Julia Child's Lamb Burger is a Hidden Treasure

[@OOHyouwish]

One of your videos randomly popped up in my suggestion list a few weeks ago - I've lost count on how many of your videos I've watched since then. Your videos cheer me up, help calm my anxiety, and just overall make me smile. I wanted to comment and say thank you, your content has really helped someone through tough times!

[@antichef]

That’s so nice! It means a lot. Glad my kitchen stress can calm your stress 😅❤️

His Videos do the Same for me too! I started watching months ago and I cant stop. I've rewatched many. I fall asleep to them at night sometime too. So interesting and relaxing!

[@racquelrobinson3030]

I have no idea why this guy is so addictive, but I have a few ideas. He's THE home cook. The frustration, the optimism buried in there, and the feeling of defeat when it doesn't come out great, but you still feel kinda proud that you followed through. And of course, the UTTER confusion of following a recipe when the instructions are as foreign as an European language. I've found him a little over a week and I've gone seen him grow so much, from where he had vids from 2019 clocking at best 9k views to now having 39k in little over a day. He's been a great watch since then and his old stuff is just as great. Sure, he improved, but the energy and love for cooking is still there. Great watching you, Jamie. Congrats in getting over 7k subs in a week! Signed -Happy New Subscriber.

[@ScottLuvsRenFaires]

Jamie, you are starting to play with your food. Good for you! I am glad to see you have the confidence to mix up the recipes a bit and also to figure out how to utilize what you already have in the fridge even if it isn't what the recipe calls for. Not only does that attitude reduce food waste and save money, it is how we make happy accidents. Most of the world's best traditional dishes started out as happy accidents.

[@PyrrhusBrin]

Bob Ross would agree, cooking food is really just a different form of art.

[@Johanna.EG.]

This is the calmest Jamie and Julia yet. You've come so far!

[@Okiepharmer]

I love cucumbers on a burger, so good! My grandmother loves lamb burgers. I’m inspired. OMG! Your patreon supporter list has EXPLODED! Congratulations 🎉

[@Wguy56]

Whenever I use buns for burgers or sausages, I hollow out the inside top and bottom to lessen the amount of bread but also so the meat and veggies are cradled within and don't scoot out.

[@laurensabino182]

Jamie! Just yesterday I made the Tomatoes a La Provençal recipe you featured recently… and it was so good! It’s not often I can find a Julia recipe that’s relatively healthy, easy/quick, and vegetarian friendly and this one was a showstopper. The only difference I made was adding a little sprinkle of Parmesan to the top before putting them in the oven. Thanks for featuring it! 🍅❤

[@raerohan4241]

Just want to say in case you didn't know: if it's genuine parmesan (Parmigiano-Reggiano), it's not vegetarian! This is because of the use of calf's stomach as the rennet source in its production. Other parmesans can also contain animal rennet (often listed as animal enzymes on labels), so you want to look for labels that specifically state vegetable rennet or microbial enzymes when buying parm. This also applies to other cheeses

[@laurensabino182]

@@raerohan4241 oh, I know. I’ve been a herbivore for the majority of my life- over 12 years now. I know to read labels 😊 Thanks for mentioning in case another unknowing veggie stumbled upon this thread, however.

[@shirleycastle5170]

You do burgers the way YOU like. This one looks very yummy!

[@Hollis_has_questions]

A beautiful burger. I myself would stuff it into a toasty pita, with all the ingredients you used: red onion, tomato, cucumber, tzatziki, and crumbled feta. Still messy, but the pita is better at holding everything together and it isn’t filling like that humongous brioche bun. I’d definitely add mint, although basil works. But I love mint with Greek food.

[@AbituriErpel]

Happy belated 2-year-anniversary, Jamie and Julia. Do you realise, it's been yesterday two years ago when the first vid of this series came out? 🥳🎉

[@BeinDraug]

Just discovered you the other day, ive been watching your early stuff and seeing the guy who didnt even know the meanin gothe worde Saute to seeing you improv a recipie like this is amazing

[@ninetterosenfeld6573]

So I’ve been binging this series and I have to say I now live for Julia’s little post orgasmic giggle in the intro. Such a great start to the rollercoaster to come. Also… I appreciate the music selection very much. Diverse yet always on point and reflecting the spirit of the dishes 👍

[@antichef]

That giggle haunts my dreams 😂😂 And thank you for the compliment!

