      Of course she rehearsed relentlessly … what professional wouldn’t? I enjoy these videos SO much because so many mistakes were allowed to happen. I love how she corrects herself when she knows she’s messed up …. Or how she clears her throat when she’s nervous or unsure. I worked for over 30 yrs in live and pre recorded television, and at least 15 yrs working on such cooking shows where we did take after take for the most stupid of infractions. These shows, while very humorous in many aspects, are absolute classics that were not only wonderful lessons in cookery, but history making lessons in television production. Bravo Julia and all her tv crew … I know what it must have taken to get these award winning shows to air. Not to mention there are only two cameras here, both locked off until the very end, which is why she very often looks like she’s not looking into the right camera, or many important processes are missed because the cameras can’t see it. She was BRILLIANT for her time when such shows were truly in their infancy.

    I remember watching a lot of these when they were first run on our PBS television station; I watched them at my Grandmother's house, because she had a television that could receive UHF.
    Watching them again and again, gives me ever-renewed appreciation for how these shows were produced, and how much Julia Child was a stickler for details, and trying to get things absolutely correct the first time in this videotape process. These shows, as she recounted in several of her writings, were taped in one take only. That included every hiccough, burp, stumble, failed flipping of potatoes, along with every successful and completed dish. One take. No editing. No "cut", no "let's do a retake on that last scene"; none of it. Julia Child was the consummate professional and she blazed the trail in creating the "cooking show" genre. I miss her.

I was a RUclipsr before they had such a thing. I'd describe to myself how to open the cereal box and pour the milk on it, with lavish descriptions.

    I miss you Chef, Child.
    Great French recipes and techniques. You have to learn the techniques,
    She is very informative with no bullshit approach to cooking. Check out her documentary. Every foodie, cook, chef should memorize 3 recipes from her painstaking compilation book," Mastering the Art of French Cooking". RIP, my Chef.

      A French omelette is supposed to be raw in the middle. It’s kind of a cross between what we think of as an omelette and scrambled eggs.

    Just tried to make a French Omelette. I was a bit worried the eggs wouldn't have cooked enough but it was great! . so much better than my previous rubbery omelettes I've been making for years!

    French omelets are the best. I learned from a French chef in LA. I use a silicone spatula and ceramic pan these days. My filling of choice put in like she did the ham, but I use boursin cheese from Trader Joe’s. So creamy and perfect herb combo in the cheese to make the eggs taste amazing. No salt needed.

    Wow this meal is so me….I first learned how to make French omelettes from Jacques Pepin, but how awesome is this that you can make these omelets ahead and serve them all hot together? The whole spread is very sophisticated and clean. Sure to impress. PS I’ve made French omelets for my family no they are aghast at how wonderful they are. You really need to try it if you haven’t.

    If you really think about it; this episode was one big take. There were cuts for different camera angles, but the audio never cut out or changed.
    She really did all of that cooking and performing in one fell swoop. It really is a performance art she’s doing.

      Yes. I get turned off of many modern chefs and their "dude" attitude. She was a groundbreaker who changed the cullinary trajectory of Americans, at least a little bit. She was a priceless gem.
