@@shaddonon actually, California. Her father was in real estate, I think. They purchased their fancy car in Europe from Julia's trust, which also paid the bills when they were short. They brought their car back on the ship they returned to the US on. What a life.

So the Polaroid Corporations sponsorship was useless then?

Posh city folk, lol.

@@jody024you think it is easy to make French baguette I’m a chef and pastry chef it took me 1 year just to prefect a French bread it’s hard than you think

Hehehe Yup, it's actually rare for a French person to make bread at home, even back then. They relied on the local bakery.

Preach! 👍😎

Sure there lots of them in Paris…..but not here in the USA.

😂i died when I heard her say THAT!!🙋🏼‍♀️ 😂☠️

Her blue shirt! Bob shares it..

@@priyadarshanigalhena1164 OMG you’re right! 😂 That’s funny

@@priyadarshanigalhena1164 Gotta love them both 😊 they gave so much joy to people with their passions 🤍

@@BruteForce. since it's summer, if you can get your hands on homegrown tomatoes, OMG, this is delicious. The pain is waiting for the tomatoes to be ripe and juicy. This is what I have made for the last 30 years with the first tomato of the season, slice the tomato thinly, add extra virgin olive oil .. oh, duh, cut your french bread into about 3/4ths inch slices or .5, because the bread is the vessel, coat the bread with the EVOO, not a lot. I put my thumb on the bottle top and drizzle, or if you have an oil bottle, then take a garlic glove and kind of smash the end and rub the bread. If you don't have a garlic glove, just use garlic powder, or you can eliminate the garlic ... now, your choice, I make several varieties ... then add cheese of your choice ... we use fresh mozzarella and parmesean if I have it .. not out of the can ... also Swiss because it's my favorite ... then thinly sliced tomato, ... now, again your choice, you can put the tomato and any herb of your choice, you can use dried, first, then the cheese, but i prefer tomato on top of cheese ... put it under the broiler .. leave the oven door cracked and watch it like a hawk, when cheese is melted, remove immediately... it's literally a second between perfect and burnt ... garnish with fresh torn fresh basil or parsley, or just plain ... after the first bite I always say, kings do not eat better than this. Then later I make a grilled tomato and Swiss cheese grilled sandwich, with a glass of fresh brewed iced tea with lemon and say the same thing. But honestly, please give it a try, especially if you bake your own bread .. I'm going to give it a try ... I've tried several breads over the years, especially thinking Italian or a French country bread or sour dough would work well. While it was still good, the baguette works best with the crunchy exterior and the soft middle ... Heaven. I live in Richmond, Virginia and we have had awful weather since May, highs in the upper 90s and 100s almost daily. The poor tomatoes are literally cooking on the vine. I replanted in early July hoping to get some by September. Sorry for the long response, but please give this a try. It's absolutely delicious. Simple delicious food, which should be enjoyed with relish, was what Julia was all about. Somewhere there's a video where she was saying she used to really like mcdonalds French fries, but the mothers complained about the oil, so they changed and now they're not as good. Totally agree. Cheers, Patricia

where did you order your french flour?

You give me hope yet😊😊😊🤣

I love her chuckle/ giggle. She had a fun sense of humor😍I really hoping she has a trash can beside her, otherwise she’s throwing stuff on the floor😅

De bello gallico, not del.

@@danielandersson5750 You're right!

No not hammered, just enthusiastic, not too tainted by the showiness of modern television and unscripted! So fresh!!!

Hi! Google; Julia Childs recipe for french bread. Of those listed, I would go with Taste of Home. ❤ 🥖🤗

Julia Child’s Plain French Bread Ingredients: 3 and a half cups of flour 1 and a half cups of water A pack of dry yeast (instant will do) 2 and a half teaspoons of salt 1 tablespoon of water Cooking Instructions: Get your mixer, and pour in warm water. Dry it. Pour in the flour and salt. Start your mixer in medium speed. You might need to scrape the mixture from the sides, to keep everything in the center. Make sure you have your spatula beside you. In a separate bowl, get your 1 and a half cups of water, and pour in your yeast. Mix it well, until the yeast is fully activated. Pour in the yeast mixture into the mixer. After adding the yeast, the dough should already be forming a ball, and none of the mixture is sticking on the sides of the mixing bowl. Start adding your flour gradually. Do it in small portions. Take out the dough from the mixer, and allow it to rest for a couple of minutes. Start kneading your dough. You can do this by hand, but I prefer to use a mixer for convenience. If you are going to use a mixer, make sure that your hook is clean and dry again, before using. Check the consistency of your dough. I do this by pressing my finger on the dough. If the dough springs back, then this tells me that I do not need to knead anymore. Get a bowl and pour in warm water again. Dry it, and make sure to grease it with butter or oil, to prevent the dough from sticking. I use Pam, by the way. Place your kneaded dough inside the bowl, and cover it with a cling wrap. Let it rest for at least 2 to three hours. Get your dough and make a square form. Fold one end to the other, until it forms a triangle. Do this step several times on every side. Turn your dough into a circular form, and slightly flatten it. Put the dough inside a bowl again, and cover with cling wrap. Let it sit there for about an hour, or until it already tripled its size. Get a parchment paper and a flat wooden tray. Place your dough on top of the tray with parchment, and cover the dough with a bowl, and let it rise again. It should triple the size once more. Preheat oven at 450 degrees for 30 minutes. Place a pan with water and a baking stone in the oven Make a few deep slits on top of your dough, and brush it with water Place your dough on top of the parchment paper, and place it on top of the baking stone inside the preheated oven. Start baking. Refill the warm water in your pan after six minutes, and make sure to brush your dough with water at least every 3 minutes (do this 3X - 3rd min, 6th, and 9th). After 6 minutes of baking, remove the parchment, and allow the bread to bake on top of the baking stone directly. Bake for at least 25 minutes, or until you see a golden brown color on top.

@@behringerm Sorry to correct, but the ingredients and measurements are: one packet of active dry yeast dissolved (per the package), 3-1/2 cups ap flour, 2-1/4 tsp salt, 1-1/4 cup tepid water. Best to watch and take notes, Veronica. Behringerm's measurements are incorrect.

​​@@janeydoe1403 How very confusing 😅 3 +½ cups of flour. Not 3 half cups. 1+¼ cups of tepid water. Not one 1/4 cup... 😂

@@charliesmith_ yes. x

What do you mean she can't really cook? I guess you don't know much about her.....and clearly you don't know anything about cooking..
