  2. Water

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. Parboil one-half lb.
  2. of Patna rice in salted water, for fifteen minutes;
  3. stirring it from time to time the while.
  4. Drain it;
  5. wash it in several cold waters;
  6. lay it on a napkin, and set the latter on a tray or on a sieve.
  7. Dry for fifteen minutes in a steamer or in a very moderate oven.
