She's great and funny and adorable, isn't she ? We're lucky.

I remember when these shows came out in the 60's and my mom was determined to be 'gourmet'! Oh she slaved over the stove trying to create the latest jello mold sensation and she hung on every word Julia said. Dad wanted meatloaf and mashed potatoes and I wanted sketti but we got creations we couldn't pronounce and we ate enough jello to sink a battleship LOL! Whoever came up with canned pears with mayonnaise served on a lettuce leaf should have been sent to an uninhabited island and left alone! I particularly remember moms first Quiche, which we ended up calling a 'Quickie', and between the eggs and cheese I'm sure our cholesterol levels soared... oh well, we ate it and mom was happy and we all survived :) In fact, we're all still alive today, mom is 91, pop is 93, and I'm 64!

You totally were tho. We went to Narsai’s in Kensington (by Berkeley) in the early 80s. When our bfs got a xmas bonus, or a tax refund, they would take us out for a ridiculous fancy meal. Omg we were treated like royalty, dressed to the 9s, but low key. They gave us wine, we were in heaven. I wish I could remember the meal, but the whole experience was amazing. I think that was 11th grade…

I’ve never cooked duck before, so I figured I should consult the expert. She makes it simple and easy to follow.

This is absolutely captivating, I wanted to save it and watch the whole thing later but I couldn't click away, I ended up watching the whole thing.

@@carlosyamara interesting. I'm not sure if you know of the channel Townsends here on KZread but they do 18th century cooking, and in many of the recipes roasting meat over a fire, it calls to skewer the meat and then baste it in it's own fat or drippings. Which was always interesting to me because you're removing the fat just to add it back to the outside. Funny to see how cooking has evolved

Julia always make me smile!

I made this yesterday for a group of friends and it turned out wonderful! Went a little off script on the sauce but it was still quite delicious 😋

Nana found a recipe for Duck in Apricot sauce in some woman's magazine. The first time she made it, she was not prepared for all the fat that would render. And you guessed it, she threw that away. Aftwards, she made it with chicken and it was a big favorite. I only know it has apricot brandy in it. Sadly, the recipe died with her.

I am always looking for a way to make something for a crowd! I hope this recipe will impress!

Safeway and other large chain grocery stores always have goose and duck in the frozen section, especially during the holidays. Or just ask at the meat counter to order you one, but they are expensive. A frozen goose costs about $75, but after the holidays they are often marked down.

“Discard the fat because there is nothing you can do with duck fat.” Wtf Julia?

I'm shocked she didn't wash her hands after trussing the duck. Then she touched her cooked duck and all the fixings. Wonder if anybody got sick.

Wait what? You can’t use duck fat for anything??? She learned later.

Didn't even show how to catch and clean the duck before cooking. I prefer my duck in a crock pot or deep fried in lard.

Well, to be fair, salmonella was never the scare it would become when mass production of highly processed meats became the norm. With how animals are raised now it's genuinely quite rare for chickens to have salmonella contamination. The problem is that one contaminated chicken can find its way into a ton of finished product when it's processed. Even then it's a rarity, and when it's discovered the product gets recalled. Would I be worried about a single farm raised duck? Personally, no. To each their own though.
