    Dude! It really feels like we saw your cooking growth in this episode! Making your own decisions about the mushrooms, trussing the chicken without the books instructions, fixing mistakes without full meltdowns. Compared to your earlier episodes, you seem much more confident in what you're doing. Really proud of you! This was a great episode!

      No doubt! Great episode for sure. He's come a long way since that Christmas Fruitcake episode, even though I still love the old episodes. I have to admit though, (I work in a library), I cringe a bit when I see the condition of his book. It needs to spend some time in the Preservation Department for repairs. With that being said, I too am guilty of having wrecked some cookbooks myself...so glad they are still in print. I'm sure someday we'll be seeing him making bones some day for his own demi-glace.

    • @ronschlorff7089
      @ronschlorff7089 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Yes, most have no strong flavor of their own they soak up a sauce and acquire that taste in a dish like this. But if just eaten solo I suppose there are distinct flavors of the different kinds, like morels, and that's the way to eat an "expensive" shroom!

    @cocoxcocoa ปีที่แล้ว +34

    So just a quick food safety tip for any time anyone makes a stuffing that goes inside a chicken, turkey, etc, as it cooks.
    Make sure you do a temperature check of the stuffing as well as the chicken. Because as the chicken cooks it will release a lot of its uncooked juices into the stuffing, and if the stuffing doesn't get up to temp then there is a risk of food poisoning. If the stuffing isn't up to temp when the chicken is then just scoop it into an oven safe bowl or something and toss it back into the oven until it is.

      As an executive chef for many years, i cannot agree with this more! Love that Julia only cooks the chicken to 155F, but eating that stuffing would make me very nervous.
      In fact, I never stuff a bird for this reason exactly. The bird will overcook by the time the stuffing is safe to eat.

    @uleubner 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    I made this, inspired by this video. However, I followed the recipe found in Vol 2 rather than Vol 1.
    It's simpler than this version, as it doesn't involve browning the chicken. I also skipped the trussing, as I wasn't going to serve it whole, I just wanted some cooked chicken meat for the week. I used dried tarragon, according to the directions, because that's what I had. And rubbing the butter into the skin didn't really work, it just sort of smeared and fell off, so I just put it in the poaching liquid, since it wasn't going to brown the chicken, and would just melt and wind up there anyways.
    It still was utterly moist and delicious, and the sauce is amazing. And simple to make - a roux based gravy made with some of the poaching liquid, with some cream and a little lemon juice. I skipped the final stir-in of butter, as it was more than rich enough from the cream and the butter in the roux and poaching liquid.

      Yes, we must remember that this book came out as a chance for the American "housewife", who had a lot of time in the home, to cook a special meal for her "nuclear family". She, not needing to work, the economy being good enough in that era that only one worker, the man, was needed to keep a family alive, had hours to be creative in the kitchen, instead of popping Swanson TV dinners in the oven. And, because time was not an issue, she could get into the intricate cooking details contained in Julia's book. So, as we saw in a famous TV sitcom of the era, June Clever had the whole day to cook a great and interesting dinner, until her sons Wally and the Beaver returned from doing what they do, with friends Lumpy and Eddie Haskell, and her husband Ward came home from his mysterious job "at the Office". LOL ;D

    I grew up as a little kid in the 70s seeing Julia Child on PBS. In the 80s it was cool to make fun of her and her mannerisms. But in the late 90s, I graduated from college and started adult life. And came back to Julia.
    I found reliable cooking methods in her two ‘Mastering’ books, I saw the lineage of TV chefs who depended on her, and I learned her story about how she learned to cook as an adult.
    Julia fell in love with French food and wanted to duplicate the flavors she knew. She fought to attend the Cordon Bleu and get real instruction that was not previously available to women. And she turned the arcane knowledge of French cooking into something everyone could understand with her books, and later shared with her TV shows.
    I have watched you begin your cooking journey at a similar age to when Julia did. I am seeing you bring the love and respect for French cuisine to a new generation just like she did, and I’m so happy when I see the way you you engage with these traditions.
    In videos like this, I see the way you are becoming your own cook, making choices that are yours are. It makes me so happy because you set out to become better at cooking, and I can see you in a video like this, you’ve crossed that threshold where cooking is not something you’re practicing or learning, it’s something you were _doing_ like breathing. I honestly cried with happiness watching you. Once you cross that boundary, it’s part of you, this is no longer a thing you do, this is who you are.
    One of the few things that makes us worthy of the status we give ourselves as humans is preparing food and sharing it with others. You reinforce this with every episode, and it warms this old Gen Xer’s heart to see Julia remains alive and well, and that there’s a strong foothold of good humans cooking out there. Much peace and kindness to you, sir.

    Cooking the mushrooms without butter makes a ton of sense. Mushrooms are mostly water by weight, but their chitinous fibers are more resistant to heat than the cellulose of vegetables. You can cook them and drive off moisture before adding a fat or oil, and they’ll absorb less oil while tasting just as good. It’s a good move, especially when you skip wringing them out (which I agree is unnecessary).

    Hi, you can use water from Mushrooms to make your stock. If stuffing don't need other ingredients inside. When trussing sew up the end you stuffed and stuff in other end and sew down flap. That way stuffing doesn't ooze out and when you carve breast in slices then it is sliced stuffing too. We also add more veg and even potatoes to sit under bird but not u sides as then doesn't roast. With lid on shouldn't need foil and skin will be browner. Can never have too much butter!😎 Best way for tasty chicken. Stuffed roll of lamb is also amazing. Loving the Julia stuff.🎇

    The reason why you squeeze the moisture out of the mushrooms is so you can caramelize them. Water prevents caramelization. Yeah, the water will cook off, but by the time that happens they’re overcooked and not caramelized at all. The fond you deglase off the pan after you remove the mushrooms is the result of that caramelization. Also, anything with sugar in it can caramelize, not just meat.
