More quotes by Julia Child
Never apologize for your cooking.
Julia Child
Just speak very loudly and quickly, and state your position with utter conviction, as the French do, and you'll have a marvelous time!
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
The dinner hour is a sacred, happy time when everyone should be together and relaxed.
Julia Child
Romance is the icing but love is the cake.
Julia Child
When the war broke out I decided I would be very patriotic. Standing my full height. I presented myself to the Wacs and the to the Waves. And I was rejected - I was an inch too tall.
Julia Child
We had a happy marriage because we were together all the time. We were friends as well as husband and wife. We just had a good time.
Julia Child
Fake food -- I mean those patented substances chemically flavored and mechanically bulked out to kill the appetite and deceive the gut -- is unnatural, almost immoral, a bane to good eating and good cooking.
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
Fine # wine is a living liquid ... Its life comprises youth, maturity, old age, and death.
Julia Child
If you don't pick your audience, you're lost because you're not really talking to anybody.
Julia Child
We ought to enjoy our food, we ought to take time and care and prepare it correctly, and we ought to have fun doing it and make it a communal event.
Julia Child
Everything can have drama if it's done right. Even a pancake.
Julia Child
Cooking well doesn't mean cooking fancy.
Julia Child
I still feel that French cooking is the most important in the world, one of the few that has rules. If you follow the rules, you can do pretty well.
Julia Child
It's so beautifully arranged on the plate - you know someone's fingers have been all over it.
Julia Child
Noodles are not only amusing but delicious.
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
The American poultry industry had made it possible to grow a fine-looking fryer in record time and sell it at a reasonable price, but no one mentioned that the result usually tasted like the stuffing inside of a teddy bear.
