I have so loved Ming for years. But when I saw the respect, good humor and gentleness that he offered to Jacques Pepin (who is after all my idol of all chefs) I loved him even more. This is a new favorite cooking video. Thank you.
It always is a pleasure seeing these two socialize together and just happens they are both renowned maater chef's in they're own right. To cook food, is to love food. 😃
Nearly all of my cooking skills I’ve learned over the years are from watching Jacques Pepin. I always cook my omelettes ( perfectly ) by watching and learning from his videos. Excellent!
Ming, you showed so much respect for Jacques and who he is to the culinary world. I am now a fan of yours for life. You could teach a coarse on how to respect and appreciate those that paved the way. Thank you.
@@clintwhatley7981 Did you know Jacques had a stroke when he hit the age of 80? He couldn't go to New York for the birthday celebration his friend had arranged for him with 80 birthday cakes. They Skyped from NY to his home.
@@joannbrooker9282 It's great to see the old Food network guys get together, nowadays it's nothing but competition, not my cup of tea. I had the pleasure of meeting almost all the chefs, Ming Tsai, Bobby Flay, Mario Batali, Martin Yan, Emeril Lagasse, Rachel Ray, Giada De Laurentiis, Wolfgang Puck, Morimoto, Guy Fieri, Anthony Boudain, but I never met Jacques Pepin. I hope one day I can so lucky to cross paths with Jacques Pepin, that would be a great day for me.
@@fifermcgee5971 did you know that Jacques was in a terrible car accident in the 1970’s? No one believed he would make it, and the doctors operated as they had never seen so many injuries in one person at one time. His will to live and to create is what has kept him going. What a great teacher.
So many chefs are intense and stressed and bang. bang. bang! Jacques just calmly cruises through, so competent and relaxed, and just loving the process. He just epitomises the love of food and cooking, and that it doesn't have to be a stressful experience :)
Adam Poll, you said it perfectly, “just calmly cruises through...” I think that’s what makes him so very enjoyable. He’s such a master and not bang, bang, bang, but perfectly paced and fast enough. Perfection. And, he’s not the least self-absorbed, he’s so pleasant all the time. But, you said it, exactly.
eh... i don't think you're giving ming enough credit there are certainly some cook show hosts who talk over Jacques and don't pay the respects they should be paying. a quick youtube search will show you some examples
❤Excelent episode ! I can not wait to try these original recipies from this 2 master !😊 Thank you for bringing great programing to you tube..I can watch again and again ❤
The man is a legend. "when you know you're going to lose, volunteer", no wonder him and his wife had such a long and loving marriage, best relationship advice I've ever seen.
To the uneducated this may seem like he is fawning...it's not. He just has the chance to show respect to a legend that is still alive. Been an off/on watcher of the show, but this was a superb blend of art and class. Bravo Ming, my hat is off to you.
Amen. We are going to miss master chef Jacques Pepin when he is no longer with us, but as long as we cook great food he will still be tight here beside us. What an honor to have grown up watching him cook. ♥️
I was raised on liver, cooked by my mother as well. I still love it. I will also drink whatever you put in front of me, haha. Love Jaques and Ming, probably my favorite two chefs! I do miss Yan Can Cook though, he was always entertaining to watch with his giant cleaver.
I absolutely love Mr. Pepin and Ming. I am a "home chef" and a big foodie and have been watching both of these great chefs for many years. I've learned a lot from both. God bless Jacques Pepin!
We were lucky enough to meet Ming a few years back. He is as nice and genuine as he seems on screen. Also extremely funny could probably make a career as a stand-up comedian.
Ming Tsai was one of my favorite Food Channel hosts along with Emeril waaay back in the beginning. Paired with Jacques qui est la maître de cuisine dans tout le monde, c’est simplement un rêve à voir ce duo
OMG I just completed this liver meal; it was awesome!!! Thank you so much Ming and Jacque; so easy and wonderful on the tongue!!! Fed two adults for under $5 per person; taste manifique!!!!!
I never heard of "Simply Ming" (I'm not american) show but after this episode with Jacques, I'm totally going to watch all available episodes on TH-cam! Not just for Jacques, but also Ming is an amazing host.
I have a feeling that in years to come, maybe Ming will become somewhat like Jacques, well revered, because he is so very good, yet very humble and selfless, much like Jacques. I love these videos with the two of them, can’t get enough.
I don't know how I missed this one - but I love the both of you and together you're amazing! I was looking for a chicken liver recipe for dinner and came across this. Ming's mousse as an appetizer & Jacque's Livers and potatoes for dinner! Thank you both - loved watching you cook together - the only one missing was Julia :( She would have loved being a part of this! THank you! Thank you!
I made the chicken livers, 10 yr old boy wouldn't touch it. Just pureed the whole thing and out came a really decent pate. It actually worked and held up well to all the fancy pate recipes out there.
Wow. I’ve Sean Jacques make soufflés in different ways. His apricot & pistachio soufflé, ham & broccoli rabe soufflé, & cheese soufflé. This chocolate one looks easy compared to other recipes that seem very fussy. I’m practicing my soufflé skills so they’ll always come out perfect.
Ming, Just FYI , I live in Brazil and Brazil is the largest exporter of poultry in the world. However, a large percentage is exported to Muslim countries and they do not eat anything from the inside of the chicken, we have chicken livers, hearts, and gizzards coming out of our ears. We can buy a kilo of chicken hearts for a couple of dollars. Brazilians put them on a spit and barbecue them all the time. You can always find them as an appetizer in a Brazilian churrascaria. Bon apetite
Chicken livers fresh from the still ubiquitous neighborhood butchers, sauteed in butter with garlic, onion and thinly sliced apples, over rice-one of the easy cheap meals that often saved this art student from starving in Paris (for 2, for 10 francs, in 1987.) His methods, followed correctly, will make simple nutritious, but more importantly-mouthwateringly delicious food. You will find yourself demanding better quality in other aspects of your life, if you up your food game. (Affordable Macrobiotic and Vegan/Vegetarian groceries/Restaurants abound there, as well. Or did. Not sure if Whole Foods has bought France yet.)
Yes 🎶🎶🎶🎶 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤗🤗🤗🤗 !!!! I love you gentlemen I remember you from years ago when I was young , I just found your TH-cam channel. Wow wow 🤩 I’m a new follower thanks for sharing five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and sum bright ons to lighten up your day 💫🌟💫🌟🌟💫🌟✨🌟✨ thanks for sharing , until the next time👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
lillylasam12 You just saw him make them! Jacques doesn’t do recipes and quantities. It’s a splash of this..... a touch of that. THAT’s why he’s a culinary genius! My mother was half French. She cooked the same way. Even when baking a cake, she did it all by skill and experience. She didn’t even OWN a set of scales or measuring cups.... You don’t need a recipe. Just do it the Jacques way. It might not turn out exactly the same. But that’s kind of the whole POINT of real cooking. I’m a trained chef, and I’m constantly changing the way I make my favourite classic dishes. I’ve been making chocolate soufflé like this for forty years, exactly like this..... BUT I experiment. Try adding some grated nutmeg on the top. Or add a drop or two of oil of cloves to the mixture.
Jaques is a true Renaissance Man: chef, painter, historian, host extraordinaire!
I have so loved Ming for years. But when I saw the respect, good humor and gentleness that he offered to Jacques Pepin (who is after all my idol of all chefs) I loved him even more. This is a new favorite cooking video. Thank you.
"You're Jacques Pepin. I'm just Ming." I love Ming's reverence for Jacques. Two great individuals!
Ah it warms my heart to watch two gentle men share affection and cooking skills. Both so appealing in their own way.
Emmm. I'm smiling 😊
It always is a pleasure seeing these two socialize together and just happens they are both renowned maater chef's in they're own right.
To cook food, is to love food. 😃

