I hope you don't make it like she does in the video cause that is definitely not Boeuf Bourguignon. And I'm telling you that as a french who loves cooking.... We 've always seen Julia's cookbooks as an insult to the french cuisine as it is absolutely not accurate.
BTW : 2.5 hours for a bourguignon is a joke. Count 4 hours at least, the day before you eat it. You don't eat Bourguignon the day you cook it. Like pretty much all the french dishes
@@lexcorpone I don't use a dish in the oven. I cook it on the stove. but also.. Yes the woman who spent years living in France and went to a French cooking school in France got everything horribly wrong.... sure. Food should be enjoyed. Not everyone needs to have a stick up their ass about everything. I'm sure I could find a lot of French people who both agree and disagree with you. There is no definitive right way to cook a dish as long as the basic structure is followed. Are you also forgetting she had two other women who were French co-authoring the book for more recipes/accuracy?
@@quinton50h haha, you see, the basics isn't followed as the time is wrong, the order is wrong (the meat must go in the wine, raw, not colored). But yes, in France Julia is used as a metaphore to describe someone who doesn't know how to cook properly, even on TV in shows like MasterChef. What is sad is that she did go to cooking school in France, but she obvisouly didn't manage to get most of it. But as a Frenchman who has lived in the US for 3 years, I was chocked by how bad the food was. Even more when people used to tell me "I love cooking". But hey, what could I expect ? America is definitely know all around the world as a not foody country
@@lexcorpone so I take it every French person is 100% perfect in cooking? Nobody over there makes mistakes? Nobody over there deviates from a recipe? French people shouldn’t take themselves so seriously.
I’ve made it the Julia Child way, which takes a while but is worth the wait, and The Barefoot Contessa way, which takes less time and tastes just as good.
I have to say, Julie's husband (while being a good person, and the actor playing the role I assume is a decent human) is the most annoying character I've seen in a movie. He just talks with his mouth full the entire movie. I get they want to show he likes the food, but good god does it get old. At least he doesn't make the smack sound when eating.
+Messylin Julia Child was not a shy, retiring person. she had a very strong personality. and Julie's friend acknowledged that she was a bitch. I think it was intentional.
Because she burned it the first time. She had to do it all over again, but then, the distinguished guest couldn't make it and this is where Eric tasted it and found it bland.
The movie was great, I like they gave hints that both their stories are aim in different times
I liked Amy Adams and Julie’s story. She had a depressing job & fought her way out of it with her book. I love the movie!
It's sorta crazy how much money Julie must have spent just in ingredients. And all that Le Creuset? Wow. That is a pretty significant investment.
I have Julia's cookbooks/memoirs and I've made the boeuf bourguignon and it's incredible

Making this for the first time tomorrow, got the cookbook for Christmas. Wish me luck!
How’d it go?
@@noface3928 deliciously!
I have made beef borguignon, and it was wonderful.
CraftyLittleDevil so did I! I was so inspired by this movie! The food ended up being wonderful and I would definitely make it again
wasn't her first try of this dish a disaster? she overslept the arlam and even missed work the other day...
3auka88 Yes, it was. She called in sick and made another one.
So what? At least she tried.
Honestly, I think this is the sign of a good cook. Fuck it up, learn from the mistake, regroup, try again.
the raspberry cream and boeuf bourguignon looks great.
A beef stew boiled in wine!?🍷 I have GOT to try it! 🤤
Edit: I finally tried it last December. It was delicious!
That look so good
omg same here lol Amy ! ugh thought I was the only one who thought that!
I’ve made it the Julia Child way, which takes a while but is worth the wait, and The Barefoot Contessa way, which takes less time and tastes just as good.
So was the bavarian cream just supposed to be eaten by itself?
I loved this movie.
Chris Messina choking through his dialog kind of grossed me out though.
Mmmmph it’s show gud

I wonder if she really was this hopeless in real life.
Bruh 😂
I find Amy Adams very obnoxious and irritating in this film. They could have found a less smarmy actress for the role IMO.
+Messylin Julia Child was not a shy, retiring person. she had a very strong personality. and Julie's friend acknowledged that she was a bitch. I think it was intentional.
That was the whole point, the real Julie was an uptight bitch apparently
Why do some people always want their protagonists to be likable?
@@musicaltheatergeek79 You can make a character as bitchy as you can but still be likeable. Like Cersei Lannister.
@@musicaltheatergeek79 because it makes a movie bearable.
B
How the hell her husband tasted the stew at the kitchen and he loved it, and then at the table, he adds salt and Julie goes crazy!
Because she burned it the first time. She had to do it all over again, but then, the distinguished guest couldn't make it and this is where Eric tasted it and found it bland.
