@@Triple070007 or when he was making a dish using a lot of leftover cheese “just cut the moldy piece off and use the rest”. He is great. So many would just throw it all away. I think of something a friends said once “these people have never known hunger”
Jacques is a true role model. A total master at his craft but humble as ever. He just wants to teach people what he loves. No ego at all. We need more people like that!
The people they have been telling us are the Master chefs are quite often not necessarily the best, but good TV material. Gordon Ramsey is a good example, hugely entertaining, but his Spaghetti Carbonara…….. oh jeeez !
That's why I loved Anthony Bourdain. He was totally humble and always made it a point to reinforce to everyone that he was not a great chef. He always said he was a leader of men and relied on a talented crew but he was never a chef who came up with exquisite ideas and he couldn't understand how his friends that were those types of chefs could look at something so simple and create a masterpiece, a Rembrandt of food. His friends that were the worlds greatest chefs and visionaries were just as humble as him. It seems like a handful chefs become famous and develop an ego due to their celebrity status. Anthony always said he felt like a fraud. I really miss that guy he had such a huge impact on people who never met him yet we all felt like we lost a dear friend.
Dear KQED, please send him our regards. I've been thinking of him and his family. I don't know if he recorded this recently but please thank him. He has been a lovely calm during this time and he is appreciated very much. And thank you for keeping these videos for us.
M. Pepin, one of the greatest Chefs of all time! Seriously. I'd give anything to sit down to a simple meal cooked by him, say an omelette or scrambled eggs...it would be flawless and utterly sublime. A man who knows how to cook the most fabulous and complex you would ever eat, but could also make you the best damn hotdog you'd ever have and do it with with as much love and compassion for cooking as the former. I used to watch him as a kid. Great man, great technique, and so down to earth. A master and guru.
lol - my Nan had a little gas cooker on legs! the lighting of the oven with a spill, the knob the size of a teacup, the fearsome jets, all produced her wondrous cooking, never tasted gravy like hers since, simple food but delicious
Such a family loved recipe from my French-Indian maternal grandma… seeing this here today brings back so much memories from her beautiful lil kitchen, oh and the aromas…!! Thank you dear Jaques! Love and greetings from Malaysia 😊🌿🌺
Your videos are always wonderful learning tools for those of us who are widowers, and whose wives were such great cooks that we never thought about cooking. I can ALWAYS follow the directions in your simplest videos. Grazie, grazie!!
Recommend watching him in his episodes on SIMPLY MING. The host looks at J.P. with such respect and reverence that one commenter said, " I wish my girlfriend looked at me the way Ming looks at Jacque Pepin." The response to that was, "Learn to cook!" 😄✌
Mon premier chef de cuisine 🙂, deja a l'age de 6 ans je regardai attentivement les emissions avec mr Pepin..... qui ma appris a faire de magnifiques omelettes. Et depuis cet age ,les techniques culinaires se sont toujours graver dans ma conscience. Merci Jacques , d' un cousin Acadien qui t'apprecie beaucoup
Lamb is very good for eating. It is easily digestible and diverse. Used widely in middle eastern food dishes and Mediterranean dishes. You can cook a butterflied leg of lamb on the grill and it is fabulous, Darlink, just fabulous!
Wished I had paid more attention to my mothers cooking. She'd take a big honkin' leg o lamb and shake on some seasoning, stick in some pieces of raw garlic, shove it in the oven for a while and take it out and carve and serve - - - SIMPLY HEAVEN !! Thank you Mommy 💜✌😢
JACQUES, HELLO, gee I’ll have to try lamb this way , all my lamb in the past 50 years comes from AUSTRALIA never see AMERICAN LAMB ANYMORE , CHEERS 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇺🇸🇺🇸
He does every meal and video, in his home kitchen, where every modern day chef (expert) wanna be on food channel has a super high dollar kitchenette, Jacques is the best !!
I will continue to comment on every video that Jacques is a golden god and the greatest chef ever to have lived. Long May he live and I hope his good health let’s him live to 120 years.
Jacques is the best. Grew up watching with my mom and Grama. We watched him, him and Julia, him and his daughter and now just him again. He brings back such good memories and glad he’s still at it!
I have been watching his shows on PBS since I was kid, he always makes everything so simple. And it is. Then I try his recipes and they never turn out quit the same. Still delicious, but not the same.
I envy the crew for these shows -- I imagine they get to taste all these great meals the chef prepares! Merci beaucoup, maître, pour les recettes et les techniques que vous nous montrez dans ces videos!
I like him so much! Realistically, we’re all gonna put the pieces of lamb in the pan and “make” them fitting brown. Pepin, “I’m going to turn them anyway”. Yep we all are, thanks Jacques.
I love love, love this man. Him and Julia are two of the most influential chiefs ever! Whenever I hear Jacques's voice my mouth starts to water,... look out taste buds.
I've seen him take his finger and get ALL the white out of egg shell. He grew up during the Second World War in France and you had to make do with what you had. He's never forgotten where he came from. God Bless You!
I have that exact same pot and it is rather heavy. I certainly would have removed the meat first before draining. Pleasure to know Jacques is in good health!
Reminds of my grand-ma lol. I would brown the pieces on the wood grill.🔥 Smoke from fire was the norm for ages, more satisfaction!👍 You can also roast the vegetables (& optionally peppers) on the grill.
Reminds me of my mother's cooking, big chucks of meat, potatoes and veggies. lots of texture and beautifully simple. She would cook Indian food, but the style is still similar,if not the taste
Yes. But if I may say, that’s like saying he speaks French as well…He had no choice lol. If a person grows without, but then acquires something: then it is something to be regarded as an achievement.
We used to make this every few weeks when I was a kid. Lamb breast was readily available back then. Now the markets here are offering only lean meat these days. I would take lamb breast over boneless skinless chicken breast or pork loin any time.
@@BigFatCock0 I see, alright. That makes sense. It can break down some proteins and also heat up the food faster. Depending on what you're doing this could be good or bad. Just need to control it appropriately
@@OhWaker It also has to do with the stew cooking down. If you salt it where it tastes just right at the beginning, by the end when the liquid amount has reduced by 25%-50%, it will taste too salty.
his mission is literally just to show everyone how easy and economical it is to cook at home. it is a public service, to spread awareness, and to preserve the art of cooking.

