I worked in many restaurants during college and early adulthood and nearly every chef I worked with had the highest reverance for Julia Child! She was their mentor and idol! Today it's Top Chef and Food Network idiots that come and go! But Julia remains the Gold Standard among real chefs! My own love and interest of cooking came from watching her on PBS every Saturday afternoon as a kid
👏👏👏👏
Well spoken and absolutely true!
This how a food show should be, good food and fun. Without the gimmicks.
We don't need the shouting and swearing.
My favourite chefs
The first was Julia child
Then it was Gary Rhodes
Now it's James Martin
They don't feel the need to shout, swear or use sexual innuendos to sell themselves.
It's just about enjoying good food.

@@tooljunkie89 Yeah, she was sharing knowledge, instead of showing off.
Paul was very secure in himself and the two were happily married well before her fame. They valued each other tremendously!
Julia was REAL! Not filtered totally upfront! ALL the cooking shows today owe her and her husband Paul for their collaboration and genius to bring cooking to T.V.
She is beyond an iconic legend, her passion translated to the people! She showed that ANYONE could cook!
She never tried to be glamorous only a simple woman with a zest for life and great cuisine! She is immortal!
I love her so much. Rest in peace 🙏 in heaven. She show us so much.
She is still my lovely favorite woman in the world .she will never fade away..she made the ones ahead of her famous but small in exciting.. I love her .
The best memories of my mother were of us watching Julia and Jacques. Thank you, Julia, for keeping me close to my mother.
Why does no one ever mention one of the greatest skills in the world that Julia had? CHARM!
The Godmother of modern-day cooking and cooking shows. A true Pioneer. Simply the best.
Julia Childs gifted her intact kitchen to The Smithsonian, I didn’t know it was there when I happened upon it, I was speechless to see it displayed there. During her kitchen’s disassembly, workmen even removed the plaster walls down to the studs for installation in the museum. All of her appliances, gadgets, and pots and pans are there, just as they were.
GREAT video! There will NEVER be another cooking-with-personality icon like Julia Child! 👩🍳🇫🇷❤️😜
Working at Boston’s Meridien Hotel / rebranded The Langham for over 30 years I had the honor of waiting on her and her husband for over 30 years. I adored her since black and white TV in grade school. I feel very very fortunate. Thanks for this highlight video.
Julia Child was a diver in the OAS and helped develop shark repellent. Truly a marvelous lady.
OSS
Nope, she wanted to be a spy, but was just a secretary in the OSS.
There are so many people who have benefited from this woman's tireless efforts! She is an American hero with a French heart!
I used to watch her on PBS as a child and loved her show
Don't even put that hack Rachael Ray in the same sentence as Julia Child. Julia remains the absolute queen of TV cooking. I have a vintage copy of Mastering the Art of French Cooking and it is one of the items I'd grab if there were a fire in my home.
😂 was thinking the same thing!
I loved her, she was just amazing! My sister watched from our home in NZ. In one episode she showed a gadget, explained how it worked, and then dropped it on the floor, saying “I do so hate those things”😂. I would love to see that segment again. What a inspiring and wonderful lady!
🤣
I know he didn't just say she wasn't beautiful! That whole statement could have been left out 😂🤦♀️ she was such a lovely woman. People like me see a person's true beauty that comes from within, and that lady was full of it ❤️ one could only hope to be a legend to her level one day ❤️
I completely agree with everything you wrote 😊👍
Thats a man
@@asantejsaymyname3537 hush that up 😂😂😂
I hear you. But He was making a point that beauty was the standard to appear on tv at that time and she didn’t fit that mould. We can’t deny the factual history of the time to make someone who passed away years ago feel better. We all know she was beautiful inside and it radiates from her :)
She was average looking to me. Some people would say, she was not a beauty.
Julia Child was a legend rest easy Queen of cooking
Julia and Graham Kerr and Jacque were my heroes growing up. By 6 I was in the kitchen making Crepe Suzettets at 8 and won tons by 10.
