I love how she always made everything so grand and elegant.

Julia always had a love for Mediterranean cooking. Many of her French Chef episodes cover recipies from the South of France, Spain and even Italy.

"and the little Spanish woman would go WHAM". Cracked me up.

I love paella, I usually add ham and diced pork loin, boneless chicken thighs, chorizo, shrimp, squid, mussels, littleneck clams, onion, roasted red pepper, garlic, tomatoes, peas and/or green beans, calaspara rice, saffron, paprika, chicken broth, olive oil, S&P and fresh chopped parsley.

The sausage she found, Chourico or Chouriço, is the Portuguese version of chorizo. It make sense for that time, because I remember Anthony Bourdain talking about the large Portuguese population in New England when he first got into cooking.

I had mussels at a restaurant in Fairhaven MA a few years back, and my foodie friend and I were fascinated by the sauce. We spent a while trying to figure out what might be in it, and when we asked our server, she was said, "Oh, it's Goya Sazon. We're like, all Portuguese around here."

Since this is paella from the perspective of French cuisine by an American chef with her own idiosyncratic dialect, I think the pronunciation is FINE. You say "paella", I say "paëlla", Julia says... PAELLIA.

Ah, the days of asbestos cooking pads... just give them a good shake to clean them and don't mind the dust that is released.

Sure miss asbestos, and the other good stuff !

The best rice is Spanish rice-bomba-or Italian risotto rice. If not, medium grain Calrose type.

LOVELY videos... Congrats from Brazil!

Julia Child ❤❤❤

Made many. Nothing like the aroma of a paella!

Looks delicious no matter how it's pronounced.

hehehehehe, "Saaaaaaaawwww TaaaaAAAAAYYYY !!!!" ... .. . 😀 Julia Child actually TAUGHT me how to Saute hope she would be happy 🙂

✨Paellia✨

I never knew Julia Child couldn’t pronounce paella 🥘 🤣😂

I'm so glad she pronounces it correctly.

She did not pronounce it correctly according to the Spanish pronunciation. The double "ll" is pronounced as "y"--according to several written guidelines AND vocal recordings. That was the pronunciation I was taught in Spanish IV in high school, and Spanish literature in college.

She is mispronouncing it

Chourico is Portuguese

Paella with mesothelioma

I've never heard it pronounced "pa-e-li-ya" before. Is that a regional pronunciation or just the way Julia pronounced it?

It's a common way to say it in American English.

Where is the French chef????

she did a lot of hogwashes, but since she said "...out of anything that strikes my fancy" and she named it paeja (she pronounces it this way and it's correct because double ll is kind of english j sound in jump, e.g.) a l'american I wouldn't complain at all. Only I'm not sure it tasted good... enough For those who want to taste a really good one, and dare to follow every detail, here this guy makes a really good one: kzread.info/dash/bejne/f3Whpsl9d6-XiKw.html

@rah62 @mikehill3728 All y’all complaining about this absolute treasure of a woman need to get over yourselves. Seriously. Take it for all its wonderfully dated charm or just move on. No need to virtue signal.

I’m a big fan but I enjoy people pointing out the contrasts between then & now 😊

I think she’s pronouncing it correctly. She would know. ❤❤

Glad to see a new episode uploaded but her pronunciation of paella is off the mark

One thing about traditional recipes loaded with carbs is that people eating them were active all day, not sitting in front of a computer screen. They burned off a lot of calories by being so active. Traditionally, a portion of pasta was the size of a woman's fist, not the size of a man's head. Same with rice based dishes.

Love the casual racism and mispronunciations lol

Was a little unnerved by the constant references to the "little Spanish housewife" cooking primitively, like it's 1866 instead of 1966.

Julia Child was 6'-2" tall (and the shortest in her family). She could call any housewife - and most other humans - little if she wanted to.

Under Francisco Franco, who's to say it wasn't primitive. Just a few decades earlier there was widespread famine. The Spanish lady I used to study with blamed him.

I make my paella with big marshmallows and Honey Comb cereal. and flaked coconut. jk.

why did she have to ruin it with alcohol with is not part of the recipe and an insult to the spanish people ruining the recipe
