    I love how she explains things to a tee...she has a down to earth easy approach to explaining things for the common novice cook! And she doesn't rush through the process.

    To get the meat out of the walkers, break off a segment and use a rolling pin to squeeze out the meat. I saw this on the American Test Kitchen while making lobster rolls. I do the same on the Blue Crab with the crab mallet.

    Lord rest her soul! My mother discovered her in the early to mid '60s, and we laughed at her through the first few episodes, then realized just how fantastic a cook she was, and more importantly, she demystified cooking for all of us. Decades later, her book is and remains a bible in our home - I watched this episode over lunch of Julia's onion soup that I made. I've never done her thermidor. And I wouldn't have thought to use tarragon in the mushrooms or the cream sauce. I'm not a big tomalley or roe fan, and the white stuff is clotted lobster blood, but if Julia says to use it...

    7 lb lobster was probably 100 y/o. Been watching lobster fisherman on TH-cam and I’m impressed just how big and old they can get. As a kid, we went out to a fancy restaurant once or twice a year. My dad always ordered lobster Thermidor and he would alway tell the waiter he wanted lobster Thermidor and not lobster Newburg

    • @martha-anastasia
      @martha-anastasia หลายเดือนก่อน

      I wouldn't believe a TH-camr on that statement, but early settlers of the US wrote of lobsters over 4 feet long.

    Yum❤ I remember these old Julia Child shows on WGBH as a child, my mother was a gourmet cook and often made wonderful recipes out of the NY Times cookbook, Bon Appétit from Arizona

    I don't know how she got through that recipe without snipping one of her fingers off. I know it's Julia Child but I winced every time she used the shears.

    I was four years old going on a Great Big Five Years Old in three months when this episode aired. I was lucky that my mother was a very good cook, but she never made this dish. I didn't think about it again until five years later when it was mentioned in Monty Python's "Spam" sketch. From that point onward, every time I heard the dish mentioned I wanted to add "...and Spam" at the end.

    My poor single mom drove us to New Orleans from Mobile, Al. when I was about 10 and allowed me to order Lobster Thermidor at a fancy restaurant. All I recall was it was a rip off. Very little lobster and a lot of sauce and other stuff. Disappointed to this day ha ha…but it gave inspiration to become a decent cook for myself.

      Her original show started in the early '60s and then her next set of very popular shows started in the early '70s after she'd written her 2nd cookbook - ran for several seasons.

    26 minutes @425 sounds excessive. All the components are already cooked when it goes in the oven. Julia is the queen but recipes have changed since the 60s

    • @paulinemclean375
      @paulinemclean375 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      I thought she’d say maybe 10 minutes since I find lobster or any delicate shell fish get tough and dry if cooked too much.

    • @mitchmai
      @mitchmai 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Seems like a solid time to me. I never oven cooked lobster before I would be horrified if I put in all this work and the stuff came out like rubber@@paulinemclean375
