I remember when this exact video first aired, I fell MADLY in love with this veal recipe and have made it many times ever since - it is a TOTAL party/crowd pleaser!
I'm a meat eater, but I just can't get over the idea it's a baby animal. Veal production used to be notoriously cruel in its methods, to ensure the whitest meat. I suspect that's why in England at least, it's rarely cooked at home and more typically seen on exclusive restaurant menus.
Absolutely love Leslee Reis an accomplished business owner, Chef and stylish individual. I had the pleasure to work for her. What a treat to see her again. Thank you for uploading a fond memory. ❤
@@glamdolly30 Hi, Sadly she has passed. Julia had interns on her TVshows and Leslee was in her kitchen when going to school in Boston. This is how they met initial.
Interesting seeing how carefree things were back then - no need for latex or nitrile gloves! I suppose we can thank the AIDS epidemic which brought about "standard precautions" like basic antisepsis (spoken as an older RN.)
There is absolutely nothing to thank about the AIDS epidemic, except no thanks to the Reagan administration for ignoring it and blaming people for having sex.
There was never a need for them. Washing hands frequently is the best antisepsis. Gloves are hygiene theater,worn in fast-food places to satisfy the government on "health inspections". And then there are masks....
Wasn't it amazing to see those ladies rolling the chocolate with bare hands, not an ugly rubber glove or hairnet in sight. The good old days of food production!
May Russ forever rest in peace. From Julia Child, to This Old House and The New Yankee Workshop Russ broke the mold on PBS.
Lucy and Ethel at the chocolate factory! Ok…Victoria and Ethel! Yum!!
And not an ugly rubber glove or hairnet in sight - the good old days of food production!

I just love this series.
What a gem this is. Nice to see PBS putting these stuff out for free

Such a delicious variation on oysters Rockefeller ❤
I really liked the way she came over on TV. like Julia she was a natural. Is the lovely lady still with us?

Awesome. Julia.
People should get back to hosting formal dinner parties again.
I have tried. Really I have. Very few appreciate it and it is such a labor of love! I’ll spare you the details.🙄
Now that’s class, pizazz.
How do truffle preparers wash one’s hands, exactly? It almost seems sacrilegious to see all that goodness go down a utility sink.
Trust me, working with chocolate you get sick of it after a while.
Have to love inflation. Getting milk fed veal at $7 on these days is a bargain.
You'd be lucky to find a single, decent steak for that price today!
1:56 that was a mannish ok

This is the old school technique. It is considered wasteful. Sadly no one does this anymore.
