I'm just totally enamored with his videos. To see someone who loves their work as much as he does. It's just so beautiful

[@melindadouglas1673]

I am too! He calms me down. I just love him!

[@jaxtondax785]

i guess im asking the wrong place but does someone know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb lost my login password. I love any tips you can give me!

I worked with a famous French Chef during my lifetime in the culinary business, and my memories with him were not pleasant. Watching the esteemed Chef Pepin does my heart good. People like Chef Pepin is the reason why I became interested in this art, and watching him in these videos, at his age is truly blessed. I am 66 years old, and I still love my profession, when and if I am blessed enough to reach Chef Pepin's age, I hope to still be cooking this way.

[@nubisor5042]

Loves their work and also is an expert at what they do. Most of the people cooking on television now don’t actually know how to cook.

[@reneemulherin2899]

Watching Jacques cook always reminds me of my mother. We used to watch him together on the weekends. She loved his accent and his calm and patient manner, not to mention his food. She has been gone almost 30 years now, but she is often by my side when I am in the kitchen. Thank you, Jacques, for many wonderful and delicious years.

[@grahamraymer807]

Now I am remembering cooking with my dad.He has been gone almost as long.What glorious memories.

[@Galdorik]

What a beautiful post, and what a lovely compliment for Mr Pepin, who always says that cooking and food bring people together. Blessings sent your way mam

[@Deerector]

such a beautiful comment. God Bless you and your mom. She did a great job with you.

[@robertk3918]

He had a major car wreck in the late 60's/early 70's and nearly lost his arm and was told he may never walk again. It never stopped him, as you can see. He is a gift to us all. My inspiration for becoming a chef!

He unmolds the omlet then puts it back and repeats right side up without losing anything...Like a boss.

Jacques is the man. He'll be still crushing it in the kitchen at 90 yrs old

Hes almost there haha

@di C Hahaha my husband loves when they banter too lol

[@2006glg]

This man helped inspire me to become a chef. Before I went to culinary school twenty-two years ago, I watched him and Julia on PBS. This man taught me how to really enjoy something as simple as eggs as a solid meal. To this day, nothing satiates me as much as a well prepared scrambled egg with herb fines and a tear off of a toasted baguette,if I'm feeling really fancy some fresh grated parm cheese, any time of day or night.

[@talyrath]

I wonder how many times Jacques Pepin has warned people to break their eggs on a flat surface. I'm thinking thousands.

[@steveg8322]

I suppose that falls under the heading 'A word to the wise...'

[@The314moses]

EVERY time!! Lol

[@wesleyburke7514]

@@steveg8322 I agree and I always crack my eggs flat.

[@christinezerkel46]

That's the way I do it. Cause he taught me how

[@markdemell3717]

He is right.

[@all-gone]

Jacques Pépin is a national treasure. Keep putting on your apron and having fun in the kitchen Mr. Pépin, you are loved!

[@jtirello3_111]

Jacques Pepin is the Master. I actually got to talk to him on TV during a PBS fundraiser in 1999. Coolest 37 seconds of my life! I spent many Saturday afternoons watching and learning from him on TV in the pre-Food Network days when shows like his were all about the cooking and the technique. Real food television. For me, it was like going to school. I learned something every time. “The Apprentice: My Life in the Kitchen” is an amazing story of a true legend and a great read. Happy Cooking!

[@antonypaquette3092]

This is currently my favourite meal. If chef Pepin never did another video, I'll forever remember him for this one.

[@elizabethshaw734]

You and Julia taught me to cook. Along with Madeline and a few others but mainly you and Julia. On Saturday morning when everybody else as a child watched cartoons I watched PBS cooking shows and by 8 years old I was cooking complete meals using what I learned from you. My whole life I have wanted to meet you to say two words and I will say them here. Thank you! :-)

[@billb5690]

Jacques and Julia.....the King and Queen of all Chefs

[@pikepunk1]

When I was young, my mother had "The Joy of Cooking" on the shelf. As I've gotten older, I understand what that means now. I enjoy cooking and eating so much now, I hardly use prepared foods. This is one more egg dish to add to the list of things to try. Thanks Jacques & PBS!

[@SouthwestNtive]

Of all the chefs I've watched over the years. I never tire of Jacques. Thank you Jacques.

[@TheSimonBrookes]

I could watch Jacques cook all day long!

Wow, when he talks about his wife I feel like I want to cry

I have been watching him for years. He’s still my favorite chef and I learned something new today.

[@camschuster5947]

He is literally proof that age is just a number. What an amazing life he has led, still passing on his wisdom.

[@paulpeterson4216]

My knees and shoulders beg to differ. However, his mental acuity is wonderful. I hope that mine remains as good for as long.

Is there anything better on a cold snowy winter's day than watching Chef Jacques cook with a hot drink in your hand ?

I watched him from the many years I lived in Washington state, he is a guru in his trade. Thank you.

Just like Spanish Tortilla. You can pick it up and eat it like a slice of pizza with a glass of wine or beer. Yum.

You cut him off at the end!

I also noticed that.

I've been watching Jacques Pépin since I was a kid. Now I'm in my 50s and still able to watch him on KZbin. God Bless him and his family on the loss of Gloria a couple weeks ago.

[@user8ZAKC1X6KC]

I did this recipe this morning for my wife. We both loved it! I think this will become a go to for our breakfast rotation on the weekends. It honestly took about as long as this video is to make. Including cooking time from start to finish we were eating in 20 minutes.

This is also a (north) German dish called 'Bauernfrühstück' (Farmers' Breakfast), except that we add some diced bacon to the potatoes and onions.

[@jessyalexander3985]

God bless you, sir. Many thanks for the great recipes you cooking you have given us throughout the years!

[@janbettens6625]

Jacques, I made this today for brunch. My potato was not as big as yours so I cut up 4 rounds of sweet potato (I think you call it a yam in the states). I had 3 left over roasted chicken wings small ones which would probably have been binned and as you have been educating us on waste not, I shredded and chopped it with a small leaf of spinach as well as the parsley and I can tell you it was fabulous. Thank you again.

[@tygerlily1700]
