Julia comes across as very approachable and "normal". She's a professionally trained chef, yet, there's no fancy words, no pretense - just talking to us like we're literally in the kitchen with her!
At 62, I'm finally learning to cook. My mother was a very Victorian style cook and boiled the color out of everything! When she brought a steamer, we children were amazed! We had no idea that cooked vegetables could actually have texture! I'm so thankful for this channel, and only wish, for my children's sake you were around sooner😢
Truly appreciate the seasoning, dry aging, and oven roasting advice on the chicken. Even if you are not having a picnic it's a great recipe to make for dinner and eat leftovers the next day at work. Love having a great teacher, which is so rare on youtube.
I like this episode. I learned a lot from it. I will be using ingredients from the farmer's market this week, making tuna salad sandwiches, and ramen with assorted vegetables, as well. Always nice to see your smiling face on a Sunday morning.
Julia, what a delightful meal! I could almost smell the lemon juice and basil as you chopped. That chicken looks fantastic! I’m trying all of these recipes whether it’s Summer or not!😆 Love to watch you cook!
Pro tip: be sure to pin the skin back on the breasts. You can get away without doing it on the drumsticks and the thighs.. but honestly it's best if you do it on every piece.
Julia, thank you for sharing all your tips on pulling back all the skin on drumsticks, thighs, and breasts and pulling the skin back is important so the chicken gets the flavor of the fat from the skin and the chicken doesn’t dry out as easily. Glad you mentioned the toothpicks to hold the skin of the breasts, that white meat dries out so easily. Love the way all of you from the Test Kitchen teach. I am a huge fan and own your huge cookbook with all the seasons recipes. I still have to watch your videos. Thanks again Julia, you are the best! ❤
One of the biggest reasons I enjoy these recipes is that I HAVE these ingredients! Well, maybe not Pims, but generally, everything else. Or at least easy access to them. ❤❤❤
Love watching your cooking vids - interesting, relaxing, and I always learn something. (You can easily "re-number" the Pyrex - super-clean where you'll be redoing the numbers then draw/stencil them in with a good red nail polish, let dry a couple days, then cover with clear...dry days...another protective coating of clear, dry forever, done)
So yummy delicious and mouth watering recipes very testy and yummy recipes thankx for sharing such an amazing and tempting recipes stay connected and keep growing all the👍💯
Really great recipes, this year I will definitely arrange a picknick.❤️ Cold chicken really needs a good recipe, sometimes it's so nasty. Also great that you are mentioning that chili powder is a spice mix where you are, here it is plain chilies. Big difference. 🥵😄 But be careful with arugula If you have eaters that don't chew well, those long leaves, even the baby version, can get stuck in half in your throat and won't move. When in doubt rather cut it smaller or hack it into the dressing. ❤️❤️❤️
Julia, bravo...excellent job! I'm curious about your knife. It appears to be a custom made Bunka. Love the blue composite handle. Can you share with us who the maker is? 😎
I prep for summer by re-reviewing all the great tips from this youtube video! Thanks for sharing this with us, Julia. Except for the Pipps' Drink! Yuck! Much better to do a pitcher of mojitos, IMO! Happy Summer, Julia!
I've been using a great device as a timer a lot lately.... "Hey Google (or Alexa)...set a timer for 7 minutes." Done. It'll run as many timers as you want, too
Here in California, the ones labeled just "cucumbers" tend to be shorter and wider than the one in this video, which is usually labeled an "English cucumber" in our stores. The "American" one has a smoother (bumps but not so many ridges) and slightly thicker skin, which people sometimes peel or score just so it's less substantial. In terms of flavor they're not super different. While the American one leans more toward a melon-like flavor than the English variety, the English has a slight zucchini (oh, courgette) essence to it. But they both, of course, taste mostly like... cucumbers. There are also Persian cucumbers, which are... well, they're small. I don't know if they're a different variety from the other two or if they're just small.

