There are people that come into your life in the most unexpected and meaningful ways - Jacque is that person. As a child I was entranced by Julia Child's presence in the media as an eccentric personality who brought classic cooking techniques to the world via her own experiences while living in France. Watching her cook brought a new dimension into my life and opened my world to cooking as an artist- enter Jacque Pepin - here was a person that I could readily relate to, both as an admirer of Julia and as an adult who cooks for a living - and I've been a fan all of my life. Forty years later, I became a professional chef and the journey started with Jacque. His style, demeanor, enthusiasm and skill enthralled me as well as his casual delivery - you can do this, it's not really as hard as it looks, like anything it takes practice and repetition with a dash of passion. This person changed my life and I consider him one of the greatest influences for me as a chef and a person and a connoisseur of all things wonderful - thank you Monsieur Pepin, for everything - merci

Over quarantine I've gotten good at this. I've learned that butter will brown if you melt it at 400F or higher, so I have a laser thermometer and get my cheap nonstick pan to 385F. Butter goes in and boils off and gets foamy. Once there's no more water in the butter the eggs go in. The eggs need to be mixed very well by hand with a fork-- not with a machine or a whisk because you don't want air in them; it makes a big difference in how they behave when cooking and how they turn out. You don't really need to add milk or water to the eggs. I salt the mixture lightly because it's not in it long enough to make a difference. I use a rubber spatula to figure 8 in the center to open up space for the eggs to run into, and once or twice run it around the edge and fold the thin edge into the middle of the mix. As Jacques does here, you need to keep the pan moving the whole time, constantly shaking it so that the wet eggs on top are encouraged to run into the spaces made by the spatula and also to get them out to the edges of the pan to cook there. When the eggs are not wet enough on top to run anywhere, it's done. Anticipating the right moment to stop scraping down the sides and making holes in the middle is the difference between making an omelette and making scrambled eggs. If you wait too long it the curds will get too firm and the whole thing won't come back to omelette shape. So when the moment is right, and it's still wet on top but won't really run, you remove the pan from the heat and plate it like Jacques. It all doesn't take very long; it's about as quick as he does it here-- about 30-45 seconds. Gruyere is a good cheese if you want to add that; or also Boursin, which is a popular French garlic-y cream cheese sort of thing.

What a privilege it has been to see a true master demonstrating next-level kitchen skills honed over a lifetime of truly impressive dedication to excellence. Watching his knife skills is a quick reminder that this individual was trained by the best, not a wasted movement, efficiency being the dictator of the truly great. We all benefit from his direction on culinary matters, the French have just been on top of the food world since forever! And PBS made this excellence available to all that were interested, from Julia Child to Jacques Pepin, who is on the sidelines to assume the great role of educator for the masses. I mean no disrespect to Mr. Pepin, I'm sure he will continue as long as his health permits, thanks for demonstrating excellence!
