- Just in time for your Christmas feast, Chef Jacques Pépin shares his take on Mashed Potatoes and what to make with the leftovers!
Mashed Potatoes Serves 6
· 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
· 4 large garlic cloves (peeled or not; see the headnote)
· 3/4 teaspoon salt
· 4 tablespoons (1/2) stick unsalted butter
· 1 cup milk
· 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
· Wine for Cheers!
Gratin
· Eggs
· Pepper
· Orange Cheddar
Peel the potatoes and cut into large chunks (2- to 2 1/2-inch pieces). Drop the potatoes into a pot, cover with water, and add the garlic and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and boil gently for 22 to 25 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.
Push the potatoes through a food mill into a bowl. Add the butter and mix in thoroughly, then add the milk, mixing again until incorporated. Mix in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and the pepper and serve.
Leftover Mashed Potatoes
Mix leftover potatoes with eggs, pepper, orange cheddar -into a gratin, into the oven.

I'd watch him boil water. He's just that impressive to watch. Such a nice man who loves his family. Very humble.
Imagine this down to Earth humility in a ‘celebrity tv chef’ today? Life rewards those who are true to it. 👍
Hell yeah! I completely agree!
love how casually he talks about the late joel robuchon, one of the greatest french chefs ever to walk the earth. and to be honest, he absolutely can, as he's seen and done it all already. while remaining a down-to-earth, humourous, all-round absolute charm of a man pretty much anyone would love to spend a day (or hundred) in the kitchen with! who at 84 still mashes potatoes by hand like it takes no effort at all!
If mashing potatoes by hand takes significant effort, you're either using the wrong potatoes or undercooking them. It really shouldn't be much work.
I love the casual way he prepares food and puts a great dish together without effort-even hand mashing potatoes! ❤️
I hope he gets to live a thousand years. His cooking is great but for me just how at ease he operates calms me down.
Definitely a huge contrast compared to Ramsey or Marco pierre-white...
He's the Bob Ross of cooking.
1000 years?!
@@colinvannurden3090 Marco is pretty calming to be fair, while I love Ramsey I feel like hes slightly overrated
👍
Jacques makes me feel more confident about doing things like grabbing a bit of butter with my fingers from the butter dish. Like if anyone ever fussed at me for it, I can say “That’s what Jacques Pepin does.”
@Beliko R people have different view points on that. When I worked in the kitchens, I was one of the cleanest cooks and always cleaned up my area rest of the kitchen. There is a way to work clean and fast, even when you are crazy busy. I’ve been in some kitchens where I have seen it at the end of the night and it looked like a bomb went off in it. I called them slobs.
‘Butter makes it better’ is the motto of the French cuisine xD
I thought it is, "If in doubt just pour red wine in".
and he is still ripped. are we sure the french are the same species of homo sapiens as the rest of us?
@@dougmphilly Europeans move around a lot, I think that's why ^_^
When you go to American restaurants you might be surprised to know there can be a ton of butter in your food.
Quite right too!
Just a little butter... adds pounds of it. A little cheese. Like a cups. A very big cup. He is the best. I smile every time.
This man is a living legend. I am so envious of his knife skills, and he is in his 80's. I learned how to cook watching him and Julia. Just amazing.
Finally a chef, cooking REAL FOOD with such good and healing.
Yup. The dude rocks, and then some! I'm in total agreement with you!
Surprised he is still iving with all that butter
Me too! Started watching Julia in the early 70s and Jacques shortly thereafter. Glad to have a couple of his books also. Any one remember Graham Kerr, the "Galloping Gourmet"? He was my first TV teacher. Have his first book too.
Bon appetite
Jacques is the best
I still can't believe this man is in his 80's. Merci Jacques pour votre grand savoir, et de savoir le rendre si accessible à tous! ♥
Il enseigne bien, hein?
Helped teach me to cook. The Julia & Jacques series is still the best ever. No recipes just great technique. A national treasure. Love him!
