More quotes by Julia Child
Sooner or later the public will forget you the memory of you will fade. What's important are the individuals you've influenced along the way.
Julia Child
I never feel lonely in the kitchen. Food is very friendly.
Julia Child
the more experience you have, the more interesting cooking is because you know what can happen to the food. In the beginning you can look at a chicken and it doesn't mean much, but once you have done some cooking you can see in that chicken a parade of things you will be able to create.
Julia Child
Wine is a living liquid containing no preservatives. Its life cycle comprises youth, maturity, old age, and death. When not treated with reasonable respect it will sicken and die.
Julia Child
This is my invariable advice to people: Learn how to cook- try new recipes, learn from your mistakes, be fearless, and above all have fun!
Julia Child
Eating is the secret to good cooking.
Julia Child
There are only four great arts: music, painting, sculpture, and ornamental pastry- architecture being perhaps the least banal derivative of the latter.
Julia Child
It's so beautifully arranged on the plate - you know someone's fingers have been all over it.
Julia Child
In spite of food fads, fitness programs, and health concerns, we must never lose sight of a beautifully conceived meal.
Julia Child
As we say in the American Institute of Wine and Food, small helpings, no seconds. A little bit of everything. No snacking. And have a good time.
Julia Child
Food like love is a deeply emotional matter.
Julia Child
Always remember: If you're alone in the kitchen and you drop the lamb, you can always just pick it up. Who's going to know?
Julia Child
A party without cake is really just a meeting.
Julia Child
The problem for cookery-bookery writers like me is to understand the extent of our readers' experience. I hope have solved that riddle in my books by simply telling everything. The experienced cook will know to skip through the verbiage, but the explanations will be there for those who still need them.
Julia Child
Many of the delicious soups you eat in French homes and little restaurants are made just this way, with a leek-and-potato base to which leftover vegetables or sauces and a few fresh items are added.
Julia Child
I’m awfully sorry for people who are taken in by all of today’s dietary mumbo jumbo. They are not getting any enjoyment out of their food.
Julia Child
The secret of a happy marriage is finding the right person. You know they're right if you love to be with them all the time.
Julia Child
I'm afraid that surprise, shock, and regret is the fate of authors when they finally see themselves on the page.
Julia Child
Sometimes ... it takes me an entire day to write a recipe, to communicate it correctly. It's really like writing a little short story.
Julia Child
When I got to France I realized I didn't know very much about food at all. I'd never had a real cake. I'd had those cakes from cake mixes or the ones that have a lot of baking powder in them. A really good French cake doesn't have anything like that in it - it's all egg power.