61 yrs later I am still in the cooking biz and have shared my knowledge with many and traveled the US cooking for many. Grew up in South Pasadena area so yeah !!!🤙👍✌💪🍾
Very neat that Julia inspired you. Sounds like you grew up in an idyllic place and time.
Renee- I am not a chef or even in the food biz. I retired from the US Navy in 2009 after 30 years. I cook all the time and consider myself blessed that I was able to watch chefs and not tv stars. Julia and Graham ignited my love of cooking. I can never forget the rising inflection of her voice when she said "Today on the French Chef!". She taught a sailor how to cook.
Sole Meunière is a culinary revelation, I agree. The simplicity belies the complexity of flavors and luxury of the meal.
Seeing Julia Child always makes my day. She's so iconic ♥️
My daughter won the Julia Childs Cordon Bleu scholarship in Bloomsbury London . She’s a legend .
Congratulations!
I learned how to cook because of her books rip to the pioneer🙏🏿
Overheard her say to her husband back in the early 80's at a BIG 5 store in Santa Barbara, Ca " Halloween colors? I hate Halloween colors" lol
Me too!
AND before Martha Stewart.... forever a fan of Julia!!!
I remember when I was small. I tried so many recipes. Now that I’m retired I cook so much. Today I made water pie and it is so good! I keep plugging n trying to change up all my dinners n deserts
She's a great American icon, but we were all in our enclaves eating wonderful food before she ever appeared on tv. We remember farm products, homemade noodles, immigrants coming in with wonderful recipes and ready to learn from their neighbors from other backgrounds. But Julia sure helped!
Julia Child, along with my mother and father, are my inspiration for love and passion for cooking
She is one of my heroes….even share the same birthday
It's an amazing thing to know Julia for the decades we have cooked with her. Such a sentimental journey. I feel the same about Jacques Pepin.
My saddest thought about dying is I won't be able to cook my beautiful food, with my prized pots and pans and equipment!!! Boo.
My God!!! the movie based on her story is amazing
My favorite memory of Julia Was when she went on Martha Stewart and they were making cream puff Christmas tree and Martha's was perfect of course & Julie's was a complete disaster She tried so hard it just made me love her more . It's better than any SNL skit
A Dancer,, lol.... that's so great/funny!! I can totally imagine this & love it!! TxU!
Lovely this was!!!💝
Julia was a game changer! Loved her, she had an amazing personality too! ❤
Love the show!❤️☺️
I watched her when I was a child ❤️
Really interesting documentary 👍
I love to watch her cook.
A Goddess who once was amongst us.
Speaking of “barrier-breaking women”, the show is named ‘Julia’ and that seems appropriate in more than one way. I remember another show with the exact same name from 1968, starring Diahane Carroll, that also broke some barriers.
I hadn’t heard of her until I Started watching the new HBO series on TV and think its fantastic , can’t wait for the 2nd season.
Thank you lesson
Watching Julia's cookins show is carthartic.
I miss you, Julia Child. I miss you very much!
Julia Child was and shall remain an American Goddess.
Love her..
Now we understand the film is featured here...one of the directors is the friend of an ABC News producer! Crazy!
I disagree. Julia is a fan fav of many and a documentary was made so they showcased it. They do other documentaries!
I loved it when she made a mistake and her attitude was "oh well, no biggie!" Fix it or start over. LOL
Meryl did a GREAT Julia Child in ‘ Julie and Julia’!😎
Perfect! 🎉
RBG was amazing,I cannot wait to see Julia.
All Hail Public Television! Julia Child, Mister Rogers, and Sesame Street all had a huge impact on America, and the world. Just crazy.
Julia will always be a legend!
Julia Child is a culinary trailblazer ❤
Apparently Paul was not impressed with Julia at first but changed his mind after spending a night with her? Oh my dear! Julia was indeed everything!
