It's what you re-light the Pascal candle with at the vigil service. We used to do it in the Holy Hibachi, but we now use the Sacred Spittoon, filled with epsom salts and rubbing alcohol which makes a spectacular but easily extinguished fire.

Printer version of this recipe

About a half gallon carton of epsom salts and pour a pint of rubbing alcohol over it and light it. Our Sacred Spittoon sits on a marble topped plant stand and burns outside the narthex until it burns out.
