I love how Jacques taps his knife on the cutting board prior to cutting… it’s a skill I was taught by my mentors many years ago to remove any residual food on the knife and seat the knife firmly in the hand. Admittedly a minor detail but representative of a master chef 😊

[@victorha9923]

Jacque will always be relevant to me. Masterful chef with no pretense, just sharing knowledge. Will gladly watch/re-watch all his footage for inspiration

[@purleybaker]

No pretense is so well put. He doesn't try (or need) to impress anyone. Watching him cook has changed my cooking more than all of the others combined.

The Master Chef with a simple but tasteful appetizer

[@bigtonka82]

This might sound weird but I like making a tomato sandwich, a thick slice of tomato mayo on the top slice of bread with a little salt and pepper.

[@BlancheDeverOh]

I love it on an English muffin. One of my favorite sandwiches !

[@assoverteakettle]

Julia Child once said that one of her favorite things to eat was a simple tomato sandwich.

[@baconbap]

I have to agree with her.

[@albazamora1767]

Thank you Master Pepin!

[@gravlaxbob355]

A man who knows and loves his cooking, thumbs up!

[@patricklarry6645]

What a legend.

[@ScottALanter]

Only Jacques could take a tomato and bread and turn it into a five-star appetizer. Amazing at always, that guy.

[@dakiblabla]

Just him and the whole Catalan nation.

[@patricia7792]

It is such an honor to watch your beautifully inspired presentations Chef Jacque Pepin!🥖💕🌺

[@markust8904]

My sisters usually scoffed at my drinking of the tomato water, especially a tasty leftover of a viniagrette. Delicious. They have now learned.

[@jamesrussels2126]

Glad to see Jacques is still sharing his skills with us after all these years. I used to watch him and Julia Child with my Mom decades ago. Some of my best memories.

[@georgeneckrock7575]

Wonderful just to watch Jaques cooking! This makes me so happy.

[@sauravbasu8805]

Oh man, he is a poet

[@donnaterrell938]

Jacques is timeless...always appreciate his skill !

[@monazaki7227]

Monsieur Pepin never ceases to amaze me ... I love him!

[@-gina1114]

Thank you so much Jacques! I enjoyed today’s class, I always learn so much from you! I am so very grateful!

[@jefferyneu3915]

Simple, fresh, and beautiful!

[@katedelgrasso6148]

A true legend. An amazing chef and man.

[@jackiejanetm]

Well, that was a fabulous way to start my day!

[@ONLYGOODleftistisaDEADleftist]

I appreciate how Chef Pépin reiterates his frugal habits in not wasting food stuffs in both domestic and professional cooking. Young people today are far too wasteful and must be taught to conserve food, not to mention it saves money.

[@dingfeldersmurfalot4560]

Old people too. I've known a great many older people who do not deign to eat leftovers.

[@andabien3]

I always enjoy learning how to make a quick and easy appetizer. Thanks.

[@AnnieHyams-uo9pm]

Hi @ Jacques peppin This Is One Of My Favourite Recipes Your Recipe from Spain 🍅 Tomato Toasts Which Is So Delicious And Thank KZbin For Showing This Beautiful Recipe Again @Jaques Peppin Thank You So Much For Sharing Your Beautiful Recipe And Video @ Jaques Peppin 👍👍😀👍👍🍅🍅❤️❤️

[@beegee22]

Delicious. Must try this one! 👍

[@LazyLifeIFreak]

Simple, elegant and tasty. Quick to boot!

[@pauloamw]

Stunning.

[@Blublod]

Mini “Pa amb Tomaquet” (Pan con Tomate) without the garlic!

[@algini12]

Not a fan of raw basil. Not a fan of olives, calamata or otherwise. But put them together on these tomato toasts and it's the bomb. When Chef Pepin gives you a combination, it never goes wrong. I learned decades ago never to bat an eye on his combinations. It's going to be simple, and it's going to be delicious.

[@DS-bg9fl]

Simply the best!

[@konstantinivanov1986]

Anyone that hasn't tried this they will be amazed.

[@gruntod9171]

[@easybreezy9666]

French chef Spanish inspired recipe. “ welcome to American masters at home”

[@tigerteff015]

Always a pleasure to watch. Perhaps a little crushed garlic on top for me.

[@lluisa03]

ay pepin cuanto trabajo te has tomado!! hacer pan con tomate como lo hacemos en Barcelona es muuucho mas sencillo i el resultado mejor, pero gracias por el intento 🤗

[@gidget8717]

Hmmmm, he did say it was his tomato toast not that he was recreating what he had in Barcelona, so...😒

[@luluc.5820]

Y como sabes que el resultado es mejor si no has probado su versión?????

[@jml4774]

100% making this today.

[@slipperynips760]

The light is gone from his eyes . But I understand and still love him

[@JonnySublime]

Still doing what he loves, simmer down.

thx

[@senseofawemusic]

I wish I could go to eat at his house :-)

[@ZioI3ello]

Bruschetta!

[@dakiblabla]

Where did he find a baguette in Connecticut? I never succeeded.

[@KL005]

ALLONZ Y

[@bldmyamean8352]

No fresh mozzarella? For shame.

[@stowasser11]

No garlic???

[@joanm.2987]

Not bad, but it is more alike to Italian bruschetta than the Catalonian style. However, it is your Pepin’s style and nothing to discuss. The Catalan style is much simple and easier usually with larger slices. If with baguette bread, then two pieces cut along. Never basil nor olives; usually nothing, or as much some ham or anchovy with drops of good olive oil. As simple as that: the Catalan pa amb tomaca.

[@jean-paul7251]

American?....but your French?!

[@seanleith5312]

His cooking is obviously good, but his English pronunciation is as bad as it was 30 years ago. I see a lot of people like this, why?

[@TheRealGnolti]

What do you mean? I understand every word he says.

[@seanleith5312]

@@TheRealGnolti Yes, I understand every word he said too. But listen to him is like walking in the water with a lot of seaweed, it is not a good feeling.

[@TheRealGnolti]

@@seanleith5312 Your description sounds rather subjective. For example, I don't mind seaweed. And of course, "good" and "not good" feelings as they relate to how someone speaks (especially if, as you agree, you understand them) is even more vague.

[@baconbap]

Okay Karen.

[@TheRealGnolti]

@@baconbap You are clearly ashamed of yourself, and it shows.
