My Favorite Potato Bacon Soup | Chef Jean-Pierre

[@BBQDad463]

I just finished making and enjoying a full batch of this soup. Wife, Daughter, and I all loved it! I was not shy about the herbs. I think I made a slightly-oversized batch of the salsa but it adds a lot to the soup. Anyway, this is great stuff. Thanks for this recipe and demonstration, Chef!

I actually love watching JP's videos. I could do so all day. He is so cordial, warm, and friendly, it is refreshing. While I'd wager part of it is simply for the camera, I have no doubt that Chef JP is much different in person. Rock on, Chef. 🤙🤙🤙

[@Not_a_smart_man]

I think that chef JP (or maybe his production staff) get discouraged by seeing the other "youtube chefs" (sam, chef john, etc) whose videos are relatively short like 12 minutes or less and they have in the low millions of subscribers with view counts regularly in the hundreds of thousands, so they figure it's the length of the videos turning people off. While I'm sure it does for some of the ADD zoomers, JP and his staff should realize that the videos are different environments, those are for entertainment, these are for education. I hope they realize that and stop trying to neuter JP's teaching and personality just to make his videos shorter. I picture his director being like "hey JP stop talking the video is too long" and just get angry.

[@MississippiHappy]

Too long? Never . . . Interesting? Always . . . Do I learn something? Every time I watch a video . . . Thanks Chef Jean-Pierre for taking the time to produce these educational and entertaining videos. By the way, I've already made the roasted Chicken dish two times. Also, the chicken stock hasn't lasted 17 years at my house; we have used it up too fast. I have about a week's worth left in the freezer.

[@joekoscielniak8576]

I love a good, fresh made soup. For sure, we are one generation away from losing the every day common skills needed to make good, nutritious common people foods. That's not to say that everything you make is common, it's not. But potato soup is simple, unpretentious and approachable from any vantage point. The possibility of losing these cooking skills makes your efforts of showing, step by step, food preparation in a simple but detailed way so very important! I knew a man, an old man from Canada, some 23 years ago, who was, as a child, in the Polish concentration camps. He told me he survived as a forced laborer, working for a man who gave him one or two potatoes a day. 55 years later, he tells me he still loves potatoes in the form of potato soup. I made my best attempt at a creamy potato for him. Today, with your recipe, i am learning a better way, and if I had another chance to make it for that old man, I would gladly do so with this Potato Bacon Soup recipe! Thank you Chef!

Good afternoon Chef, the soup really looks gorgeous. One of our favourite soups. Me and my husband like thick creamy soups, not my son. Yet he enjoy soups a lot! the potato soup I make is very similar, never tried it with corn, bacon and potato pieces! Mine I cut carrot julienne, celery julienne, cook them separately, then drain it, add to the serving soup in bowl, carrot and celery spooned in the centre with the cream poured gently around the veggies. It really is a good soup. Just a variation, , I will try the corn, maybe a dash of cayenne pepper in the bowl for colour. Loved that gigantic mercer blender, now that's a blender.

Fabulous video chef! Thank you for your recipe, it looks delicious! Never apologize for being you. We come here for you and your knowledge. Could you possibly do a video on making fresh pasta and turning it into tortellini or ravioli?