I agree I grew up watching him and still love how he cooks, he is genuine and not overly scripted and dramatic, he is a real chef and I know cause I used to be one for a long time. His cooking, however not perfect but is beautiful to watch. He Pulls it off like a a real pro in a kitchen, no one can tell unless you were trained, but that does not mean its bad, just shows he is the real deal.
My wife gave me that book in 1999. My favorite is the duck with parsnips. It's a cut up, pan fried duck. This is likened to Southern fried chicken - a bird cooked in its own fat. Memorably good recipe.
Classic mashed potatoes is probably one of my most favorite dishes on the planet.
Jacques teaches, entertains,relaxes us, and makes us happy. Must be really nice people that are his fans. Check out all the comments and replies. Not one nasty, snarky, arguing person in the entire group. Huge compliment to this legend.
have watched you all during your career. first time when you were teaching danny kaye how to cook in the 50s i believe. you were a hansom black haired boy....a fine cook even then. and i thank you for all those years.----betty
That's awesome, betty!
Omg I would love to see Jacques with Danny Kaye!!!
Very funny Gus...
I absolutely adore Jaques. Always watched him when possible. I loved when he cooked with Julia Child on occasion. Remember how he was very frugal and would use limp veggies for soups ? He would say, "Don't waste anything." He's the best.
Betty, I'm jealous that you have gotten to watch the Chef for so long. Bless you.
1 clove, 2 cloves, 5 cloves, a whole head. . .
Yessir! Happy Cooking Sir!
MasterChef Pepin always taught soaking your potatoes for freshess and to release excesss starches bravo to you Master Pepin for your passion for french home cooking
im glad youtube was made to allow elderly chefs to share their recipes
He likes his stuff just like I do. Brown. Almost burnt. Especially English muffins and toast. Anything with cheese like this.
For anyone who thinks this looks easy, try it at home. He just makes it look easy.
Sir Jacques, incase you are reading this. I just want you to know how much I adore your cooking! ❤️ You always inspire me to do better and serve a great meal. Thank you for sharing your talent and art of cooking. Salute! From Berkeley California.
Heaven for me would be arriving at the pearly gates and finding out that Jacques Pepin was the chef!
My favourite chef! He is a breath of fresh air compared to these fast and slick narciscistic youtube chefs
I've been watching him for I don't how how long. Every time I see him use black pepper, I think of Julia Child getting on his case for not using white pepper.
They made a great team. Rest in peace Julia.
Just found this channel - been cooking for 30 years , and I learn something new every time I watch this guy
3:39...The beautiful puddle of butter on top running down the potatoes is gangster.
Back in the 80's this guy taught me about using olive oil on my potatoes be they mashed, baked, fried or w/e. I've been in his debt ever since!
I like the idea of the garlic boiling with the potatoes because it will come out soft and easy to infuse when mashing.
As I often cook for one, I enjoy that so many recipes scale down and still work...
We're still regularly cooking the Salmon with Basil Tomato Sauce that we learned from watching Jacques 20+ years ago
Jacques! You are the man! You take something so simple, and keep it simple but make it so exquisite at the same time. Watching you and Julia Child cook together was one of my most joyous moments as a chef.
Automatically liking, almost unseen. Jaques knows best. Thank you Jaques. Knoblauchkartoffelbrei, heaven!
I absolutely love Jacque Pepin . I’ve been watching him since I was a child. I have cooked many many of his dishes. Excellent chef, so so talented. ❤
I will be watching an hour a day if this now! I would listen to any book he narrated
I love this man. So calm and relaxed. He cooked with Julia child amd was asked to cook for JF Kenedy
I love this man so much! Dad used to pile mash in form of a mountain, indent the middle and pour cream into it with parsley and more cracked pepper. Oh man, it was indulgent heaven.😍😍
I knew that butter didn't stand a chance... love this guy 🤣
LOL
Something as simple as potatoes can be brought to the utmost elevation with just a little bit of finesse.
I like your recipes because these are simple to do with less accessories and utensils. Lot of love from India Mr Pepin.
