So sad Julia’s not still with us loved her style she made cooking so easy

I love these shows, Julia was a very special woman. Her cooking demos were perfection, but I loved the little films of her going out on a boat, or visiting a restaurant chef - whatever she did and whoever she met, she brought such genuine enthusiasm. She was no food snob, but the ultimate 'people person', for whom food was a powerful way to bond with other humans. These shows are a joy - thank God we still get to enjoy her irresistible magic through the wonder of video!

Julia Child is the main reason I went to Johnson and Wales University Culinary arts in 1982.

That has to be the most elaborate eggplant/aubergine dish ever made! It's the sort of complicated dish modern hostesses are advised to avoid like the plague, unless they want a nervous breakdown at their own dinner party!

I wish people would host fancy dinner parties again. The casual cookouts get old.

But that would mean getting out of my pajamas. ;). I think both Julia and Paul must have given many , many dinner parties during Paul’s diplomatic postings.

@@chrishintz1077 Indeed they did - I believe their dinner parties as newlyweds in Paris (they moved there in 1948) were legendary. Though their French apartment was not the most spacious, the meals she produced out of that small kitchen were by all accounts extraordinarily good. Julia was a new student at the famous 'Cordon Bleu' cookery school, exploring her burgeoning love for French cuisine, as she fell more and more in love with her doting new husband Paul. She used entertaining as a way to experiment with recipes, and treat her guests as taste-testers! If you've never read Julia's book 'My Life in France', which is all about these blissful years with Paul in Paris before she became a TV star, you are in for a treat!

I agree, formal dinner parties are uniquely fun. I suspect they fell out of fashion because too much of the work fell to the lady of the house, which meant she couldn't enjoy the evening herself. Julia Child and her husband Paul were a great team in this respect. While she did all the meal prep (because she loved it), he was supportive and happily helped her with anything she asked of him. But where he really came into his own was his knowledge and enthusiasm for fine wines. He would take care of that side of the evening, choosing, prepping and pouring the wines, and regaled guests with his encyclopaedic knowledge of the whole subject.

I love how every time, Julia grandly announces "Dinner is served!" to a packed room of 50 or 60 people, but only ten of them will get to join her around the dining table for the top-draw feast with fine wines! What happens to the other guests? Are they banished outside, for back yard burgers, hot dogs and beer?!
