Baked Dish (partial recipe)
A fragmentary colonial-era baked dish, prepared in a silver or oven-safe dish and served with its own cooking sauce on a napkin. Due to the incomplete source text, full ingredients are not recoverable.
Ingredients
- 1 portion sauce (from cooking) (The sauce the dish was cooked in; specific sauce ingredients are not recoverable from the source text.)
Instructions
- 1Prepare a silver dish or any oven-safe dish that can withstand the heat of the oven. Ensure the dish is clean and ready to hold the prepared ingredients. Note: the specific ingredients to be placed in the dish are not recoverable from the source text.
- 2Preheat your oven to a moderate temperature (approximately 180°C / 350°F as a modern guide for an unspecified oven). Place the prepared dish into the oven and bake for ten minutes, until the contents are well cooked through.
- 3Remove the dish from the oven carefully using oven mitts. Serve the baked contents directly in the dish they were cooked in, along with the sauce that formed during cooking.
- 4Place the dish onto a folded napkin on the serving plate or table. This both stabilises the hot dish and presents it neatly for serving.
