This is one of my least favorite episodes. Julie seems terribly distracted. I kept wondering what was wrong behind the scenes.

She should have greased the bowl with some olive oil

Bread is thousands of yeast cells eating, and then burping.

What a treasure she is. Anyone could make this. Maybe not in half an hour without some practice, but anyone could accomplish it.

Garlic loses all of it's medicinal properties when heated over 120 degrees. Can't imagine boiling garlic ouch. Aigo Bouido soup is not a popular soup in the US.

Always a pleasure to watch her work. Surely she knew her comedy.

I cook a roast chicken every week and it pales in comparison to Julia’s.😢 Every time I smear butter on my chickens, I think of her😢

i have lots of respect for Julia Childs, but you can't use the duck fat for anything??????????

Why did my eyes start watering when she started chopping the onions? 😆

Watched this on PBS as a child. Have worked in the food industry as Chef/Sales/Grocer ever since.

Too merengue = too much egg taste/chuquilloso

Brother, I could eat two boorgor. Maybe three, four, boorgor with cheese.

She just so honest! Instead of glamorous housewives with perfect hairstyles and manicure she get down and dirty and show you how to work a kitchen She’s an icon!

I helped my mother cook in the 1960's, it was our happy place. She got better at it thanks to Julia but my how times have changed. The demand for pre-cut chicken pieces and the necessity and awareness of washing hands and implements after cutting the bird have come about since then. Also, the 'filet mignon' is now known as the 'chicken tender'. This woman changed how we cook and eat and made food tastier - what a blessing.

Mississippi river.... lmao

Perché non si possono avere i sottotitoli in italiano? 😢

I rub my hands on stainless steel to remove onion smell.

I was hoping she'd juggle those four eggs at the beginning. It is amazing, how many dishes she created in 28 minutes. Now I know why I make a good omelet. Somehow I figured out the tips she just gave on my own, long ago. I don't know why. I am a terrible cook but I make good omelets, good meat loaf, and _bake_ a tasty hamburger. Perhaps it was because I was subjected to horrible omelets and greasy hamburgers and meatloaf in school and university cafeterias.

"This is a very undigified position for the chicken." 😅

Absolutely masters. Some of my most admired chefs.

Delicious

Love all of the comments below. But, I was born in 53 so I've seen the improvements in broadcast tv. Wow, the jump from 380 to 1K is unbelievable. I can't believe that we watched that crap. But we did.

Perfect!

Salted twice?

Living in a rooming house in Los Angeles with a shared kitchen during graduate school, a lot of my dinner cooking drew curious visits from housemates. Some would make a special trip to the kitchen, wondering what smelled good that particular night. But in retrospect, I have wondered if they thought me pretentious when I made endive and pronounced it "on-deev". Today is the first time I have ever seen this French Chef episode, but I just seemed to know to say "on-deev" and not "en-dive". One way I like to prepare them is to melt some Swiss cheese, and use the OIL from that melt (plus a bit of margarine) to sauté cross-cut endives and leeks. Further, add a bit of apple cider vinegar to the pan during the cook, and then top the finished melange with a sprinkling of black pepper plus a bare dusting of finely ground caraway seeds and allspice. My taste, not yours, so use this method of preparation at your own risk! Don't worry -- the melted cheese blob does not go to waste. It just gets "repurposed".

24:40 Don’t use DDT by accident!

Way too many intrusive ads!!!

Impressive!

He's a patient teacher, teaching the master

"Let me feel it" *licks finger* "mhmmmm"

"Obviously the people who designed these numbers on the pan didn't expect anyone to see them!" Classic

LEGENDS 🔥

I wonder how you can motivate people who are used to buying prepared food and loaf bread 🍞 to make their own processed food ? Sourdough loaf seems an alternative

Can someone do the math ... how many croissants did Julia end up with .... she's the math problem from grade school ... if Julia has 96 croissants

I watch these all day ! So comforting.

It really does not look good to the eyes! Maybe because of the poor cinematographic technology used during the long-gone era?

Like Julia so much; Ty’s for showing her shows from Days Gone By…..

Now I’m going to try poaching an egg…

I hope people ate all of that food and they just didn't throw it out.

If you can read, you can cook. If you have the passion you'll create a masterpiece.

i love seeing this and comparing it with other recipes that achive the same goal. Julia Child uses the Kirche liqueur to give the pastry cream an orange flavor while the culinary institute of america has you zest an orange for that same flavor profile

What a wonderful woman. These early cooking shows are great

Love her

i love, thank you! she makes it seem very very doable <3 <3

I think she is drunk in this...

5:46 ... the lucky guest that gets the slice with the crunch of eggshell in it 😂

I love how she tells her audience what kind of substitutes can be used for certain ingredients. At that time, not everyone in the US had access to the exact ingredients she preferred to use in her cooking, so telling everyone that they can use something a little different went a long way with lots of people.

Bon …une époque …pas très raffiné quand même comme cuisine …

Eal is a lean fish?! Learning every day 🎉

wow, in its 2024 now and i pay 18 euros for a kilo of hamburger from the butchers. 9$ per pound - ish u.s. i think.