I always cook my omelettes ( perfectly ) by watching and learning from his videos. Excellent!
All class these two friends are so enchanting and fun to watch. Jacque Pepin is a national treasure.
I haven't seen Ming in a while, couldn't have stumbled on a better episode...I've already watched all of Chef Pepin's videos😁
Ming, you showed so much respect for Jacques and who he is to the culinary world. I am now a fan of yours for life. You could teach a coarse on how to respect and appreciate those that paved the way. Thank you.
You are 100% correct. Much respect.
Jacques Pepin is a living legend.
He's the Best!
@@clintwhatley7981 Did you know Jacques had a stroke when he hit the age of 80? He couldn't go to New York for the birthday celebration his friend had arranged for him with 80 birthday cakes. They Skyped from NY to his home.
Indeed he is.

That's because they need to be fast when working in restaurants

Jaques enjoys cooking whether he is a chef or not he thoroughly enjoys his work to the point that it is not work to him just a wonderful experience
It’s a joy to watch him cook and eat, enjoying life every minute!!
23:48 "Dude that is so good, OMG I can't believe I just called you dude".
It doesn't matter who's show Jacques is on, it's his show!
True🤣😂🤣
*whose
eh... i don't think you're giving ming enough credit

This is so relaxing to watch for some reason
LyricBoss i agree, i felt that way when watching Jacques cook in a TH-cam vid the other day, so soothing.
Nah ImOnlyserious its always relaxing to watch someone cook. Especially Jacques.
❤Excelent episode ! I can not wait to try these original recipies from this 2 master !😊 Thank you for bringing great programing to you tube..I can watch again and again ❤

Jacques is awesome….Ive loved him since I was a kid…
He's been serving the public with great food for 69 years. - He deserves every drop of that martini...
Amen. We are going to miss master chef Jacques Pepin when he is no longer with us, but as long as we cook great food he will still be tight here beside us. What an honor to have grown up watching him cook. ♥️
I am French. Ming’s prononciation and accent are perfect when he speaks French 👌👍Love waching these two together.
Two great chefs . Ming like Jacque is so humble
awesome! Jacques is the best! hes the one chef that everyone looks up to. he's the best.
Ming and Jaques are so elegant and sophisticated !
Both are Masters! Ming is also great.
I am a big fan of chefs like Pepin..more cooking less talk. Wonderful to watch.
2 classy chefs - we are blessed to have them!
Ming did a great job with this. Jacques is forever the man.
This man has changed my life for the better I like his style!
2 great cheffs! Amazing!!!

