  • Jill...love the pork recipe...especially love watching you...Marilyn C...

  • Jill,I love you! It would be so fun to cook with you. Starting with shopping for the groceries. I'll even wash all the dishes and scrub the pans! Many could learn from you,great style. Chris

  • absolute joy to watch!!! jill makes you feel like you can be a chef!!! Simple, to the point and the results are always delicious!!!!

  • I like this. Fun to watch and informative, very relaxed. The reason why you wouldn't want to season your shallot if you are caramelizing them is because salt pulls out the moisture. It's easier to get that caramelization going if you wait until you get some color. Faye

  • This was a great little video! The host is super cute and loved the onion goggles haha.

  • i meant people in general , not the host .. ;--) ... can't wait to go to blue ribbon this summer !

  • and giving it a good wipe down .. please , wipe down your steak ..

  • Your new kitchen is a lot bigger than your old one!

  • Nice but she didn't mention rubbing oil on and then seasoning the steak. She showed it but most people would oil the pan and not the meat which, IMO, is the wrong way to go.

  • Hahaha, I like this - she had a great personality.

  • Wow. I'm really kind of speechless...

  • Judging by her physiological response right around 1:03 ... I guess I'm not the only one that considers melting butter an aphrodisiac ~ I've always said, butter makes it better!

  • are you guys kidding me?
