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. Melt eight ounces of best butter in a saucepan, at the corner of the fire.
  2. When the froth falls, skin the liquid butter carefully and then let it brown slightly to the colour of a filbert nut.
  3. Take it off and add a little salt and a very little black pepper, and two teaspoons of vinegar, which has been previously boiled.
