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.
- Blending hot liquid. Let it cool a little first, fill the blender no more than a third, and hold the lid down with a folded towel. Start on the lowest speed. A stick blender in the pan is safer.

- Although homemade tomato juice will keep only for a few months, it is a good way of profiting from a tomato glut.
- Choose very ripe, juicy tomatoes.
- Wash them well, dry and sieve (or purée in a blender), collecting all the liquid in a large bowl.
- Add a little salt to a cupful of this thick juice and stir thoroughly, making sure the salt dissolves.
- Add to the bowlful of juice and mix well.
- Bottle and seal as usual, then sterilize for 1hr.
- If you prefer, bottle small quantities in little beer bottles;
- sterilize for Yahr (or for 20min if you add salt to the sterilizing water, after which the water will boil at a higher temperature).
