It All Ends with Julia Child's Chocolate Almond Crêpes

[@HumblElephant]

This channels the reason I attempted a Wellington for Christmas dinner this year and based on the success of that alone I’m forever indebted to Jamie

[@suran396]

I have also attempted some difficult dishes I never thought I would try because of Jamie! The one that realky stands out is the Pumpkin Milkbar Cake. Beef Wellington is on my list.....it really didn't look that complicated!

[@hjaltihjartarson]

The Blender has a new name. Belinda!

[@franckmercier-cotnoir4369]

It was my first thought too! HAHA

[@Mandeley100]

That was my second thought. My first was Brenda!!

[@wietse1113]

Belinda is well known for her quality cookware! (Real Belinkers know what I’m talking about)

[@x.y.7385]

The blender has been around as long as the granny. It should be Bob the Blender.

[@Emily.R.W]

Just make sure to pronounce it properly. It’s Be-Linda… but it may possibly change it to Blinda if goats find it hard to pronounce. Sorry, been watching too much Wicked. 😅

[@cecilbrisley5185]

You have entertained me, made me laugh, impressed me, inspired me, taught me. Thank you.

[@clairelevasseur9434]

❤😊❤

[@tammyford2357]

I agree! Anytime I’m planning to try a new recipe from Julia, I always check to see if Anti-Chef has made it. It helps me avoid the pitfalls. 😂

[@neil2796]

The video title had me fearing you were ending the channel. I'm glad it's just the end of year episode.

[@vickiraeborn]

Ok, I’m outing myself as a clueless viewer; I pretty much only watch you on KZbin. So I’m picking up all of the nuances slowly… mostly through context. In the introductions to your videos, I see your address in case I want to “send (you) something.” I don’t have a clue as to what I’m supposed to send…? I remember seeing a Martha Stewart inspired elf on the shelf, but I can’t believe that anyone would want more than one of those…? Am I supposed to be motivated to send cash? THAT just doesn’t sound like you… And I think that Patreon is the receptacle for that, anyway…or do I have this all wrong? Please believe that my question is 100% sincere… I’m kind of afraid of snarky replies from people who are NOT you. I have endlessly enjoyed your posts… I have no idea how I ever happened to find you years ago… I guess I have to thank the algorithms that exist for KZbin‘s sake…? My own copies of both volumes of Julia‘s classic books were well-worn and much loved BEFORE my life afforded me the time to discover the more fun parts of the Internet. (I had worked for years as a systems engineer for IBM, so there wasn’t a whole lot of “fun“ while we were attempting to get the first desktop computers out the door. Unfortunately, spare cash is not easy to come by, but in case I ever win the lottery, your name would be on the IOU list. So what would be on this wish list of yours that I could send you? Vanilla beans?

[@earlchapman8729]

As a Canadian living in Belgium, I can confirm that a frangipane filled croissant is not only readily available at just about all grocery stores and bakeries, but are also absolutely delicious.

[@unhappypositron2418]

I have visited this channel during many tough times this year. It has been the wordt year yet and I am here again trying to calm my panic attack. I dont know if it gets better, but thank you for this sense of comfort youve created for me on this tiny space of the internet.

When you called the Blender Blenda it reminded me of Miss Piggy's daughter in A Muppet Christmas Carol "I'm BELINDA." I'm voting that you name the blender Belinda. Have a happy new year, you and your family!

[@Susan-cooks]

Those crepes looked delicious. Anti-Chef 2024 kicked ass! Looking forward to Anti-Chef 2025, especially the debut of Baby Chef 👶

[@argusfleibeit1165]

That's the way to go out. Yeast, orange, almond, butter, sugar, chocolate! YUM!

[@italiana626sc]

When you were placing the rolled crepes in the bare dish, I was yelling "You've got to butter it!!" Glad you eventually did! I'm personally glad you went to the middle of the finished version - it looked like the best. Happy New Year, Jamie!!

[@CalicoShadowPlusCat]

Call me weird but when I was growing up and watching Julia Child cooking shows on PBS, I thought she was saying “Go on out for tea!” This recipe is deceptively easy and easy to screw up. Making crepes can go easy but if you are impatient or inattentive they can easily burn, tear, or just gum up. Practice makes perfect! I love whipping up a gateaux of crepes with alternating fruits or fruit jam and chocolate or hazelnut spread. Love this video! It brings back memories and is a great way to finish out the year! Happy holidays and here’s to a Hopeful and Happy New Year!