84 years old and is still the classiest. He is the man
Making a gratin/soufflé with leftover mashed potatoes. So simple it’s genius
Those gratin potatoes look amazing
Very lovely man and gentlemen
The most wonderful chef in the world next to Julia child(R.I.P.)
Love his style of cooking.
Every time I think I’m over the French method, Chef Pépin reminds me that elegance in technique is part of any region.
I was so happy to see that Jacques has a TH-cam channel! I learned my knife skills and much more watching him as a kid! He’s still a great teacher. Proper technique without being preachy or arrogant. Class.
I think this guy has a future in the culinary industry.
We might see him on Top Chef 👨🏼🍳 some day 😂😂😂
Best and warmest mash potato recipe ever!
Many blessings, hugs and prayers from your eternal sister in Christ somewhere near Seattle, Chef Pepin.
As the kids say these daZe...
You rock!
My story!
Sticking to it... 👏👍👏
⚘🙏❤🙏⚘
You are a classic Jacques I love you thank you for all the years you taught me to be a good home cook every guest I ever served loves my cooking . I am a happy cook happy cooking.
When Pepin talks mash potato, YOU LISTEN TO WHAT HE SAYS ABOUT MASH POTATO!!!!!!
He is missing nutmeg, so no, you do not have to listen
@@nixxblikka because you have a long career as a classically trained chef...
@@teddingtonbear3265 right you are my friend. And you don't have to be a chef, to know whats tasty and what not. The logic tells, nutmeg and potatoe love each other
@@nixxblikka You don't have any logic, you only have opinion. Also, logic would mean the ability to actually spell potato.
Teddington Bear I am not a native speaker, how many languages do you speak? Apart from that, just try the nutmeg, that’s the logic. Also plenty of other chefs do it. He also doesn’t add any sweet to his vinaigrette. He is like Jamie Oliver. Just cooking, but doesn’t care about the extra mile
Every video is a master class
800 views?? He’s a living legend
I just stumbled onto this channel, had no idea he was making new videos! Hopefully more people will see this.
@Dave White
?
@Dave White what the hell?
Outta Thyme567 We miss you Jacques!
Axiom Steel26 I know he is but his last PBS series was last year. You’ll see reruns now and then but that’s it.
old is gold he is such amazing chef ............love you man
I couldnt make toast without burning it before I discovered this fine fellow... he has my gratitude - - I remember as a a young kid in my Grandma's house she always used to put a small piece of coal in a pot of water that had peeled potatoes in to keep them from going manky
I have left over mashed potatoes from last night and that second baked dish is for sure what dinner is going to be tonight
how can you not love him he's the GOAT
No plural in Frenglish! Love it.
I love you, you inspired me to cook from a young age! I was shocked to find you living in CT! I live in Moodus CT very near you. I would love to meet you sometime and just shake your hand. Thank you for being a role model in my life when A father was not possible. Not to mention the life skill to feed my family health home cooked great food that I'm proud to say I'm now making for my grandchildren! Hope your feeling better, so glad I found this on youtube.
I was waiting for him to say happy cooking at the end
I don’t think he can, as that was a PBS thing. He should definitely have some other catch phrase to close out the show though.
"And here we are."
Appy cooking, you mean
And to listen how eggs should be cracked 😂 I love this man ❤️
No wonder I thought mashed potatoes in France were amazing. The amount of butter is mindblowing 😳. And then some olive oil on top...
Love !!!!!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️😘⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗!!!!
We need more Pépin!!!
Lé gratin du Jacques Pepín! Ohhhh fontastique!
Always delicious food and even with something so simple, flavor options. Never claims that there's only one way. One of the best teaching chefs of all time.
I totally agree!!! No such thing as too much garlic!!! Thanks again, Chef Pepin!
Always enjoyed him and Julia...and Graham Kerr
such happy wholesome comment sections are the exception if not rare...
Seen from France, you're a really great ambassador of french cooking! Keep coocking for all of us. Merci Jacques
It doesn't matter what Jack is teaching. I really enjoy his joi de vivre. He enjoys the food too, sumptuous no matter what he prepares.
I love to watch him work with food! He is so classy!
