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.
- 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.

Drain, rinse under cold water, drain again, and place in a large serving bowl. Add the peppers, tomatoes, dill, tarragon, shallots, red pepper flakes, black pepper, salt, lemon juice, 1 c olive oil and the chili oil to the serving bowl. Toss well with the shrimp. Cover and refrigerate. When you are ready to serve, bring a large pan of water to a boil. Drop in the broccoli and cook 1 minute. Drain and rinse under cold water, drain again. Toss the peas and broccoli with the shrimp and vegetables, set aside. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the remaining 1 T olive oil and the linguine. Cook at a rolling boil until just tender. Drain the linguine and immediately toss with the shrimp and vegatable sauce. Serve at once. From: The New Basics Cookbook
