Julia Child Recipes

I am a huge fan of Julia child recipes. Julia Child is a cooking icon of mine.  Julia Child was entertaining, but she wasn’t afraid to try things and if it didn’t go quite right, it wasn’t a disaster for her. Julia Child recipes are beloved by many.

Lemon Beurre Blanc

In the movie, Julie and Julia, a fish is being brought to the table and Meryl Streep, who was playing Julia Child,  mumbles “butter.” That fish was served in lemon beurre blanc. I decided I want to make Julia’s lemon beurre blanc for this fish. I wanted to make Julia Child’s lemon beurre blanc for a orange roughy recipe.

 

Something interesting I discovered as I was trying to track the recipe down on Google, there were different versions of it. Then I saw this image on Google:

This is what I found interesting about Julia Child’s lemon beurre blanc, it is made with white wine vinegar. If you google  Julia Child beurre blanc, almost all the “recipes” say to do vinegar and wine.  

However, looking at this beurre blanc recipe that Julia Child sent her sister it says “white wine vinegar”. It also says  “if it isn’t available to do vinegar and a wine.” 

 

Orange Roughy Mandarine Napoleon Beurre Blanc

 

Mandarine Napoleon

I had a bottle of Mandarine Napoleon, which is French liquor. I decided to enhance Julia Child’s lemon beurre blanc with the mandarine napoleon. The mandarine napoleon really gave this beurre blanc sauce a wonderful taste!

 

Orange Roughy Recipe

I love orange roughy. The orange roughy fillet is so light in flavoring that it is wonderful for a French recipe. When I decided to make a Julia Child fish recipe, I choose for it to be an orange roughy recipe!