I kept screaming “pine nuts” as you chopped away. 😅😂🤣
Me too. 🤣🤣
There's always some really relatable element in Julia's videos. That was definitely the moment in this one, wasn't it?
Me too and when she went on to lemon before checking them, I almost barfed.
There should be a kitchen timer shaped like a squirrel shouting, "Pine nuts!" 😄❤️

What beautiful glasses and pitcher set. And what a treasure to have from your grandma.
This is magic Julia such a lovely combination for dinner & I love your recipes too!
You are so entertaining! and trully a great teacher. Thanks for sharing all the sophisticated lessons and secrets. Priceless.
Wow, Julia your recepie looks absolutely delicious with a glass of Portuguese wine. From Mississauga Ontario Canada.
Never heard of a Pimm's cocktail before, It really looks refreshing and I love the use of old glassware to make the drink more special!
I like this episode. I learned a lot from it. I will be using ingredients from the farmer's market this week, making tuna salad sandwiches, and ramen with assorted vegetables, as well. Always nice to see your smiling face on a Sunday morning.
So great you kept your grandmother's pyrex and glasses. I can't part with my mom's kitchen gadgets. Thanks for all the teaching in your videos.
I loved the "pine nuts"! That chicken looks incredible! Oh my goodness!!!
My favorite quote….”I put kale on the platter, might as well use a clean bowl for the salad.” 😂😂😂 I’m dying. You’re my kind of people, Julia.
Love the salad and chicken. The toothpick idea is great. As far as the Pimm... I'll just crack open a can of beer.
I could watch you all day long! Always a pleasure to see what you are making.

Everything looks delicious especially the Pimm’s Cup. My favorite way to drink Pimm’s is with a gin and ginger beer!
The pitcher and glasses are perfect for Pimm's cup. I bet wedge wood eBay sales go up! 😂

The chicken and the salad look like definite additions to my recipe box! Thanks.
Love, love Julia! And I must mention, her skin is beautiful!
One of the biggest reasons I enjoy these recipes is that I HAVE these ingredients! Well, maybe not Pims, but generally, everything else. Or at least easy access to them. ❤❤❤
Dang! Love the two lids trick! Thanks for sharing :)
Yum! I don’t know which is going to hit the table first.
Love the cherry tomato hack!!!
This makes me want to do up my hair in a heart polka-dot scarf and take a picnic 💕🍗🥗💕
Thank you 😊

That chicken looked juicy, I will definitely try this recipe.
You’re amazing, Julia, this all looks delectable.
Love the way you help out the chicken skin with toothpicks.
The skin is the best part!!
Even though it Autumn, This still looks so yumm! When we get our "Indian Summer" in October I'll be ready with these great recipes! Thank you Julia!
One of the bauties of this is most of the prep can be done a day ahead of time, and the salad a few hours before dinner. Great Recipe!
Loved this video, Julia! You make it so easy to watch and follow along with. Another great meal. Thanks for sharing!
I love her. She's a bit tipsy and you can tell.

Yummy
Is that a guitar spatula you are using to toss the tortelinni??
Now I know what a Pimm"s cup is, thanks.
Julia, you’re the best. I’m trying to buy the olive oil that you have there that you recommend and it won’t let me open. What is it thank you.
Delicious, thank you very much 🌷🌼🌻🌸🌺🌷
I have resolved that the best way to toast pine nuts is over medium-high heat and stick with it, stirring constantly
I liked the meatballs recipe, what kind of pasta did you use, I like fettuccine myself. Hmmm
Yuuuummmy 😋
I've been using a great device as a timer a lot lately....
"Hey Google (or Alexa)...set a timer for 7 minutes."
Done. It'll run as many timers as you want, too
Pine Nuts!!!!!!!!!!
I think you need some music in the background. I love the editing in ATK videos btw.
So easy to follow along!
Genuinely interested. Here in the UK we just have cucumbers. ( well apart from heirloom or heritage) what other types do have in the US?

@@tom_something we'll thank you for that explanation. It's been bugging me for a while now, Ta.
@@tom_something Btw. If interested check out 'sorted food' latest video. A UK based channel.
@@sih1095 I like Sorted's gadget reviews. Always funny. I'll check out their latest.
@@tom_something it's got cucumbers 🥒!
Can I make this with 10 1/2 inches of snow on the ground and think summer ?
U r hilarious 😂❤️
Is there another green you can use in the salad besides arugula?
you are the best girl...Smoresssss please...x
Boy you have big chickens in the US.
@@sandrah7512 cripes, that would be turkey size here..
Help please!
I’m looking for info on the pink juicer. I’ve now seen it in 2 videos but no link to a purchase of a similar one…
@@sandrah7512 - Thanks. I’ll go looking for the info.-must be in the comments.
Does anyone know who designed her citrus juicer?
As Sandra said, it's by Dash, and costs $20.
Slow down and enjoy the process
I'd like to see if you can come up with a simple and easy recipe for split pea soup with bacon. Would that be possible?
❤
I've been shouting at the computer, trying to warn you about 20:22 since like the 18-minute mark! LMAOOOO
PINE NUTS!
