
  3. Mix it up well, but do not make it too moist.
  4. After Lady day, when potatoes are getting old and specked, and also in frosty weather, this is the best way of dressing them.
  5. If potatoes are to be mashed with onions, boil the onions, and pass them through a sieve.
  6. Mix them with the potatoes, in such a proportion as is most approved.
