I’ve been making fish & chips for over 40 years, taught by my mother who was born in Glasgow Scotland where F&C is a food group of it’s own essential for life. This recipe is the absolute best and comes out perfect every time. The only substitute I make is to swap the Creole seasoning with my own blend of Old Bay, Cayenne, smoked paprika, dry thyme, and dry parsley. Thanks again chef Jean-Pierre…..keep ‘em coming!!!

Dear chef everyone in my family can cook but me I've been watching cooking shows on public television all my life and I'm about to turn 60 I couldn't cook to save my life but since I found you and your classes you've given me the confidence with your teaching that I can not only do it but I can do it well and not only are you the best chef I've ever seen on TV and educational and I love the way you show mistakes and I love your humor it's like you're part of my family I haven't tried one of your recipes yet but everything in me tells me I'm going to turn into a good cook before I die and it's all thanks to you you are my favorite chef hands down I have five chefs in my family love them all but you are the best because of all of what you bring not like those high pollutant chefs that don't let mistakes be seen and they make it seem like everything is so hard nothing really can be done at home you're the total opposite with you I know I could cook and for that I thank you please keep doing what you're doing be yourself as always and you're following will grow and I'm your number one thank you chef the sincere gratitude Sandra Lynn Richter of Port Charlotte Florida. Oh chef by the way I have one major problem I've never been able to afford any of the kitchen essentials. I'm not what you call a person with the means it takes to have the essentials in my kitchen and I wouldn't begin to know how to substitute if you have any ideas on how I could substitute the essentials I greatly appreciate your help. All right bottom line I'm very very poor but I don't want that to stop me from learning how to be a good cook so how do I acquire the necessary means to start my great cooking adventure without said needs? I've checked out your store and I can honestly say I can't afford not one thing like a thermometer any of the things you use I don't have I do have two whisks not very good but it's a start. So if you know how I can get the essentials second hand I'd appreciate it because I really want to follow you and every recipe that you're doing. You really are the only chef that I totally understand and can follow every step of your recipes and that excites me and makes me so happy. So I'll slowly go to thrift stores and the yard sales and try to acquire the necessities can you send me a list of the essentials please? I know I shouldn't do this but I'm going to give you my phone number an email just in case you have the time. No chef has ever impressed me I don't get impressed easily but to me you are a superstar and I appreciate you thank you so much for giving me the hope and courage I believe I'm going to be able to and it's only things to you. My name is Sandra Lynn Richter I live in Port Charlotte Florida my phone number is 941-585-1454 and my email is. slynnr62@gmail.com if you ever have the time to reply it would put me on cloud 9 and give me a natural high. Again thank you so much for being you best chef I've ever seen. Truly your fan sincerely Sandy

He takes the time to explain every detail in terms that anyone can understand, along with why things are done certain ways. I’ve watched many of his videos, and every one of them is amazing. When he makes a mistake, he says so, and then proceeds to show how to fix it, if possible.

Great job, Chef! I pat the filets completely dry, then salt and pepper and put into the fridge while getting the sauce and other things ready. When ready, I put the filets in flour to lightly coat (you recommended using tapioca or corn starch) to initially coat. Then My batter is 50/50 flour and cornstarch itself with 12oz beer (batter thickness as well as color is personal preference). I like a THICK batter and crunch. This one is thinner and runny. Mine is not. Again, personal preference, but for the folks out there, just use less liquid (beer) and thicken up for the batter if you want a thicker and crunchier sauce). Enjoy!

I love the care Jean-Pierre takes over his French fries. In English fish and chip shops the fryer will tip a load of potatoes from a bucket into a huge ‘chipper.’ Once the potatoes are chipped they are tipped from the same bucket which caught all the chips, as they were cut, straight into a deep fat fryer. I’ve grown up on fish and chips, but it’s nice to see him take so much care. These are definitely Michelin star French fries and battered fish. It’s a shame mushy peas didn’t make it to France. I thought the remoulade was mushy peas until he told us what it was.

As a retired English fish shop owner, it's interesting to see how this professional Chef does it, I was one myself before I left the catering trade and then really learnt how to do traditional English fish and chips, I bought a fish and chip shop from a lady who was retiring, she had been in the fish and chip business all her life, wanting to keep up her same high standard she agreed to stay on for a month to show me how to fry fish and chips, and learn I did, it was completely different to how I and Jean Pierre do it as a Chefs, also learning how to run a profitable business, which I had never done before, my wife and I ran that fish and chip shop till we retired, handing it over to a young (30s)couple who are still the present owners, also passing on what we had learnt to them, and remain good friends with, so it is left in good hands.

I doubt you could tell much of a difference between the two. but, if you can get fresh halibut as opposed to frozen haddock, then the halibut would be better. here we don't get haddock at all, it's an east coast thing but we are swimming in fresh halibut. my fish monger put it on sale recently for $15 a pound which is pretty good nowadays. when it goes on sale like that, I buy like 5 pounds of it and freeze it. it does freeze well and is almost as good as fresh. I only use it for fish and chips even though it's great in many other ways. chef jean here has a halibut with his fig balsamic vinegar that I would love to try, but then, I just think crispy beer battered fish and chips and it always sounds better.

hello. thanks for video. Best fish and chips butter is.... Budweiser in bottle (not can/tin! ) and plain flour. Nothing else! Gently fix together...fry immediately. Fryer will get messy... but this will most thin,crispy and light butter you will ever see. Must be Budweiser

Remember that you can do a Beer Batter with almost any Light Colored Beer or even LITE beer. Darker ones tend to taste different. ALso note- you can also use almost any WHITE fish, Haddock, Flounder, Scrod, Cod, etc.Just cut the pieces about the same size. However, make sure you have a way of getting the Temperature of the oil (IF nothing else a popcorn pops at about 350 degrees)- that is KEY. Too hot and it will burn and too cool and it will be OILY. Today you can get good Instant read Thermometers in the $20 range - makes a great gift.

I come from Dundee originally and the fish is straight out of the North Sea, so the Fish & Chip shops were so good especially Aberdeen, we always had a Fish Supper as they call them once a week usually on Friday.

"So now that I have a huge mess in here..." I just love you so much, Chef❤ You're the best. I'm feeling a bit homesick for Alaska. I once traded a local fisherman 15 gallons of wild harvested blueberries for a halibut that barely even stayed on my marble candy making table (larger than a door in your house). It took 5 of us 3 days to cut up and wrap and freeze that halibut monster. I used to trade for sockeye salmon, too. 60 sockeye per season. I got good with a filet knife!

That fish look amazing, I know what I'm having for dinner now but I dont agree with trimming the potatoes, the odd shaped chips that go really cripsy are the best bit =D
@dmdale35982 жыл бұрын
Overboiled potato wedges have small grainy tecture when you drain them. Fry them in a pan on top of the stove, until golden, on medium high. Add them back to the same pan to make golden brown. The oil, the tecture that comes from being overboiled. Spectacular and quick.