Awesome
WILL these mics work with a splitter for audio when I use STARMAKER live streaming?meaning live Video & audio singing (Iphone user)
Love watching her shows on Pluto TV. Has she ever featured an African American chef or black chef on any of her shows? I would love to see if ot so! I have seen a chef from India so I know she was open to other cultures.
At least one in the third episode of Cooking with Master Chefs.
Watching her on Pluto now - I’ve always enjoyed watching Julia cook, but in retrospect some of the techniques on the show have me cringing … raw chicken hands onto her eyeglasses, into the bowl of butter, on the lip of the cognac bottle … and then to round out the salmonella fest, she advocates tasting the stuffing into which she had just cracked a raw egg to check the seasoning. Mmmm. Times have changed! It’s amazing to see how far we’ve come. Chickens were cleaner back in the day, but still … ewww!
Don't ever compare Rachel with Julia even. That's just a joke.
She was an American treasure!
lovely
Loved Julia Childs.
E aqui no Brasil temos a Palmirinha ☺
Julia Child was a FAR superior cook AND FAR more naturally entertaining than any of these Food Network nobodies, teaching America to cook food that tastes as good as mediocre chain food. Like most things, go watch a rerun & get higher quality than today's shows. Early Emeril was semi-legit, but it's been downhill ever since.
PS don't forget Julia literally invented the genre. It did not exist until she created it! I recall as a very young child watching her shows. Sometimes I think she taught me to cook by osmosis. My Mom never let me help in the kitchen, yet when I started cooking as an adult, I was masterful at cutting everything, and just knew what to do. Bet I watched it when I was too young to know I was learning lol
Was that a young Bobby Flay in the background? Around 1:00 of the video?
First of all, Rachel Ray is NOT a rock star chef and shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence as Julia Child. As Martha Stewart said "she's more an an entertainer with a bubbly personality." Julia Child was the real deal. When one cooks and studies her methods, one really learns technique and hardly ever has to look at a recipe again. We don't see much of that these days on television except on PBS.
It is not her cook , it belongs to French cook. She honored the French food.
Legend
When is the Julia Child show?
_Julia_ , the documentary, is now screening in theaters.
What is the tool Julia Child used to flip the fish?
Julia Child was fabulous! But if you really think that American cooking before she started was pathetic, then I feel sorry for you, because you didn't have a mother who could cook like mine. Her meals were AMAZING! 😊
Paul brininger favorite show on earth
I am going to make one of the dishes.
The best thing on PBS in the early 70s. Besides ‘’Sesame Street’’.
❤
Secret weapons = loving intelligent husbands. Beautiful!😙 🍽📙
I hope they do one on Madeline Kamman
Kamman will be remembered more for her bitterness and professional jealously than she ever will for her cooking. It seems that her fans are the only ones who take delight in trying to dimish Julia Child's accomplishments and feel that by doing so they build up Kamman. Hasn't worked very well for them.
@@baritonebynight accurate
How quickly they forgot Dionne Lucas.
So sad.
Julia Child, for sure, was a great performer, a skilled teacher and she loved cooking (the omelette, though..). But not a word about French cooking, French cuisine in the trailer, that 's not fair.
Solo in America avrebbe potuto avere successo
Lastly Tiffany was right Today's CHEFS just show off.
They do not teach methods.
They just talk& entertain.
THAT, is not cooking.
I cooked for 30 yrs.
I, would have cut off my left arm to
have had her teach me.
I had to learn the hard way 1000's
of mistakes.
My fav. was when( making fr. on soup)
she showed how to hold a knife, how to use it.
PRICELESS🙏
Looks like a very young Bobby Flay behind her in the photo at 1:00
was that before or after he hopped up on the iron chef table lol
Still the gold standard.
An impressive person who didn't dwell on such incidentals as one's sex (unlike the American television presenters featured here).
It’s non-stop propaganda today
These white women further polishing the legacy of a complex person into mythic infallibility. I like how they don’t talk about Child’s racism or homophobia. She was groundbreaking, entertaining, etc but not perfect
Julie Cohen said American food was Pathetic, before Julia. Um, she's talking about Northern Food, Not Southern.
