So far I\u2019ve seen countless hours of her slapping dough around to make croissants and French bread, demonstrating brutally tedious sauce-making techniques and offering 1960\u2019s style video of her own shopping tours around Paris and the south of France. Nevertheless, I\u2019m addicted to learning from this woman.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, for the first time I\u2019ve made homemade <span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>French Onion Soup<\/strong><\/span>, following Julia\u2019s recipe verbatim. It turned out perfectly. I&#8217;ve also &#8220;warmed up&#8221; to the idea of eating enormous amounts of onions and <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3tt9LJh\">butter<\/a> and cheese in this hearty dish. And we can all also warm up to the idea of learning a little something from Julia. She was a practical woman and a wildly demonstrative teacher who made it easy for us to understand and learn from- something all teachers should be, in my opinion.<\/p>\n<p>One thing I\u2019ve learned from reading other books and blogs about French culture, cooking techniques, style and form is that the French, particularly Parisians, really love to warm themselves up with a hot bowl of soup during the chilly winter months. Check out <a href=\"http:\/\/www.davidlebovitz.com\/archives\/2008\/12\/celery_root_soup.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">David Lebovitz\u2019s blog about living in Paris and his article about celery root soup<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2547\/3899660272_40b94efd49_o.jpg\" alt=\"Celery\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\"><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a quicker version of <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.foodnetwork.com\/recipes\/emeril-lagasse\/french-onion-soup-recipe\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">French Onion Soup<\/a><\/strong> than in Julia Child\u2019s book I used (<em>Mastering the Art of French Cooking, Fortieth Edition, Vol. 1 by Julia Child, Louisette Bertholle and Simone Beck, p. 43-45<\/em>). It\u2019s Emerille Lagasse\u2019s recipe found on the Food Network website:<\/p>\n<p>Substitute \u00bd cup red <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3bVMkT5\">grape juice<\/a> for the sherry and remember to use only your own homemade <a href=\"https:\/\/billydoemeats.com\/?sca_ref=612140.OUBMoNQMp3\">chicken<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/billydoemeats.com\/?sca_ref=612140.OUBMoNQMp3\">veal<\/a> stock, made from dhabiha halal animals. If you don\u2019t have that, use a halal canned or carton broth (let me know if you see that in any stores), or a can or carton of kosher stock or broth.<\/p>\n<p>You can also use beef stock instead of <a href=\"https:\/\/billydoemeats.com\/?sca_ref=612140.OUBMoNQMp3\">chicken <\/a>or <a href=\"https:\/\/billydoemeats.com\/?sca_ref=612140.OUBMoNQMp3\">veal <\/a>stock but the taste will be a bit more \u201cmeaty\u201d. And you can also just use one type of stock (i.e. only <a href=\"https:\/\/billydoemeats.com\/?sca_ref=612140.OUBMoNQMp3\">chicken<\/a> as opposed to the combination), just make sure the stock is dark. Don\u2019t make this dish if you will only be able to use water- it just isn\u2019t worth sacrifice in taste.<\/p>\n<p>Let me know how your soup turns out\u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Bismillah and Bon Appetit!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What Julia Child taught me this winter&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13871,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1579],"tags":[420,478,517,3103,528,717,884,1123],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 -
