I discovered Jacque Pépin a year ago and I have fallen in love with him ever since. He's a joy to watch and he's a true gentleman in everything he does. Much love from Italy!
I've watched every TV chef for the past 40 years. I've enjoyed all their shows, but none compare to Jacques Pépin. He is in a class all his own. And he always will be.....
Proves that you can be a world class celebrity chef without needing to abuse or belittle anyone who just want to learn. Pepin is the best teacher ever.
A major bucket list item for me would be to go to his house in CT & cook with him & his daughter, Claudine. I'd bring the champagne. Oh, what a treat that would be!
Julie Enslow And he should know. He’s cooked for kings, presidents, the lot. Yet he’s so humble and no nonsense. So-called ‘chef’ Ramsey isn’t worthy to wash dishes compared to this man.
One of my heroes! Over the years he has showed me that cooking does not need to be complicated to taste great. His Fast Food My Way book(s) are incredible. Even he has to trim off a little freezer burn sometimes. His frugality is a breath of fresh air too!
I made this omelette for lunch today. I used cod instead of scallops, added a jalapeno, and omitted the cream. Alongside I had some scallion gratin, steamed broccoli, and half an avocado covered in some Rick Bayless-style salsa. It was delicious; highly recommend!
Chef Pepin, I was feeling blue until i watched you making an omelette. I noticed the same effect with Julia. Perhaps it is your apparently effortless sublimation that put me at ease.
He is the master. None of the famous TV chefs on Food Network have his heart. They may be technicians and cook well, but his heart and soul go into his food.
Pepin and Julia Child are so natural and realistic in that way: Don't squander or waste, repair it, no one will know. Pepin and Julia Child are so natural and realistic in that way. Plenty of chefs and cooks are like that IRL, but Pepin and Child don't mind saying it on film.
I remember watching Jacques Pepin on PBS in the SF Bay area on channel 9. I always enjoyed his cooking presentation. I met him and Julia Child at Williams & Sonoma up on California street in Laurel village in the 1990's doing a book signing. He was exactly the same way in person as he is on tv. "Happy cooking" 👍
He just absolutely nailed the middle of the scallion with no thought at all, if we knew nothing about this man's legendary history, this casual effortless act would be the moment you knew he was a true master.
I discovered Jacque pepin a few days back, in these few days I have fallen in love with the man. Not only he's a magnanimous cook and great teacher who makes everything look so simple, but he is also a very fine human with a humble personality. I have never resonated with a person this much in such a little time. And I think everyone in the comments section have a similar experience. I wish him all good health and happiness that the world has to offer. I wish he lives a long life. Also sadly, his wife passed away a few months back, probably because of which he isn't uploading videos for a few months. I pray he gets through the great loss and I believe his wife would be smiling seeing so many people love her husband for the man he is. I really hope nothing but happiness for the man and his family. ❤️
You know he almost died in a car accident in the 70's or so? That's why he can't really lift his left arm. The man is a legend. You should read his book.
M.Pepin is always ridiculously amazed me with used his Simple ingredients/ tools & methods, turns a normal dish into a sophisticated, luxury one. Wonderful. What a privilege to have chance to learn from whatever he’s offered. My deep admiration, respect, and grateful for. Thank you for the post.
Thank you for telling your autobiography and giving your entire family history like the Food Network/Cooking Channel while cooking. Simple, straight forward and to the point.
This is a great way to use your tuna fish (cheap) or leftover salmon, have done both and taste great with herbs or cheese. My pop was a chef at Adolphus Hotel Dallas Pepin reminds me and my sister so much of him. Memories RIP Pop...
My mother was notorious for cooking the life out of everything. Imagine my delight when I left home and discovered that you could make eggs like this! So much better than those dried out scrambled eggs I got at home! A few years ago, I made some simple scrambled eggs for my brother, and he complemented me on them! I guess I’ve learned to cook them well!
That looks incredible. Chef Pepin makes it look so easy. I think the hardest part for me is folding the omelet and placing it into the plate without falling apart.
There is a wonderful video of Jose Andres describing Chef Pepin making an omelette. He describes all of these techniques with such respect and amazement.
One time I saw Jacques cooking with Julia Child and she was making a dish with mushy peas and she said, “you have to bruise the peas, Jacques, bruise the peas.” And he said, “why?” “Have they been mean to you?” I’ve loved him ever since.
My hero M. Pepin demonstrates in every video the difference between following recipes and learning how to cook💕

Class! Good word.
yup. an absolute legend.

