When I was at cooking school, Julia came to promote this book. I met her and bought this book. She signed it for my mom. Such a lifetime experience.

That is so cool... I had something similar happen to me.. Not about cooking or Julia Child.. but I once was able to see and touch a photograph of the late Karen Carpenter that had been autographed by her in 1974... It was almost like touching the holy grail as a Carpenters fan... To know that that picture had once been held by my all time favourite singer... I got goosebumps in that moment...!

I met Julia at a signing when I was really young, I think I was 5 or 6, but I had already started cooking some of her recipes and loved her show. When I got up to see her I told her my name (I was a little kid, you always introduce with your name!) and her handler instantly came down going "she's not personalizing anything". I think being told what she was and was not doing irritated the hell out of her because she got this shit-eating grin and asked me how to spell it and where I had gotten such an old copy of her book (it was one my great-grandma let me take). It'll always be a memory I cherish!

It’s like in a heist movie where things go wrong, but they figure out a way to still get the diamonds.
One thing I really love about your approach is that you will remake something until you get it right, which I know for some recipes has given you a lot of grief. It is so nice to see you triumph in the end! And I know you’re learning a ton by doing this. Congrats on the new book and the first awesome recipe from it!
In regards to Choux pastry, the best thing to do when you mix the flour on the stove is to dry that mixture a bit. You want the bottom of your pan to have a tiny film of dried dough stuck on it, that's the moment the dough is at the perfect dryness/gelatinousness. Drying that dough before mixing in the eggs means you'll get puffier puffs, the bubbles are gonna be way bigger and thus easier to fill after. Its not gonna affect the taste but its that special something that's gonna take your choux to the next level

I wholeheartedly agree. He always takes it off too early. If the recipe says it will take a minute, it will take a minute. It should be a little thick and appear dry, not still wet. In school my instructor would say it should go from shiny to dull looking. If it was still glistening, it was not mixed enough. He always figures out in the end.

Thank you for the tip and for clearing something up for me. I've never heard of this sort of pastry. The whole time I was confused as to why they would call it "Shoe pastry", which didn't sound appetizing.
One of the things I love about your channel is that you openly and without shame enjoy the food you make. When you try the dish we need no words to be able to tell if you love it or not makes me happy to see
Chocolate has a memory. If you reserve some of the solid morsels and add them (stir them in to melt) AFTER you allow your hot syrup to cool down a few minutes, the morsels will magically help the syrup to thicken up! It is called tempering chocolate, very simple to do. I make home made almond joy bars for my grand kids and this step is a must.
Butter, butter is the secret ingredient in your chocolate sauce. I make a similar, easier version of that sauce and it's the salted butter that creates this full-bodied, slightly salty, velvety, chocolaty goodness. Nice work, Jamie!

Not to mention butter is a great emulsifier! If you mix it in before adding the rest of the liquid, it will make the sauce thicker without the flour

I have that book. It’s come in handy here and there. I’ve only made a few simplier breads and pretty standard pies, but I keep eying those more complicated dishes. I’ll get there! I have ADHD, so time management is a huge concern when I’m making these multi step type recipes-so much to go wrong! The pictures in the book are absolutely delightful though, and the book generally feels more approachable than a lot of her other cookbooks I’ve thumbed through.
Watched Claire Saffitz make a Paris Brest, the same choux paste ring, but filled with praline moussaline. She cut the top ring into portions before placing on top, and filling did not ooze out when slicing.

Yes,Claire Saffitz is my go-to for baking anything I’m not sure about. And,her dinner rolls are the absolute best ever! As are her cinnamon rolls. Erin is still the pie queen,imo.
Having no training whatsoever, except for a little experience as a short order cook at a bowling alley (and the love of cooking at home) I became a part-time cook at a bed-and-breakfast. I turned to two cookbooks and one of them was Julia Child’s. I used her hollandaise sauce recipe and I would also serve her crêpes Suzette for breakfast. And her stuffed mushrooms were the beyond the best I’ve ever had! When the French go simple, they really make it fantastic just like the Italians! So thank you Julia for your support! I ended up making a 15-year career as a bed-and-breakfast Innkeeper.
17:00 i’m so proud of you, not only did you improve the sauce by making a roux, you let it cool before pouring it on. the old jamie would never!!! you really have learnt so much 🥺💕
Jamie I being thoroughly honest, watching you do the cooking from scratch, not giving up, not losing hope and starting again is a huge inspiration to me. Keep up with the good work🥳
Man I’m so glad I came across this channel, it has been a true experience so far. This more ‘honest’ cooking show is as hilarious as it is wholesome
I just joined Patreon because of you! So entertaining. I’m a retired chef and really enjoy your channel. You’ve inspired me to start cooking all the Julia Child recipes again.

I just found your series during the fall of 2022 and it's great. It makes me laugh, you have humility and if at first you don't succeed, you give it a go again until you get it. That's the coolest thing about your approach to cooking.

When I saw that second pastry rise I legit screamed "YEEEES LETS GOOO", Choux is tricky, even if it wasn't perfect, the fact that at the end you enjoyed it makes it perfect. Great work!

