Delia through the decades. Episode 2

Series celebrating Delia Smith's career. The 1970s were the decade Delia first came to the nation's attention when given her own BBC series. Delia and her mother rewatch the show.

Coffee and Walnut Cake. To this day, my choice for a birthday cake or teatime cake. Love it❤

Delia's technique for Crispy Roast potatoes I have been doing for over 30 years. To this day, its the only technique that works for me. "Shake the potatoes " lol Shared with my American family and friends, they are converted. God Bless you Delia, you changed and influenced my life as a women, wife, mother and grandmother ❤

I’ve enjoyed this so much; thank you for posting. I’m not British, but who would argue that Delia is a treasure? Binge watching her while I do my own kitchen work is so relaxing & informative. (In the States.)

[@irishinusa1615]

Highly recommend one of her books. 👍😁

[@sarapawsonherrington2595]

Absolutely fascinating! We are about the same age, so the historical part is really close to home, but I was in the US.

I am 70 and I never her of her until I ran across this video. I liked the Christmas video. Britain is not known for its cuisine. She went to Italy to learn to cook.

The narration on this is brilliant. So funny!

[@Knappa22]

20:39 ‘whipped vegetable fat’, or what Mary Berry calls ‘baking spread’. What she and Delia mean is Stork!

There's not a man watching this who is not envious of her husband :) EDIT: Also, I am sure I am not the only one taking umbrage on her behalf at the "not sexy enough" gybe! :D

[@alewla9671]

You are big & gorgeous, I think & I thank you.
