Jacques Pepin's Catfish Ratatouille | Today's Gourmet | KQED

[@J3TF1RE]

Jacques is a bit of a hero of mine. He was so ahead of his time with regards to technique and his presentation style is wonderful, especially compared to the headache inducing, high energy style of most of the celebrity chefs today. He’s taught me so much. Happy Cooking!

[@lawrencebuckland8779]

Total class: weaving cultures via food, language and history. What a personable chef and man!

[@videoman10]

Jacques Pepin is the first infotainer: he provides information through cooking techniques and ways to cook with entertainment. Always a pleasure to watch one of his videos.

[@LinkRocks]

Julia Child was the first to do that, but yes Chef Pepin is one of the earlier celebrity chefs and is a great teacher to this day.

[@videoman10]

I've heard a little bit about Keith Floyd and yes he was more comedian than serious chef or cook.

[@pontevedra660]

These old shows are full of heart...... Merci Chef Pepin.

[@michaelhenault1444]

Merci encore Jacques

[@neo8802]

I am always learning when he speaks.

[@jameswilliamjones]

The real treasures for me are watching him handle ingredients. Such economy of motion.

[@ryanmcallister2321]

These videos are so calming and enjoyable, especially after a long day.

Greetings from southcentral Texas USA 🇺🇸: Fabulous! Thank you, Master Chef Jacques Pépin. Again, thank you.

[@michelleharkness7549]

Greetings: wishing you a blessed happy wonderful day

[@michelleharkness7549]

Greetings: fwiw , what I find extremely impressive about this amazing 😉 meal is that all but a few of the ingredients of the various dishes are available for purchase at relatively low cost, besides being healthy , colorful and full of nutritious vitamins! The steak 🥩 appears to be a special treat and the dessert 🍮 is absolutely incredible. These are culinary creations which are great looking and which I would be very proud to serve to any and all of my family and guests. This video made me very very very happy 😃 because it is so very very outstanding.

[@michelleharkness7549]

[@gigidodson]

Where i live in the Willamette valley Oregon, there are tons of Filbert orchards. Filberts only grow in certain climates. Here is one of the best.

[@jeff32276]

A true master at work here.

[@paulcilluffo]

Class all the way all your chefs should watch he is totally class all the way

[@konstantinivanov1986]

How does he do it. He is spot on with everything. The absolute pro. No one can even get close.

[@jody024]

Watching this legend at work shows us why Anthony Bourdain (a legend himself, RIP) absolutely loved him. The skill and pace is next level stuff.

[@davidmatke248]

That garlic never stood a chance

[@TartanJack]

My wife has an unnatural aversion to catfish. And while she's never had it, she would love carpaccio I am going to make this meal for her and only after she says how much she loved it will I reveal it was catfish!

[@analuisatortolero4974]

My Master Jacqes Popin's 👏💐

[@at-ge5te]

I love watching jaques destroy a clove of garlic. I can’t get the rocking technique to save my life

[@messey12]

I didn't even have breakfast yet, what's wrong with me?

[@GregTally]

5:52 they don't teach these kinds of clever basics anymore

[@robthomas5827]

Ratatouille is a really extra fancy word for sauteed vegetables.

[@alainprostbis]

not really for the French...quite the opposite even

[@mikehammond7277]

Can you imagine two people getting married with the names of Basil and RoseMary? Maybe they would name their daughter Sage.🤔🤷‍♂️
