Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Hot oil. Never put water on an oil fire: turn off the heat and cover the pan with a lid or a damp tea towel. Pat food dry before it goes into hot oil, and lower it in gently, away from you.
  • 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.
  • Blending hot liquid. Let it cool a little first, fill the blender no more than a third, and hold the lid down with a folded towel. Start on the lowest speed. A stick blender in the pan is safer.

Method

  1. If you use dried beans, put them in a bowl full of water the night before.
  2. In the morning, rinse them and put them in a pot (the ideal would be a clay pot) with enough water to cover them.
  3. Add little salt.
  4. Bring to a boil and let them simmer gently on low heat for an hour.
  5. Remove the foam with a skimmer.
  6. Then blend them well.
  7. Check if they need more salt.
  8. Remove from heat and season with good quality oil.
  9. It's a great dish both hot, warm and cold.
  10. Chickpeas “Omelette” Preparation time: 20'+ soaking time Cooking time: 15’ Cooking time: 4 Ingredients: chickpea flour: 75 gr water: 125 gr salt: a little¢¢ oil: 2 tablespoons You can cook it in a frying pan or in the oven.
  11. If you decide to cook it in the oven it will be ready when the surface will have a nice golden color.
  12. If you bake it you will have a very light dish, on the other end with the frying pan it will be cheaper and quicker to get.
  13. It is excellent made only with chickpea flour, but I love to add to it some cooked vegetables leftover.
  14. The best are: chicory, zucchini and artichokes.
