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. Cut the large stalks off where the leaves commence ;
  2. strip off the outside skin, then cut the stalks in pieces half an inch long;
  3. line a pie dish with paste rolled rather thicker than a dollar piece, put in a layer of the rhubarb nearly an inch deep ;
  4. to a quart bowl of cut rhubarb, put a large teacup of sugar, sirew it over with a saltspoonful of salt, and half a nutmeg grated ;
  5. cover with a rich pie crust, cut a slit in the centre, trim off the edge with a sharp knife, and bake in a quick oven, until the pie loosens from the dish, lihubarb pies made in this way, are altogether superior to those made of the fruit stewed.
