    Made this tonight, substituting mushrooms for the zucchini, and it was wonderful. One of the great things about M. Pépin is the flexibility of his approach. You can follow the contours of his recipe but add this, take that out, use more or less of the other thing. Whatever suits your taste. His relaxed, non-doctrinaire attitude toward cooking has made me much more confident and effective in the kitchen.

      Don’t Forget Jaques was a world class chef in the South of France and New York City before I was born. And I am 63! Chef Pepin is my hero and I only wish I could eat one of his meals! If my memory is correct, I think I watched his PBS shows in the late 70’s in High School, certainly in the ‘80’s. God bless you Chef Pepin, I learned more from you than anyone.

      @@glamdolly30 I totally agree. I'm the sort of person who will use one pair of tongs to flip bacon at the start, and then another pair toward the end so I'm not imparting any uncooked bacon germs onto the cooked bacon when serving. But I do draw the line somewhere. Anything getting plunged into boiling water gets a pass. I don't even think twice about it. Heck, if I were cooking bacon and boiling potatoes or something, I could dip the "raw bacon tongs" in the boiling water for a few seconds and boom, good enough to serve with. The books say it's not quite "sterilization", but it's good enough. It's food, not surgical equipment.

    I did not have all the ingredients Jacques had in the video but I used the same technique he taught here and the dish came out great. Easy and tasty and inexpensive for a weekday dinner. I diced zucchini, onions, garlic, tomatoes, and the wrapped up cooked kielbasa sausage you get at the grocery store. Added olive oil, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. As Jacques advised, I covered the dish with a paper towel (I soaked my paper towel and wrung out the water to keep the mixture moist). Microwaved on high for about 4 minutes and then stirred the mixture and microwaved for around 3 more minutes until the sausage was warmed through. Then I added cooked spaghetti (linguini not available where I am). Mixed all together, added some good ol’ parmesan cheese from the green canister (“real” parmesan where I am is too expensive and outside the budget lol), and some more olive oil as Jacques did too. It was great and everyone liked it. Thanks Jacques for the skills and advice you taught here .

      What a sweet memory! Jacques and Claudine are still cooking together every chance they get, and Claudine is the President of our Foundation. Say hi to your mom for us! - CC from JPF

    Who needs Gordon Ramsey or White when there's a master like chef Pepin?

    Exatamente como eu faço no Brasil. A única diferença é que corto a abobrinha em tiras bem fininhas Julliene.

    Love to “cook” with chef Jacques. Love to watch him use the knife….he is mesmerizing!
