“If you poured your hot soup right on to the egg yolks, they would SCREAM in anguish and curdle.” The mental image of eggs screaming in anguish is never something I would have ever conjured on my own, and it delights me. Julia delights me.

Ok so I decided to cook along with Julia on this one and even ordered up a food mill for the purpose. Finding watercress was not easy, but tracked it down at a local luxury produce market. I admit I was a bit hesitant on the whole "enrichment" part at the end so divided the soup into two pots and added the cream/egg/butter enrichment to one and had the family do taste testing. Wowza. The enrichment makes an incredible and incredibly delicious difference! It elevated the soup from tasty to transcendent! And the eggs yolks add a great shot of protein as well : )

My mom exploded a pressure cooker decades ago, I think that's why I've never wanted to use one!

@mikezylstra7514 Ай бұрын

I heard all the horror stories (back in the 50's). I think that was simply "geloso." Pressure cookers saved time - lots of time. My aunt could go to the racetrack come home at 4 o'clock, and still cook a dinner like my mom tended for 3 or 4 hours. And mom never hesitated to tell the pressure cooker stories (the lid flying off, the whole nine yards). LOL

@rah62 Жыл бұрын

Well, since watercress is native to Europe and Asia, it's not a terribly American thing. Julia probably first encountered it in France. Brits tend to put it on their tea sandwiches; I remember an episode of Two Fat Ladies where Clarissa made a tea sandwich of sliced tongue, cress, and mustard butter. (There is a variant called just "cress" or "garden cress" to distinguish it from the version which grows in streams and creeks) Of course, since I live in the desert, there isn't watercress - or water, for that matter - for miles and miles!!!

@jjmboston5832 9 ай бұрын

i've never had a pressure cooker. I just use the old pot on the stove or a crock pot. And the watercress cost me $2.00 a bunch at the farmer's market. Probably even more at the supermarket. Times change.

Thank you for your comment Adrian! I looked up what Harakiri actually meant and I just gasped when I found out XD! That line in the video would've just went over my head as another "chef" term I'm unaware of but your comment made me look it up and appreciate the dark comedy behind it!

@DaveMK. Жыл бұрын

@@calmingme01 Well ages ago in Japan, Harakiri knives were used in ritual suicide where one would slit their abdomen with the knife. Thus when Julia said that the knife could be used for Harakiri or vegetables depending on your mood, she was comedically referencing the medieval purpose of the knife (which was to disembowel yourself during suicide) or use it to cut vegetables depending on how you feel that day i.e. to kill yourself or to cut vegetables. Hahaha

@@calmingme01 “Hara-kiri” is a somewhat blunt way of referring to Japanese ritual suicide, more formally known as “seppuku.” The name for the Japanese vegetable knife Ms. Child is using here, as it happens, is “nakiri.”

Every month I pick one of my cookbooks and use it to source three or four recipes for the month. (The rest of the time I cook The Usuals.) I was wondering what to do for December and then saw this. Mastering..., Volume I is my book for December 2023. I was going to choose "Julia's Kitchen Wisdom," a great little book that has Julia's "greatest hits" recipes, including this soup. (It's cheaper and less scary than Mastering... and makes a great gift for cooking newbies BTW.) Instead, I decided to get out the Mama rather than the Baby version. If you've not had potato-leek soup, it's yummy.

I went through a pressure cooker (Instant Pot) phase. It's not worth the hassle and the special appliance. Factoring in the time you spend waiting for it to come to and come down from pressure, you might as well just cook things the normal way as it doesn't save much time at all.

@@RCook-iy4xk Of course I watched the video, silly. "Speed cooling" is not often recommended because pressure cooking recipes usually factor in the time coming down from pressure in the cooking time. Often, if you "speed cool", you're undercutting the recipe time. So there.
