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. This dish was well known in the days of our grandmothers.
  2. Break up six soda-crackers in a bowl ;
  3. pour over them enough boiling water to make them swell and become soft but not wet.
  4. Cover and place them where they will keep hot for fifteen minutes, and, just before serving, stir in some bits of butter, a little salt, and a mere suspicion of cayenne pepper.
