When Jacques said he thought they would use the "gnostic skillet" I did a double-take, thinking I was about to see some previously unrevealed but time-honored cooking technique, and then I realized he'd said "no-stick skillet." Death by accents got me again…
Learning to cook rainbow trout fillets with you both is fascinating as well as being an unspeakable joy ! Thank you for teaching us great cuisine. Again - very very sincere thanks. :-)
It’s definitely easier to cook a flat fish like sole or flounder with the bones in than to try and filet it first. Not to mention you get a bit more flavor.
Oh… it actually hurts my heart, listening to Julia breathe… she had COPD from years of smoking 😢 she was an amazing, classy LEGEND though, she taught me so much. Godspeed Julia, I miss you…
When Jacques told Julia that she remembered all of her culinary lessons he was graciously and kindly telling her that he had forgotten more about French cuisine than she would EVER know. I am not one of Julia Child's fans. She was often rude and bossy.
