Who else is here for the symphony? Jacque's voice is music for the soul.

You can tell how much he cares for his family. He continually mentions his wife, daughter, and granddaughter. I think it's the sweetest thing. Cooking with love! =)

[@julieenslow5915]

I love that he has spent 60 (or so) of his 83 (or so) years in the USA and he is still a Frenchman. We didn't spoil him! And what he has done for us is immeasurable!

I used to watch his show on pbs when I was little. He is the quintessential chef. He made cooking cool even before Bobby Flay or any of the celebrity chefs were famous. I wish he was still on TV.

Only drawback is my mouth is watering the whole time l watch, and l'm so hungry for His food afterwards. Would love like a Special show dedicated to the all the foods and desserts he has for Christmas and the New Year. Thanks for posting, l'm requesting the series video for my Christmas gift this year. Much love and admiration to Chef Pepin. Tom

I've been watching Pépin for months thinking I can't make half the meals he does because I do not have a processor. Then I dig around my kitchen and I find a Cuisinart mini-prep grinder. I couldn't believe it! My mum must've bought it years ago and forgotten about it. Time to cook.

Add salt after you crush it; it will make it even better. The salt breaks down the garlic.

@@Barrymacockkiner3050 Well, since I wrote that comment, I have come to the realization that _freshness_ is everything. If the garlic is fresh enough, it works just like he shows. (I tried and tried, and by golly, it works!) If the garlic is _not_ fresh ... can be very frustrating :)

It's always a pleasure to watch Jacques Pepin in the kitchen. I've been a fan for about 30 years. I'm not a professional chef but I have learned so much from this man over the years.. Not just about food preparation but the science of cooking and flavor. He's so amazingly intuitive.

+ldchappell1 , it's French cuisine. It's how it is done!

[@ldchappell1]

Marie-Aude Preau It was strictly French cuisine at one time but he's changed show formats several times to stay fresh and relevant with his audience. He's such an amazingly creative guy and he makes it look so effortless. He has class but he's also down to earth and very personable. You feel like you're alone with him in his kitchen and he's giving you a private lesson.

[@stndrds79]

I am told He is actually 90

[@pdnick]

I love Jaques because of his attitude, the guy has been a legend for as long as I've been alive and he's still humble. What other guy with his status would use a microwave to cook bacon? He does it because it works! Also I loved the bit where he was like "You know what I love? The corn flake." Then dumps a bunch of corn flakes into the choc/hazelnut mix. He cooks like I do, whatever makes it taste good...

[@jod6984]

He cooks the bacon like that because his wife taught him that. Gloria---he talks about her, and about his mother, often. Much love there.

[@kitkatkathee]

Jacques has been a master chef for over 50 yrs. I'm pretty sure he knows a hell of a lot more about cooking than you would. Thanks

Jacques Pepin is to cooking, what Pavarotti was to singing, what Olivier was to acting, and what Wright was to architecture.

[@InXLsisDeo]

It's not bland at all. The taste really comes from the olive oil (which he adds a lot, and he stresses it must be very good), the garlic, the anchovies and the cheese. The raw elements add a touch of freshness to the pasta.
