Truly another era with Julia Child, however I do not recall seeing an abundance of fat French women last time I was in Europe.. I would mention that Graham Kerr, the illustriously flamboyant television host of the 60’s and...

I learned to cook before VCRs, much less Youtube and other online videos. Cookbooks didn’t necessarily teach technique, but there were Julia Child and other PBS cooking show pioneers plus Graham Kerr on commercial TV. Those...

Right. I had forgotten the Donvier. Mine was an old sieve called “perfection” or something. Round plastic cone with plastic mesh. They had to be handled carefully but didn’t cost much. After an initial offering,...

I grew up watching Julia Child and Graham Kerr and then Jeff Smith. The cooking show that affected me most was “Great Chefs” series on the Discovery channel. Lidia Bastianich is my current favorite, but ATK is also...

Watching Graham Kerr savor his food at the end of each show turned me into an aspiring “chef” (at about the age of 8).

Regarding Arrowroot: Graham Kerr was always big on using it as a thickener. Always mix it with COLD liquid before adding to a hot liquid. It has the advantage of setting up fairly quickly and at lower temperature than flour or...

Graham Kerr's (the Galloping Gourmet) method of cooking rice is the best I have ever heard of, and with it you do not need to be mindful of the amount of water used. This works best with Thai Jasmine rice. Basmati might take a...

about indicators? The proportion of people knowing about the Maillard reaction may have something to do with Graham Kerr. At an intermediate level, you could just ask a large sample of people how they’ve been influenced by...

I’m very fond of my salad spinner – I think the Graham Kerr brand from TJ Maxx years ago – and I like the fact that the bowl has holes on the bottom so that the water comes right out into the sink. If...

"Kerr", Graham Kerr.

I vaguely remember. I was probably about six or seven, and was a big fan of both Julia Child and Graham Kerr. I tried to make a dish I saw on one of those shows and it was an utter disaster. My parents were so nice by actually...