Beautiful Chef Jaques, what an inspirational man and a hero of mine, how I wish I could meet him in person
First time viewer. Nice video. I will watch another. Great idea adding leftover recipe. Never heard of that dish. I must try it! Thanks from Texas.
It's so fascinating how he speaks with this heavy french accent but when he says the word "water" it sounds so distinctly american that it takes a few words for the accent to pick up again. Edit: 1:10 for the segment discussed
chaigonjenkins nice catch 😂
now I can't tell if he's capable of speaking with an american accent all the time but chooses not to
@@alibitokbayev3811 neither, what you are picking up on is the result of being immersed in the United States, is actually quite common for people with accents to lose them after a certain period of time. I’m surprised that his accent hasn’t remained because most people who come from another country retain their accent without any change to it or at least any major change once they reach a certain age, it’s more common with younger people to lose their accent than it is with older but it isn’t unheard of.
American: Wadder, budder
British: Wo'ah, bah'ah
Haha yes, I noticed that too!
I could watch him for days......a legend!!!
Indeed. Watch. Learn. Do. Drink. th-cam.com/video/nfY0lrdXar8/w-d-xo.html
I just hope this guy is cooking into his 100’s ♥️♥️
Potatoes are the most amazing food and its amazing how inexpensive they are.
Absolutely love watching and listening to him! I grew up watching him and Julia together on every Saturday on pbs. The way he teaches is so soothing and almost healing. I just play his videos even just to hear him talk. Thank you for being who you are, Jacque. Much respect and love from Japan. xoxo
My favourite chef
Jesus!.. he makes even that look Fabulous!🥰
My HERO greatest cooking legend of all time.
The best of all time and also the classiest
I’ve watched him all my life. He’s a wizard in the kitchen. He had a nice show with Julia Child then she died. Felt like I had lost a wonderful friend. Now I’m 77 so me and Jacques Pepin are next. We’ve had a lot of good meals though!
11k views and not 1 dislike.. that is a 1st for me.. absolute treasure!
Monsieur Pépin, you are an international treasure!!! I would love you to be my Grandfather!!!
May God bless you forever!!!
So happy to find some new videos with Jacques. I think I've watched every JP video on TH-cam, and always hope for more. More, please. Thanks!
Jacques Pepin always does great in videos.
Thank you for always sharing your talent . My condolences Chef Pepin, may your precious Gloria rest in peace 💜
I always feel relaxed watching Jacques work in the kitchen, even on something as simple as mashed potatoes...
I love this man
I like that he gives you options and one masher is not the best but he "likes" to do it this way. Very good teacher.
My Wife loves mashed 'tatters. I must try adding the garlic (we love garlic). I usually add butter and plain yogurt instead of milk. Salt & pepper, and that's that!
I too would watch him boil water❤
Very easy and simple way of doing something which you also enjoy...look casual as it is very easy for him just like fish to water... great learning experience 👍👍👍
Mes hommages à monsieur Pépin. Une immense source d’inspiration culinaire. J’ai eu la chance de pouvoir le suivre à la télévision, de Montréal, depuis plusieurs années, et j’ai toujours eu un grand plaisir à faire ces recettes, et surtout à les dégustées. Chapeau bas grand chef!
Please make more!! I think im watching every video with this legend in it
Butter is core, potato is but the vehicle.
My favorite food on earth , add gravy of course .
You can never have too much butter 😊
Love the greAt Mr jacque pepin ty so much for these videos and recipes absolutely timeless
I can’t wait to try the golden mound potatoes. Thank you- just today, I made your au gratin potatoes- they are very good every time! You are right, garlic in potatoes is perfect.
What a delightful surprise to find this! We can all continue to learn from the legend - a happy new year, indeed.
I feel like I have found gold with this little channel! As always, I'm in awe watching Jacques work!
so the TH-cam algorithm works for me. i get lots of his videos and they are all great! such a nice person. although I prefer nutmeg over garlic in my mashed potatoes 😀
U Da Man! Thanks for all the lessons given to us all.