I love that he always says “whatever you have in the fridge”. He doesn’t waste food. He’s the best chef / cook to learn from.
And yet so simple and delicious recipes
He is truly the king of chefs
Definitely not pretentious, he said he'll mix leftover wines into one container, "Wine is wine!"
yes frugal gourmet, simple abundance!

Your so right simple ways to make great dishs
He's 85 years old and still going quite strong... Very steady and sharp. May God continue to bless him.
And I think still handsome. 😋
Amen.
I love how he mentions his mother and his wife so often.
It makes me happy and sad at the same time 😥😊
i would mention you same way on video if we were together.
@@addy5066 down bad
@Mantelar I got there after my cancer went into remission. Everyday is a bonus indeed.
This guy is a true legend..his demeanor is has always been great and he cooks with love.
The way he says at the end "Hope you enjoy doing that. Happy cooking." is honestly the best part about the video for me.
Dear KQED, please send him our regards. I've been thinking of him and his family. I don't know if he recorded this recently but please thank him. He has been a lovely calm during this time and he is appreciated very much. And thank you for keeping these videos for us.
85 years old and Jacque is still the man. I make awesome hard and soft-boiled eggs because of this guy
Give Chef John a look 😊
The Master. Calm, dignified. Cannot be beat.
I love how he forgets the salt almost every time! I' used to watch him, when I was a kid. Just re-discovered him. Love it! So relaxing to watch.
I love how his “coarsely chopped” onion is more perfect than my precisely diced onions.
The man's knife skills are absolute art.
Same here, but they learn that when they start in the restaurant trade or cooking school. I have tried but nearly cut my fingers off
I find myself watching his videos from beginning to end. Normally I’m skipping around ... not with this gentleman. He is the best.

I saw a vid of him doing a cooking demo for an audience of all CHEFS. And he made his perfect French omelet.
Real, simple country food made by a Master.
Who in the world dislikes a lovely, simple video like this?
He's a National Treasure.
What a legend. He’s still throwing fastballs in his relaxing approachable teaching style. Stews are about as homestyle cooking gets
Great Chef and a fantastic human being 👍
I'm glad I'm not the only one that forgets salt and pep until I get excited to taste something
Professional like to apply salt at the end to keep the meet more tender!
These videos are the highlight of my Wednesdays, and I’m perfectly OK with that.
Funny thing its a wed as i watch this
I never pass them by when YT puts them on my home page.
Absolutely love cooking the things I see him cook. It’s definitely made me a lot more knowledgeable.
My food never comes out the same. He is good cook.
I agree. He's a grest chef and teacher. I learn something new just from watching him.
a baby is not a thing!

Hats off to the Chef. No better Chef than Chef Pépin. God bless you.
America was lucky to have him! We are blessed.
You are my favorite chef. Always and forever. You are an architect, an artist and an engineer.
Favorite true Master. I was watching him long before the internet.
1st time here, lucky enough to have the Le Creuset pots, ( thanks lovely wife) what a simple recipe, and wonderful find for me, thanks TH-cam algo

Thank you, Jacques, America's Grand Pere.

lamb with garlic: Heaven!
After watching Jacques i feel so empowered and inspired to go into my kitchen and cook. I feel like there is not wrong way to cook. 🙃
Jacques would be the first one to tell you that .
this is what great teaching looks like!
Culinary genius 👏🙌
He didn't happen to find a mushroom in the fridge this time.
This gets me every time lol
😁😁😁
Came to the comments to find this one.
A true chef always tastes his/her food
I love watching Jacques cook, you know.

Just finished making this. I used leftover over leg of lamb roast. I used rosemary thyme sage. Very tasty. Thank you Jaques for making it so easy. 😊
Mr. Pepin has inspired me to cook more from home.
Thank you Jacques. Always love your wholesome cooking.