Nice Jamie, nice! I'm in the unique position where I have watched your entire back catalogue over the last 2/3 weeks and really seen you develop. You're doing well brother. Keep it up, you got me hooked on your journey.

[@angedenpeacelove_411-00]

I just found your channel like a month ago and I must say you are a complete joy to watch. It is rare to see such thorough cooking without all those jump cuts and what not. Love your channel and hope you get millions of subs one day

[@sus1221]

I highly recommend using your oven as a proofing box when working with yeast dough... especially during colder weather. Just put the covered dough bowl into the top rack of a cold oven, and on the bottom rack, put an empty pan. Using your kettle, add boiling water to fill the pan about halfway, then close the oven to hold the hot steam in.

[@notthecheshirekat2596]

And turn on the oven light, it helps maintain the ideal temperature for proofing

[@jonaschick912]

i'm SO happy i found this channel!

[@Kayla_Kimbrell]

After binge watching your very first videos last night.. I gotta say, again, I miss seeing your wife taste testing your dishes with you at the end of your videos!! Please bring her back. I enjoyed seeing her reactions to each dish and giving her critiques and approvals.

[@heatherd.8783]

Just want to say, I LOVE your style of video! You motivate me to try some of Julia's more difficult recipes myself 🙂

[@carveylover]

I love to make Lamb Burgers with a Mediterranean flare. I add a tzatziki on top and roasted red pepper spread. Some really nice lettuce too. They are so yummy. I have also put babaganoush and tabouli on them too. I know lamb is not for everyone but I like it alot. If I don't have enough lamb I will add some mince beef to fill it out. I thought these looked so delicious!

[@warwickemanuel1088]

This is what I enjoy when cooking! Having the skills to make the individual components, creating something myself from those components, having the determination to try, and end up make something I prefer, not just blindly following a recipe. Jamie youve done this in this episode, so very well!

[@AndreaGracie]

I’m with Amanda. I stumbled upon your series and now I’m hooked. I totally sympathize with your frustration. This delightful series has inspired me to cook more. And… I have cooked the past 2 nights for my husband and toddler. Thank you for this. Keep up the great work.

[@user-tu9gk3bu7t]

It’s so fun to watch you attempt all these recipes (and succeed, mostly). You don’t take yourself too seriously, which is so different from other “cooking” videos. And you’re are hilarious! I just crack up when I watch you! Keep it up because you are so entertaining.

I wholeheartedly agree with your cooking methods on the first burger! I was always told minced meat needed to be cooked through.. Love a medium rare steak, but burgers have to be cooked through!!

[@LeesaDeAndrea]

I enjoy your videos even though I can't eat the stuff you make. I find them very relaxing. Maybe because you are not a professional chef but you don't let the recipes intimidate you and you demonstrate they are doable even for non-experts. It's comforting, in a way.

[@rosiepeliska]

I love that you made it your own, Jamie! You've really been inspiring me :)

Thank you for creating this video. I have failed miserably cooking with lamb. A tip of thought: Coning the top bun basically removing some of the bread with a spoon or your fingers from the top part of your bun allows room for your vegetables. I love myself a messy vegetable loaded burger. Perfect choice of bun.

Came across your channel recently and love it. I love when things go wrong--not out of any schadenfreude, but that it reflects Julia's acceptance that things go wrong in the kitchen and that's ok. Also, I feel detached from cookery programmes/ videos that show a perfect recipe and perfect cook; yours is real. I'm commenting here to help you with the algorithm.

I loved the bun, but one thing I do whenever I get one that's thick like yours was is hollow out some of the bread from each inside. That way, when I add the sauce and toppings, the sides of the bun nearly completely enclose it all! Very little spillage. 👍