Yep. Anybody who screwed up their omelette in his class would be bawling because they let him down.
@@boxhawk5070 and you know Pepin would just come over, probably give you a glass of wine, and then show you how to fix it.
I disagree, I think Julia Child was just as good in her unique way.
Name names?
My money is on Alton Brown..... respectfully....
I’m 78 and have watched Jacques since childhood and have recently rediscovered him! A true classic chef! I love YOU
I would pay money just to watch this man stir eggs in a bowl. It's like culinary theatre.
Why? Why is it "culinary theatre"?
A major bucket list item for me would be to go to his house in CT & cook with him & his daughter, Claudine. I'd bring the champagne. Oh, what a treat that would be!
Man, I don't know how many Jacques Pepin making omelet videos I've watched,and I'm glad that I watched another one :D
"This is a dish fit for a King." And this time he's making it for himself. So appropriate.
Julie Enslow
And he should know. He’s cooked for kings, presidents, the lot. Yet he’s so humble and no nonsense. So-called ‘chef’ Ramsey isn’t worthy to wash dishes compared to this man.
@@Torahboy1
Yes you are totally correct. That's what I meant - "this time" he's making it for himself!
All of these primadonna chefs could learn something from him
👏👏👏
The ACTUAL KING
You know he's real when he picked up the piece that fell off and threw it in his mouth. 😅👌
Absolutely! I yelled "Attaboy!" :-)
Chef’s privilege!
I clapped when he did that. What a great chef.
That’s a Scooby Snack for the Chef!😂
that little detail just made my mouth water

That really struck a chord with me also. I love it!!
That’s the way we should all be cooking. He’s the best!

Don't you all end up smiling after watching his videos? I do.
I always wish I had a glass of wine to raise and give a heart-felt, "Happy cooking!", in return. 😃
I usually end up hungry!!!!!!!!! 😆
Yes. I smile during them as well. He's completely captivating.😂
The serving technique is perfect.

He is the master. None of the famous TV chefs on Food Network have his heart. They may be technicians and cook well, but his heart and soul go into his food.
Without a shadow of doubt, one of the world's best chefs.
"Whoop, that one a bit freezer burned." Trims it off but didn't edit it out. Dignity 👍
Pepin and Julia Child are so natural and realistic in that way: Don't squander or waste, repair it, no one will know.

No Hollywood, no hype, and no "pretend Food Network wanna be's"...a real chef, and one of the best teachers.
Thank you 👍. (My condolences on the passing over of your wife. 🙏🏻)
To get the omelette in perfect shape at the end with all that stuffing is impressive.
I just know that when I try to make this, the taste might be there but I'll need a lot of practice to match that perfect shape :)
I always mess up the folding 😫
The beauty here is the simplicity of it all, sharing skills in a way that anybody can copy and learn from
Super classy and still kicks ass at 84 yrs old
This guy is an international treasure!

Jaques Pèpin is the original Chef who brought simple and elegant French cooking to the TV and the whole world fell in love with his recipes.
A legend! Blessing and Respect from Canada 🙏🏽
I am cooking nothing but eggs this whole week. He is such a good teacher. I feel motivated. All other chefs confused me.
I love this guy
I love Mr. Pepin, I learned how to cook watching his shows. A true master.
I love how he's wearing his wife's apron..so sweet!❤
I just can’t get enough of this king
What a legend Chef Pepin is....🙏respects.
Big mistake watching this in bed. Now I'm hungry.
😂
Every damn time
Just shake hands with the bishop then you’ll fall right to see sleep
Sometimes when I watch his videos I become afraid that he's grown very frail in his old age. This goes away when he starts whisking eggs.
You know he almost died in a car accident in the 70's or so?
That's why he can't really lift his left arm.
The man is a legend. You should read his book.
I know what you mean, I worry about him too, but he seems fine.
Agree. Especially with the pandemic. The youngest and healthiest people has passed, so I understand.
Fuck yeah!
This is the best whisky eggs I have seen ever.
He is the King of all Chefs
Best chef on TV or Internet.
Watching Gordon Ramsey stresses me out, but Jacques Pepin videos are ASMR.
Here's to you, King Jacques!
Jacques is a national treasure.
international, intergalactic