Just cooked his chicken livers! Instantly became a family favourite. We LOVED the taste!
Terrific video! Two gentlemen making magic, with respect.
I love livers and gizzards as well as hearts!!! My Great Grand Mother , and my Great Grand Father as well as my Grand Father were all from Lyon.

That price includes a bottle of wine too!
I never heard of "Simply Ming" (I'm not american) show but after this episode with Jacques, I'm totally going to watch all available episodes on TH-cam! Not just for Jacques, but also Ming is an amazing host.
Match made in Heaven. Imagine choice of 2 menus at same restaurant. M & J !
One of my best times watching different shows of the Master Chef and trying them with my mother priceless
21:45
Ming: "I can't wait to taste your souffle , Jacques."
Jacques: "...Ok..."
Jacques said "ok" like that all the time. That's just the way he replies to people.
I wish my girl looked at me like Ming looks at Jacques.
Learn to cook
imEnkel I bet ur better looking then Ming though lol
I am roaring, I know this is an old post, but you got me laughing on that one.
Get a decent girl, then.
C_ Farther if

Its soothing to watch chef Pepin cook.

Two best ones
Two lovely chefs to watch cook together. Wow!!

What a treat.
fantastic cooking video! goes straight to my favorites.
:))
Jacques and Ming together in a kitchen what a treat. Chicken livers I am not to sure but I will try it.
Food is an art guys , full stop !
Just watched Pepin's chicken livers and potatoes. All I need. Off to the kitchen!
I made the chicken livers, 10 yr old boy wouldn't touch it. Just pureed the whole thing and out came a really decent pate. It actually worked and held up well to all the fancy pate recipes out there.
Ive always used ketchup to thicken and sweeten sweet sauces, now i can say Jaques Pepin also does it
Really enjoyed this 🤙🤙
Wonderful food, simpatico vibe! Great show!
What a great food pairing, Jacque and Ming!!
Ming makes cooking simple.
How wonderful.
I love you Ming.
awesomenesss
his painting is beautiful :'(
Wow. I’ve Sean Jacques make soufflés in different ways. His apricot & pistachio soufflé, ham & broccoli rabe soufflé, & cheese soufflé. This chocolate one looks easy compared to other recipes that seem very fussy.
I’m practicing my soufflé skills so they’ll always come out perfect.
Amazing food..

Two of my faves!
Roast the finished potatoes until golden brown....decedent!
Chicken livers fresh from the still ubiquitous neighborhood butchers, sauteed in butter with garlic, onion and thinly sliced apples, over rice-one of the easy cheap meals that often saved this art student from starving in Paris (for 2, for 10 francs, in 1987.)

I remember my first chicken liver sandwich which my father bought for me on the market in the '60s. And I still love to cook it in different ways.
Agathokakologic, I raise a glass (filled with coffee at the moment) to you.
Chicken liver is good for those who have stagnant liver chi. Thank you
"nothing collapsed so we can get drunk now " hahahaha
Yes 🎶🎶🎶🎶 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤗🤗🤗🤗 !!!! I love you gentlemen I remember you from years ago when I was young , I just found your TH-cam channel. Wow wow 🤩 I’m a new follower thanks for sharing five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and sum bright ons to lighten up your day 💫🌟💫🌟🌟💫🌟✨🌟✨ thanks for sharing , until the next time👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Think you for your shows
Love it!
Breaded an fried, simple yet tasty.
I have chicken livers here right now and onion, garlic, port and mushrooms. I try. See how it goes. Potatoes too!
Very cool!!
Amazing man.
I think I'll try the livers with mushroom and cranberries, but cook mine completely through.
I need a napkin; I'm salivating, not exactly drooling but damn.
thanks
Ketchup is amazing. Don’t be afraid to use it in a strong sauce when you need a little sweetness, tartness and body.
Ming spoke more French in 20 minutes than Jacques has spoken in years.
LES FRANCAIS SONT LES MAITRES DE LA CUISINE!
Holy crap. It's OPB!
Who new Liver could look so good!
JO JO IN VT 💕😄🇺🇸
Just found this one. Cool
Ming speaks good French
"I can't believe I just called you dude."
"...Okay"
Hey Ming, let Jacques do his thing
Is there a recipe for the chicken livers that Jacques Pepin made?
lillylasam12
You just saw him make them!
Jacques doesn’t do recipes and quantities. It’s a splash of this..... a touch of that. THAT’s why he’s a culinary genius!
My mother was half French. She cooked the same way. Even when baking a cake, she did it all by skill and experience. She didn’t even OWN a set of scales or measuring cups....

What brand is that skillet uses for the chicken livers? It sounds like it has the weight I’m looking for.
