This woman knew what she was talking about.
"A pot-saver is a self-hampering cook. Use all the pans, bowls, and equipment you need, but soak them in water as soon as you are through with them. Clean up after yourself frequently to avoid confusion.
"Train yourself to use your hands and fingers; they are wonderful instruments. Train yourself also to handle hot foods; this will save time. Keep your knives sharp.
"Above all, have a good time."
Julia Child (1912-2004)
Forget the foodie celebs of the Food Network. Julia Child changed the way Americans eat and even though she died four years ago, her influence is being felt still. Read her books, watch her programs, and learn from the woman who taught us to enjoy good food simply because it's good and makes our lives better.