Apparently, like many people of her generation, she changed her tune once she knew gay people. It happens.
Tell me, since she was so ahead of her time.. and me watching these American cooking vlogging, which does NOT used her brilliant recipes, still today.. does anyone use this amazing cookbook at home over there?
A lot of people and chefs use her recipes.
Nobody in the South Cook like Julia. Northern Women do that. 😹😹😹😹😹
She was ahead of her time to the Women in the North, who have bad food.😹😹😹😹😹
How about Emma Goldman Next !
Anyone else notice Evan Peters from AHS as a unaged chef at 6:42 😮 ? Vampire chef.
Ironic how male chefs did not want women in the cooking profession while their mothers, wives, sisters, and many other women were most likely the person who cooked for the other family members and them until they became cooks/chefs.
I suspect most of it was sheer upper body strength. If you’re going to be slamming shoulders of beef around you do need a lot of strength.
Cut to the chase: nothing compares to a true eccentric. Stop over analysing it

I hate the way modern times tries to use everything that was every popular to try to suggest they were one with the "message". Julia was a typical housewife who liked to cook... hardly a modern feminist. If she supported planed parenthood, well likely because she lived in Cambridge and worked at PBS, practically a requirement even then.
In terms of the game back then. She was a pioneer. As a woman in her 50s with a big hit tv show in a genre that did not exist before her. She was the first celebrity chef. Her show and book impacted the cooking scene in a big.
Aww you didn’t do the brick on the lobster pot 😂😂😂
Read below ♥️💕✨🌟
Something that they didn't mention becasue it probably would have ruined the entire mood of the clip is that she was 'homophobic' (quotation mark because everyone was like that back then and the propaganda was very strong) and was criticized for not allowing gay men in the kitchen, until one of her friend lost the battle to AIDS, after which she became more sympathetic to gays. After all, people can change.
Rachel Ray hacks Mexican food. We saw the video of Mexican Mum's being horrified😂😂😂😂😂😂
rachel ray is neither a chef, nor a rock star. She is well-known, and popular, but that is all. She is a highly skilled home cook turned Food Network gold, but she is not a chef. Not by a long, long mile. As far as rock star, well, she is not universally popular, she just isn’t. She is a sometime punchline, and not in a good way.

Julia Child really was the great pioneer in American cookery. Before the 1920s, there were a lot of delicious ethnic cuisines in the U.S. due to the huge waves of immigrants, mostly from Europe, who came over. But as soon as the tap of immigrants was cut off in the 1920s and 1930s, the assimilationist zeal of the children of these immigrants went into overdrive and these ethnic cuisines very quickly became marginalized and forgotten, or even shameful. This was at the peak of what I call "aspic hell"--where suburban housewives were taught newfangled, "modern" recipes that for some bizarre reason were drowned in aspic, leading to tasteless dishes. It was DISGUSTING food. But it had the cache of the "modern." Then Julia Child comes along and leads a revival in ethnic cuisines, starting with the "finest" of them all--French food. She quickly revives Italian food too, then Tex-Mex and all sorts of other foods. Now we're in the middle of a food renaissance in America thanks in large part to Julia Child and the revolution she fostered.
I agree but to be fair a lot Mexicans in the American south west still made their ethnic foods. Julia is still is amazing though.
The South always had good food. Julia didn't teach, the deep South nothing. Y'all mean the North and Midwest.
How did she revive Tex Mex food.😂😂😂😂😂
Julia didn't help the South. And revive Italian food, how.
Do we have to keep seeing Goerge, perveyor of lies? At the end of every video.
These press people are forcing their narrow itty bitty concepts onto hisrory.
Exactly. It's nauseating
Agree. Back in the day when I was a student everyone would get stoned and collapse in laughter watching her show - she is a comic genius, eccentric , totally honest and a great cook (not sure how many of us took any notice of the recipes). These guys are over analysing and missing the point