Not only are you a good learner and soon to be professional chef, you are also a great director of your videos. This was a thoroughly entertaining video. Thanks for all the effort. You are one of the KZread contributors that I watch to learn how to cook. You rarely disappoint.
You made chocolate gravy. Awesome 💜
my two-cents worth: when making this, or its cousin the Paris-Brest its best to pre-cut the top part of the ring and lay the pieces ontop of the cream bottom, that way when you take a knife to cut portions the knife pressure won't cause all the cream/custard to ooze out.
I love how you never give up until you’ve achieved your goal. You’re better than most of us in that regard.
What is it about Jamie battling through a stressful giant dessert that makes my day less stressful? 😊😂
I totally respect you 1. Leaving your fails in the video 2. Not giving up until you’re happy. 👏 bravo 🫡
I just recently started watching these videos. It's amazing to watch him go from not even knowing what a roux is, to improvising it into a chocolate sauce. The progress is evident!
You have THE WAY TO COOK! Magnifique! This is really the compendium of her experiences over a busy lifetime of learning and cooking, and I honestly think it will serve you better than MASTERING... (which, though a deserved classic, was a first try, and perhaps overly tied to "the way they've always done it"). It's well organized in terms of Master Recipes and their variations. And this was a great one! I'm impressed that you did it all over again, because honestly the first try wasn't bad and I would have been proud of it. And really, when she says "scrape out uncooked pastry," she means exactly that -- if it's all cooked, you can leave it unscraped. But the danger with choux pastry, as you know, is that there'll be actual raw dough inside after baking, and one has to deal with that. You did great. As always.
You had me at the opening, "I'd explain, but what's the point?" LMAO Been there bro, then there. 🤣
The agony of defeat and the thrill of victory all in one video. That chocolate sauce looked like it was so good, it has to be illegal.
OMG!!! A chocolate eclair doughnut. I’m so glad you made it the second time. This is definitely a showstopper.
I love the suspenseful music when Jamie is contemplating the platter.
Regarding microwaves: namecheck: Alison Holst legendary icon of New Zealand home cooking and bakery. She started out demonstrating microwave cooking when it was weird new rocket science 😂 an extraordinary talented and relatable woman, a food influencer in an earlier age. Her recipe books defined several decades of New Zealand domestic cooking. My favourite recipe is a sticky gingerbread loaf - but that’s just because the rest of her recipes I use are so well used I’ve forgotten I got them from Alison 😊
"Thats a warning" made me LOL. I hope you don't runout, I enjoy your videos.
Jamie, I don't know where you get so much patience. I've watched most of your videos and am constantly amazed at the fact that you are so willing to try it again. I used to do a lot of baking in my younger days but never tried my failures over again. One time was enough to totally frustrate me and give up. Congrats to you on being so focused and intense about what you're doing. I thoroughly enjoy watching you, especially the Julia Child episodes.
This is such a professional choux pastry ring. My little guy is all grown up.
Smiles of pleasure, as opposed to smiles of discomfort, disdain, or delirium 🙂 Lol but nah for reals, great work dude!! I’m super addicted to this channel right now! Also holy crap the struggle with the book holder was frkn hilarious 😂 😂😂

I remembered to buy cream cheese but completely forgot the bagels….and now your cream puff, is making me crave a bagel with cream cheese 😂 That creampuff wheel/tire/donut thing looks so SO GOOD! You could even make that as a Christmas/winter dessert, drizzling green white chocolate and decorating with some red icing, raspberries, candy, etc. for berries to make it look like a wreath. Great job, as usual! I love your perseverance, Jaime! Happy New Year 🥳

One of my favorite books of hers! Much easier to understand and there are Pictures! 😊 Yes! My favorite part is that you will redo a recipe if it doesn't work the first. Chef's do this constantly. This is how we develop and create our own recipes. Make it over and over again until we are 😊 And happy is great isn't it Jamie when you can accomplish a recipe very well. Great job Chef Jamie!

I don't think I've ever seen something so beautiful as the chocolate sauce going on the cream puff.
Love to watch you! That looked awesome!

I binge watch your videos everyday because KZread has it in my feed, and because I love your content, then your videos are no longer being recommended when I realize I haven’t seen any of stuff in a week.
You made a giant chocolate eclair. I'd eat the whole thing in one sitting.
Growing up Danish around many well-seasoned bakers who could make Cream Puffs blindfolded, I'd suggest the next time you make the pastry, to add your eggs and really mix them in well. It develops the gluten in the flour slightly and allows for the pastry to have a stiffer texture before you bake them and lets them rise more consistently and evenly in the oven. It almost looks like your oven is too hot. The finished pastry should be a lot lighter in color and somewhat thicker.
Always improving!
🤣🤣 Thank you! Go into second hand stores to find large round platters and other dishes from our parents cupboards... I look forward to the end of the second go around. Don't scrap out the centre!! Wrong center! Right center!
Really great episode! Your tenacity, humor and ever-evolving experience in the kitchen make this a wonderful show. Well done. Now I have to go make one because it looks incredibly yummy. :)
