Memories from the ‘Queen of the Kitchen,’ Julia Child
Imagine yourself at eight years old in the kitchen with a very tall lady wearing high heels, a dress, and pearls, and she asks you to crack eggs. And not just a couple of eggs, a dozen eggs one after another until you learn the technique of cracking eggs without shells falling into the bowl. But, fear non the less, if a shell does fall into the bowl, use another piece of the eggshell to capture it and bring it to the surface for easy removal.
Michelle recalls the classroom and her beautiful, elegant teacher, Julia Child, as we discuss this incredible opportunity bestowed upon her as a student at the Santa Barbara Montessori Center School in my latest podcast.
As a young child, Michelle did not know exactly who Julia Child was until a conversation with her grandmother as they drove by Julia’s home in Hope Ranch led to her discovery of the French Chef. A famous chef who had a cooking show on television, authored numerous cookbooks, and was known worldwide by connoisseurs of fine cuisine, Julia Child.
