I clicked on this randomly, now i know how to cut carrots more easily. I love the internet.
This lady is such a joy to watch. Julie child and Martha Stewart are my absolute favorite.
Julia does justice to the artichoke! She’s right – you don’t need to fuss with them too much and you can eat the stems. Just peeling and trimming away the tough outer leaves and sharp leaf tips is enough. And she’s right about the cook time. 30-40 minutes for a large whole artichoke will cook the whole thing through.
Julia never ever ever mentioned a gender who should be cooking is what my dad loved back in the day. He was the cook and mom the baker so they always appreciated she never mentioned”’for the house wife”‘which many cookbooks said back then.