I am so glad you ate that mushroom! Real food for real people.
My confidence in cooking has gone way up because of watching Jacques.
I miss seeing Jacques Bradley Airport in Connecticut ❤A wonderful man who always said hi 👋 👨🍳
He is just so graceful and effortless.
Fit for a king..and I think I I’m capable of replicating that..Thank you Jacques!
What an absolute pro. Perfectly executed.
This man is incredible.
You’re the King! From California with love 💋

Make America Great Again! TRUMP 2020
"A dish fit for a king". Well, why not, since he is the King of Chefs! Bravissimo, Chef Pepin!
Straightforward, solid techniques. Love watching and learning from the master!
I just saw 3 mins ago about his basic american vs french omelette from like 30 years ago and he still teaches the same thing. Wow he never forgets...
He's wonderful!!! His enthusiasm and passion is contagious...a whole lot better than Covid-19!!! Merci Chef!!
This is a great way to use your tuna fish (cheap) or leftover salmon, have done both and taste great with herbs or cheese. My pop was a chef at Adolphus Hotel Dallas Pepin reminds me and my sister so much of him. Memories RIP Pop...
I love how he mentions to cook for, and with your friends when you can. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
What a gem of a man! Love him!
Yes a dish fit for a king!! Looks so good & great tip to cook an omelette! Yummy 😋. Thank you Jacques
God bless you, Chef Jacques, that is a wonderful culinary creation! Ideal for us who need comfort food during the pandemic. Greetings from Indonesia!
Jaques still crankin' out brunch!

Miss your television program..this is next best thing Chef Pepin! Cheers and ty for quality viewing lessons and pleasure.
Jacques, you are the King !!!!
Superb.
yeah....there isnt anyone better.
Yes there is. So many. But Jacques is great
@@chrisafp071 Name them so we all can get into a huge, incredibly time-wasting e-argument. :P
@@adamwhite_f7ck697 Lol
Monsieur Pepin is an international treasure!
Beautiful! Thank you! I don't get to do this in "professional" kitchens. This is real.
That was some true artistry getting the omelette folded and on to the plate!!!
I try and practice that - he must have made 10,000 in his life or way more. Impress your guests!
His folding and unfolding tips were so helpful for me. I could never get that lip to fully close.
I just made this the other day with some left over shrimp, spinach and garlic. Out of this world!
Jacques Pepin is the Bob Ross of cooking
Simple perfection.
Jacques Pépin is a wizard! I swear I could watch him make French Omelets for hours!
JACQUES, THIS LOOKS WONDERFUL, I’ll try it soon thanks, 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇺🇸🇺🇸
Watching him cook makes me happy. :)
I love this man and would give him the biggest hug I could. And I'm not gay, I just love him and admire his skills. He's the greatest.
Mr pepin, Mrs Childe and Mr Paul kahan are of Chicago are my favorite chefs 👩🍳
He's simply amazing 😍
I will make this for my wife! We live a little north in Maine so getting the shrimp and scallops fresh is easy.
So soothing to watch. Always something new to learn. Thanks Chef!
I love making omelettes on weekend mornings for my family and walking around talking like Jacques Pépin as I do it.
Hehehehehe his french accent is hard to duplicate, but yes, I've done that also!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😆👍
One time I saw Jacques cooking with Julia Child and she was making a dish with mushy peas and she said, “you have to bruise the peas, Jacques, bruise the peas.” And he said, “why?” “Have they been mean to you?” I’ve loved him ever since.
As always, little tips tucked into a very entertaining few minutes. Subtle how he does that! Thank you so much, Chef.
You are a king, chef Pépin!
I’m lovin’ his cooking!! I’m sorry to be only finding him at age 60.
Eggs are the perfect food and Jacques cooks them perfectly every time...
Love this man.
New found respect for French cooking.
Great chef for decades,much respect.
Simple is always the best. I love your cooking and your humility. Hats off to you🎩 Romas
Wonderful.....
I've always loved your style and your food, Monsieur.
I love every egg episode the emphasis on beating the eggs from side to side.
God bless you sir!
Love it! Please keep cooking 🍳 🙂 we will keep learning
I had a seafood omelet at a resort in Cabo with a heineken...Best meal in my life
Absolutely delicious with great ingredients.
Talk about a Master Chef...Top Chef.
BLOODY FANTASTIC
