If you're buying tomatoes pick them up and smell them-they should have a lovely perfume. They need to be kept at fifty degrees or above, particularly during the growing season, because that's when they develop their flavor.

More quotes by Julia Child
My mother was independent. She had grown up in Dalton and Pittsfield, in western Massachusetts, and she was one of the first women drivers in that area.
Julia Child
...nothing is too much trouble if it turns out the way it should.
Julia Child
I'd like for people to be able to go to the universities and get a degree in fine arts-gastronomy.
Julia Child
I think anyone who is a carnivore needs to understand that meat does not originally come in these neat little packages.
Julia Child
Remember, 'No one's more important than people'! In other words, friendship is the most important thing--not career or housework, or one's fatigue--and it needs to be tended and nurtured.
Julia Child
...no one is born a great cook, one learns by doing.
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
One of the secrets, and pleasures, of cooking is to learn to correct something if it goes awry and one of the lessons is to grin and bear it if it cannot be fixed.
Julia Child
People who love to eat are always the best people.
Julia Child
I love to teach - that's my role.
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
A house without a cat is like a day without sunshine, a pie without fromage, a dinner without wine.
Julia Child
If you're in a good profession, it's hard to get bored, because you're never finished - there will always be work you haven't done.
Julia Child
I think every woman should have a blowtorch.
Julia Child
If you are going to flip something, you must have the courage of your convictions.
Julia Child
Everything can have drama if it's done right. Even a pancake.
Julia Child
I think the inner person is the most important.... I would like to see an invention that keeps the mind alert. That's what is important.
Julia Child
How lovely life can be if one takes time to be friendly.
Julia Child
Too much trouble,' 'Too expensive,' or 'Who will know the difference' are death knells for good food. ... Cooking is not a particularly difficult art, and the more you cook and learn about cooking, the more sense it makes.
Julia Child
She was my first cat ever, and I thought she was marvelous.
Julia Child
