Jacques Pépin's Secret to Tasty Pasta Fagioli Recipe | Cooking at Home | KQED

[@stevea8717]

That little bit of butter at the end is the trick

[@kqed]

💯

[@Kent-qo6xp]

My relatives were dairy farmers so we automatically do that. Lol

[@donnageorge2761]

@@Kent-qo6xp I have never done the butter addition, next time I make it I’m going to try it

[@joannaedwards6325]

A favorite bumper sticker - - - LIFE IS SHORT EAT MORE BUTTER

[@patriciasalem3606]

​@@Kent-qo6xpOne of the best gifts I ever received was when I was a ballet teacher in Wisconsin. My little student gave me a rustic wooden crate with butter from her family's dairy farm and a few oranges. Breakfast heaven!!!

My Italian grandmother (nona) once told me when I was very young I'll teach you how to cook just like me but if you're going to copy anyone else other than me make sure it's only Jacques Pepin! I was 10 yrs old.. im 50 now! I can't thank him enough

[@kqed]

A wise grandmother indeed.

[@venomf0]

Your granny was a real one michael.

[@lancelotdufrane]

Nice. I copy my Italian grandfather, but next to him,…. Jacques Pepin.

[@jeanineskitchen2607]

great story. love that your nona told you.

[@roquefortfiles]

Jacques is a national treasure. I have confidence in the kitchen now and it is entirely because of watching Jacques. I do my best to emulate him.

[@jeanniebrooks]

As Jacques got older, he was more inclined to make simpler dishes, more canned items, like beans, less meat, and simple country food. He relished being frugal and wasting nothing; it was almost an obsession. He talked a good deal about how he learned to be frugal from his mother and grandmother, and he seemed to be returning to his roots as a poor boy growing up in Provence. But during his heyday, he did make the finest of French dishes! He excelled at presentation and I’ve never seen anybody who could compare to Jacques knife skills! And what a generous and kind teacher he was! Still is! I love Jacques.

[@jeanineskitchen2607]

I agree . I didnt watch him when i was younger,but now I cook on here and I saw a few of his recipes and I tried his crab cakes,because he made it look so simple and unfussy. I made them and loved them. He is a legand and I watch him now ,often. So much to learn and he even makes that casual,not preachy. love him

[@madraven07]

This has become a staple in our house. I served a half size as an appetizer when guests came for dinner, and they thought they’d died and gone to heaven. Merci beaucoup, chef Pétain pour ces petites choses.

[@kqed]

Delicious. Thanks for watching!

[@glenbo02]

I love that he always mentions his beloved wife.

[@jeanineskitchen2607]

yes , it is very sweet ,you can tell he loves her and cooks many things for her

[@Johnny_Guitar]

Remember this, in real life, Chef Jacques Pépin and Chef Julia Child were BEST of friends going back all the way to 1959 and who TOGETHER not only established a 'Gastronomy Program' and together taught their program at the Boston University! And that will always be in the history books of which hardly not many can actually say!

[@jeanniebrooks]

No, Julia did not teach at Boston University Gastronomy program. Jacques had his own separate 30 year career as Dean of the International Culinary Institute in NYC, (originally the French Culinary Institute) but they did team up to establish a certificate program in Gastronomy at Boston University, (later to become a Masters program) where he also taught. He has referred to his 30 yr teaching career in several interviews, and has specifically spoken about teaching there. But I’ve not read anywhere that Julia ever was a teacher as Jacques was. Her teaching remained exclusively on her television shows. Jacques has spoken about his 45 yr close friendship with Julia.

[@LIZZIE-lizzie]

Only because you mentioned Boston I have to say I have the first cooking book from the first cooking school in Boston - Fannie Farmer - The Fannie Farmer School of Cooking. The book is from 1909 or such - not later and it is something! Talk about cooking from scratch and all utensils, etc, of the day! So, it seems Boston's the place for the great Chefs to come together -

[@georgesingleton3425]

I watched them in the late 70s, early 80s with my wife and kids.

[@jeanniebrooks]

Great accomplishment, but no, Julia did not teach at the Gastronomy Institute although she was involved in it’s creation. Julia was not a chef; she was a PBS cooking teacher/and tv personality, and a food critic and food columnist, and cookbook author. She became a famous celebrity, but she never was the fine chef that Jacques was. He was also a teacher at Boston University for 30 years, a PBS chef for multiple series, a prolific cookbook author, and was very involved in cooking and food, more so than Julia, though she was more famous.

[@jeanineskitchen2607]

great info. I knew they were friends,but not that their program was taught at Boston University. 2 amazing chefs.

[@yelnats61]

I love Jacques. The beans are cannellini. The stuffed pasta is cannelloni

[@chrisandersen5635]

He said in Fast Food My Way, don’t be afraid to use the grocery store as your sous chef. Every chef has a small army prepping everything for them. Chopping, slicing, dicing, mincing so they just come in and cook. Nowadays, Jacques says you can do the same. After a long day, but you have to feed the family. The dog. The cat.

[@piumisandarenu9110]

Chef Pepin loves butter so much it's adorable 🥺❤

[@sheltiepeas]

😂 so true ❤

[@DavidSzar]

He’s French :)

[@SeraphsWitness]

It ain't French cooking unless you toss butter on top at the end! haha

[@ursulathomas113]

What I love about Jacques’s show the most, he is about as old as me now, things are flying in the kitchen, bottles are open, etc., but the expertise is still there but relaxed. And after the awesome food is consumed, it will take forever to clean it all up but all in good time. ❤ from Oregon.

[@palaceofwisdom9448]

I really wish I had his knife skills. Finely chopping an onion in less than ten seconds would be great.

[@TheNumberTwelve]

@@palaceofwisdom9448practice, practice, practice, you can do it!

[@ursulathomas113]

@@palaceofwisdom9448I chop slow and carefully, it helps me to get rid of my frustrations 🙂.

[@LIZZIE-lizzie]

Our dear Jacques Pepin makes a 4 minute delicious video of a dish others take hours to make - and I would take his version over any! Thank you for Jacques Pepin ❤

[@m.theresa1385]

I love watching chef Jacques home cooking. Tasty hearty (yet economical) no waste meals. Delicious! So easy, you just want to follow along .

[@karrinwilley8079]

He's a Frenchman....the French are frugal people.

[@YD-uq5fi]

Jacques is still doing it at the age of 88! I am convinced that a love of cooking natural food is the answer. Too many people worry about keto, etc. A love of cooking foods from scratch supercedes that, since many chefs have lived past 90 and are competent enough to operate a kitchen without harming themselves. They eat plenty of French bread, pasta, rice, etc.

[@tommydinob]

[@saltychampion2518]

Jacque has always been a favorite in our House, Thanks Chef!

Another lovely recipe from Master Chef Pépin which is so approachable in its simplicity. Merci mille fois, Chef Pépin !

[@aflormo]

Thanks Jacques for all that you do, I'm always cooking your dishes to my girlfriend and we love it.

[@bertroost1675]

He has the best recipes, because they are relatively common ingredients for people who aren't professional cooks. When I watch most of his videos I say to myself, I am going to make that. With a lot of other people's videos I just say forget it when they start mentioning items that I never buy or even know what it is.

[@MetaWander]

Une fois de plus, la perfection en toute simplicité. Perfect for Fall!🍂Thanks KQED, Merci Monsieur Pépin, et à la bonne vôtre !🍷

Ce n'est pas un simple _'Monsieur'_ Pépin ordinaire, Jacques Pépin est le *Maître Chef de Cuisine!*
