- From her "Adventurous Cooking" series.
7: Cakes and Puddings (I) including:
Henry VIII shoe buckles, chocolate cream pudding, and Italian trifle
Producer, Victor Poole
It’s amazing how she went from the traditional attire of the early sixties to this “mod” look complete with boots a year or two later.
She has an extremely sharp mind and is a total professional. It's like watching machine-gun fire. Never a doubt, never a pause ... completely thought through in her mind and exactly tailored to the pressure of time.
Like her or loathe her, she is so articulate, and never misses a beat !
LOVE her white go-go boots!!
I love her way of explaining and doing. Classic Fanny
“This is a little sherry shaker, Victorian job, which I picked up in a junk shop in Reading for a shilling.” 😁😁😁
Love her clipped way of talking.
… though I’m sure that sherry shaker is just a vinegar bottle!
Giving a cookery demonstration on live tv is not for the faint hearted.
She probably didn't have all the advisers and food stylists that today's prima donna's have! Her methods and instructions were so good that our donuts continue to turn out like Fanny's!
She's a hoot! My favorite thing is that she always does something at the very last minute to make it look awful! 😂
Remember the Fanny Cooks Christmas episode on choux pastry? She showed us these amazing, hollow puffs and then proceeded to cover them up in ghastly pink icing. They looked like rocks from the bottom of a riverbed!
@@nekomochi486 choux pastry isn't supposed to be like puff pastry.
More Fanny please....we need more fanny in the world.
That hair style has a life of its own.
true
More of Fanny please! Despite having done so many programs, it seems quite hard to find them any longer!
Sadly the BBC failed to archive nearly all of them so they're lost (and no one had home VHS players during her era). Her wonderful Christmas series is on UA-cam.
What a shame, but thanks for the info. And yes, I've watched the X mas series multiple times :)

MORE FANNY!!
Thank you very much for posting this and other programmes. I find Fanny Cradock a really interesting character (the documentary "The real Fanny Cradock" is somewhere on UA-cam, as you no doubt know), so to see her programmes is really great.
Just in case you haven't found it yet, "fear of fanny" is on here too!
Fanny Cradock, now that's a British name if I ever heard one! Love it! Good stuff here!
That wasn't her real name though.
Vanilla pod is "perfectly hygienic, it just happens to be clean-black instead of clean-white" :-) Fantastic! Destroying people's mental shortcuts while teaching how to cook...
Fantastic uploads. A real treat to see these. Thanks
Thanks for your support Kraig
she's so fabulous.
Lol, I like the way Simon grinned when Fanny burnt her hands! 😁
i love the music... groovy, man!
We love Fanny
:)
I adore fanny
Good tip for soggy bottoms. Custard on the pastry first.
Simon's kind of cute!
13:29 Simon brings the tray supposedly straight out of the oven. Fanny says to him: "It's too hot for me to take it from you..." and yet at 14:54 she lifts the same tray up with both hands without any hesitation and hands it back to him
That was very entertaining and informative!
I wish someone would colourise those black-and-white videos .. FANNY IN TECHNICOLOUR
She was making the same shows 5-10 years later, in colour.
Now I would love to watch Fanny in Technicolour!
17:54 This is called a "croustade" in French which is called in English an "all purpose pastry case for filling with either sweet or savoury mixtures" :-)))
I think she was explaining it for people who had previously only ever eaten jam roly-poly and similar puddings. Had she been Delia Smith 15 years later, she would have said "croustade"- but you have to start somewhere. Most people watching this show had been through the war and even the younger ones had gone through food rationing.
Sure. I think she puts it very elegantly. She proves to the viewers that there is no need to shy away from French terms, and at the same time, she explains it to them without lecturing. @@anonUK
That flan looks lovely!
That cake looks nice. Did they have sell by dates on things then or just put a label on for how long things lasted in a fridge?
I love fanny. Just saying!
That would look great in colour!
The hair is so Amanda Lepore!
Grapefruit????
Fanny batter!
Where did fanylearnto cook?
Who was the other British lady that cooked on TV in the 70s. Very attractive lady (I thought so anyway)...She had a bad arm from a birth defect. I found her shows here on UA-cam a year or so ago, and loved them. I discovered her from the recommended videos from watching Julia Child videos.
Mary Berry
@@giulioz.4928 That's it! Thank you! Loved her videos too!
@@Rotary_PhoneMary Berry contracted polio as a teen, which resulted in a twisted spine and weakened left arm and hand. Delia Smith is also a cookery presenter from the 1970s.
Her hair is a little distracting, I love to watch her though she is a very talented cook.
God shes camp x
Henry VIIIs bows look more like swastikas 🙈
You can't beat a bit of Fanny. Modern cooks/chefs quite boring on the whole!
She’s so messy in the kitchen 😬
The last thing I want is a fake British Julia Child with a high school teacher attitude
For what it's worth, Fanny was at it before Julia, and she's not "fake British" - she really was British.
@@rah62 LOL

Fake Julia Child, I think s/he means.