[@dDbalL-to7rt]

Happy New Year!!! I know this is Jamie and Julia in French cuisine, but you say crepes and it makes me think of a Japanese street food I saw once called Crepe Brulee!! You start with an overly large 14 inch crepe, fold in half. Put in a couple thin slices of cheesecake, sliced strawberries, and some whipped cream. Roll up like a cone. Drop a dollop of custard into the top, sprinkle with sugar, and torch. Creme Brulee topped strawberry cheesecake crepe cone - Crepe Brulee

[@suran396]

Wow! That sound decadent!

[@Enhancedlies]

I shall make this for my parents and grandma when she arrives tomorrow! Much love from across the pond! Happy Christmas, Jamie

[@johannalong473]

I often make crepes from my sourdough discard. They’re fantastic!

[@gwinn7830]

Thanks Jamie for a great year. I enjoyed it all and just made the boeuf bourguignon for friends and they loved it. Thanks to Julia and you. Wishing you a great 2025 and I’m looking forward to all your recipes.

Your deftness with the crêpes really shows how far you’ve come. It’s a pleasure to watch. Thanks for a year of great videos! Happy 2025!!

[@ahollingsworth457]

✨Thank you to the crew and families who make Anti-Chef possible. This past year has been a fun journey and I can’t wait to see what 2025 bring✨ 🍾🥂Happy New Year 🥂🍾

[@LindaB651]

I always assumed that all the excess food gets fed to your friends and nearest contacts- your extremely fortunate friends and contacts! I'm an old lady- grew up watching Julia's show "The French Chef" but have never tackled her recipes. Thank you for entertaining me, and showing me it can be done in a normal kitchen! Happy New Year to you and yours!

[@lobstermash]

I think in Jamie's attic there is a portrait of Jamie showing him very very very fat ...

[@BethDoublekickChick]

I can already hear the Julia giggle even as the ads play before the video 😂 Bon appetite Jamie 🤘

[@curtbonnell4308]

When is mini anti-chef due?????? Bet you're excited by now. Now on to the video. Happy New Year to you and your family.

[@VidRackoff]

If Jamie or his wife has a sister, she will be the Auntie Chef!

Jamie and Co. i.e., mini- chef and Christy, have a wonderful New Year! Have a safe New Year's Eve. See you in the new year.

[@TheJdmcdon]

The time between Christmas Day and January 6th is all still Christmas! The twelve days we sing about start on the 25th so you’re not nowhere you’re still in Christmas! Hope that helps. Thank you for being here for us all.

[@cam232425]

I am so impressed and inspired by how far your cooking skills have come!! Crepes alone are tricky, and you being able to eyeball a quarter cup of milk really speaks to how much practice you have in the kitchen. A hearty ayo to the new year; may it bring good things to you and yours, and thanks for all the laughs and joy in 2024! 🎉

[@kittenpaws432]

You have one of my favorite channels, Jamie. I've dropped channels when they seem like they just don't care once they've "arrived", and you keep getting better and better. The quality and thoughtfulness you apply every time, every episode, is fun, always interesting and entertaining. Happy New Year, Jamie and family. Looking forward to 2025.

[@dominictalbot3720]

today's video made me realize i honestly trust your cooking ability, and similarly, made me recognize just how far you've come. a fantastic way to end the year!

[@royst.george7328]

Happy New Year! You need two offset spatulas, (small and large) for spreading frostings, fillings and for flipping crepes and lefsa! They're a great kitchen tool!

[@calvinsbnb76]

I was impressed with how deftly you may those crepes using that pan. I've only ever succeeded in making them with a crepe pan, and even then the first one never turns out! Anyway, glad I found this channel. Always inspiring and entertaining!

[@beth-eileenwalker8579]

It always begins and ends with Julia... Great choice and love this! Looking forward to what you create and choose to challenge yourself with in the New Year! Happy 2025!

I’d sprinkle the sugar on the crepes before putting them in the oven, melt the chocolate with the butter and pour it onto the crepes after they come out of the oven. But this crepe recipe looks stellar. Good job.

Next time you make enchiladas, please line pan with parchment paper or foil before putting shredded cheese on the bottom. Place the rolled enchies on top before baking them on high. Cheese crust is the best!
