The Perfect Eggnog Holiday Cheesecake | Chef Jean-Pierre

[@rene230464]

I MADE THIS!!! and whow!! Never had anything like this. My kids think I am a super mom. Thank you Chef, as always, to perfection.

Hi what size pan did you use mine is 26.5 cm

[@Lovegun.]

My mum just passed away a few days ago, and I came across this channel. I was so glum and bummed out, but your pure gleeful, happy, friendly fun personality has cheered me right up. Probably sounds stupid but it’s the truth. You’ve brightened up my day, and I now know how to make a delicious cheesecake, which is my all time favourite dessert. Thank you Jean Pierre! Much love from Canada! X

[@karysmuh]

I’m sorry for your loss. May your memories of her bring you comfort.

Chef, As a follower of Emeril while he had his shows and I have found your videos are so superior to all of the cooking shows that I have followed. You are very entertaining and informative. Your sauces, recipes, and processes are fantastic. I think this cheesecake is the best of all of them, all of which are each terrific all by itself.

[@ChefJeanPierre]

Thank you 🙏

[@miriambertram2448]

Yes. Superior. Chef John and 360 food are also very good. I learn from chef John as I am learning here.

Right there with you. I used to watch Emeril Live religiously. Jean-Pierre has that same magic.

Dude is pounding pie crust with a Pam cap and got 3K likes and 10 dislikes. Then he smiles and metaphorically says "you don't like it, do whatever you want." Tells you how awesome and real he is. Haha. Love this channel and love you Chef. Thank you for enthusiasm and passion.

[@LesaBear612]

He gives 6 different ideas for liqueur to put with the raisins, but is stymied for anything other than apple juice. MY kind of chef! Love you, JP.

[@esstown]

Ya, right, apple juice. That is just not happening in my house, lol.

[@MisdemeanorThoughts]

For me, it isn’t about what you’re baking or cooking. It’s about witnessing your genuine enjoyment and passion for what you do. When I cook for my family, no matter how hard or miserable a day. A good, flavorful, hearty meal always makes it worthwhile. Thank you for your desire to pass your wisdom to the next generation. Your joyful attitude is forever infectious. Always a pleasure, my friend.

[@suzz1776]

Exactly!!! I could watch him explain how paint dries and I would watch the whole video. Lol. His love and passion for cooking is infectious!!!!

[@letegabriel2721]

Agree

[@miriambertram2448]

When I had a family i used to love cooking. Now I live by myself and got lost in nothing in terms of food. Chef Jean-Pierre is reigniting my interest. At 71 I'm actually going to make a remoulade which I now discover is a Louisiana or French tartar sauce LOL and lots of other stuff just because it's fun

[@wendyfay16]

I can't even cook as I have a difficulty with my hands ... but I try to watch just one thing, then I'm still binge watching an hour or more 😅 later! I agree 👍 that it's that he's not only passionate about what he's cooking, but he's also passionate about sharing his amazing tips and tricks that he's learnt along the way! Remember that in one of his videos he said that he'd started his apprenticeship at age 14! What an absolute treasure he is! Oh how I adore his personality as well as his fabulous sense of humour along the way! Had he not become a chef, he'd have made an amazing comedian! However I think that it's his passion for what he's teaching while cooking, that infuses his humour in with his teaching! 👋

[@MikehMike01]

No millennial BS that’s why

[@barbosborne1]

I'm a new friend!! can't get enough of Jean-Pierre. He makes me laugh and smile. I, also, new to low carb or NO carb, but I still get great cooking ideas. PLEAE, Chef, don't retire from here!! Thank You!

[@HomelightRealtyAZ]

I am keto too but I still find excellent content with the Chef. Once you are on low/no carb for awhile its not that hard to adapt the Chef's recipes to it.

[@mike1968442]

Its very easy to modify items to keto. I do it all the time.

[@wam0357]

Thank you, again, for showing us the WHOLE process of getting the nut crust to its desired stage. No cutting away, and always stopping and showing us with your hands (squeezing the processed nuts in your hand with a close up for one) and giving us actual knowledge of basic skills like getting orange zest which i will use every time i need it. (My mom always gave recipes that did not truly give me a chance at succeeding because she would write, "add enough liquid to make it right'', or vague descriptions of desired results.) I wish I had you as a teacher or mentor when I first started cooking 40 years ago.

[@margaretfriend7208]

Just sent grandson to store for ingredients and found the springform pan. Oh baby!!!!❤

[@Batvolle]

How did you like it?

[@qkayaman]

Alot of work must have gone into releasing all these videos in one week, and they're all awesome. Hands down best chef and teacher. What I really like about chef JP, you can tell he knows exactly why he's doing what he's doing, because he's put thought into it, and from experience.

[@kevinmoor26]

One could spend a lot of time and money at the culinary school or just watch Chef's videos. Make no mistake, Chef Jean-Pierre is funny and entertaining, he is also the real deal.

[@barryphillips6658]

I've made this cheesecake a couple of times since you released the video a few months ago. Followed your recipe and instructions EXACTLY, and my cheesecake came out PERFECT every time. As for the rum raisin sauce: DELICIOUS! You mentioned in the video that you make a fabulous ricotta, limoncello cheesecake. I'd love to see a video on that!

[@ChefJeanPierre]

We’ll do it soon!

[@rendalconstantineau1680]

Also am looking forward to that one.@@ChefJeanPierre

[@slightlybetterthanaveragej6777]

Made this for my birthday. ( yes I made my own cake). Did the full recipe, rum sauce and all. That cake is as rich as a congressman! Great taste. Will definitely do this one again. Only complaint, it needed to be more "eggnogy", but that's all preference.

[@recordman555]

Very, very nice, Chef! I've made hundreds of cheesecakes during my career (past) as a restaurant sous chef and pastry chef. I wouldn't change a thing! My mentor gave me his NY cheesecake recipe which was given to him by a NY restaurant chef who actually charged $ for the formula. My mentor would have me press the batter through a Chinois before panning. Over the years, I developed several cakes, using that recipe as a foundation. I loved to use ready-made cookie dough (Otis Spunkmeyer) for the crust on many cakes. Of course, you must par-bake these first. ANYWAY - another great video! A quote from that old mentor regarding pastry: "Nothing beats your first thousand."

When you call the people who used the zester wrong "ding dongs," I started laughing because I was one of the "ding dongs,"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 you were speaking of, but thanks to you 👍, I now know better😌😌. You say some of my favorite phrases, " if you don't like it don't use it" or "if you don't like it, use something else."

I noticed no cracks on top of your cheesecake, that is a sign of a pro!! As a cheesecake lover, this segment really was a treat, thanks for such great content.

A nipple cover or a finger sleeve and here ... a cream or icing nozzle sleeve/cover. Fabulous.

This channel shows so many tips from a professional kitchen that I've picked up, like MEP and having a thermometer in the oven. Today, it was how to make a crust from nuts. And just look at that fabulous camera shot at 29:26, where the delicious oils from the orange peels are being expelled. I think this would give a great flavor if done over the cake itself. I'd probably never make such a big cake, but have picked up some great techniques. Thanks again Chef J-P.

[@kwnorton5834]

Have been making nut crusts for cheesecakes for a long time. Also use Mascarpone, gelatin, and sugar substitute (usually 100% stevia) to make it easier, faster and low carb. Sometimes use cookies to crumble for crust. Now view cooking quite informally - roughly measure, have fun, don’t take seriously. This one looks great.
