More quotes by Julia Child
Romance is the icing but love is the cake.
Julia Child
In the 1970s we got nouvelle cuisine, in which a lot of the old rules were kicked over. And then we had cuisine minceur, which people mixed up with nouvelle cuisine but was actually fancy diet cooking.
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
Until I discovered cooking, I was never really interested in anything.
Julia Child
Cooking is one failure after another, and that's how you finally learn.
Julia Child
It's so beautifully arranged on the plate - you know someone's fingers have been all over it.
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.
Julia Child
I love good, fresh food cooked by someone who knows what he's doing.
Julia Child
Forget the cheap white wine: go to beef and gin!
Julia Child
The egg can be your best friend if you just give it the right break
Julia Child
One of the important requirements for learning how to cook is that you also learn how to eat.
Julia Child
...nothing is too much trouble if it turns out the way it should.
Julia Child
Fine # wine is a living liquid ... Its life comprises youth, maturity, old age, and death.
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
Fat gives things flavor.
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
It is the Americans who have managed to crown minced beef as hamburger, and to send it round the world so that even the fussy French have taken to le boeuf hache, le hambourgaire.
Julia Child
...the waiters carried themselves with a quiet joy, as if their entire mission in life was to make their customers feel comfortable and well tended.
Julia Child
If you are going to flip something, you must have the courage of your convictions.
Julia Child
You learn to cook so that you don't have to be a slave to recipes. You get what's in season and you know what to do with it.
