After that amount of time, s/he knows how much of everything to add to a fine degree. After a few more hundreds of times s/he can reach for something and knows exactly how much will do it - and if it is salt - s/he tries to put in a little less until the final tasting.

He's just a master chef with great Charisma , and a lot of class, his video's are hypnotic

Jacques Pépin is such a treasure! I've been a fan of his for at least 30 years!

Thank you so much for watching. Many more to come!

Jacques - I watched you with my mom when I was a young boy. I had no interest in food or cooking. Now is a different story. Thanks for sharing all of your knowledge and passion.

I got to meet Jacques a couple of years ago as he was presented with an award during my daughters graduation from the CIA in the upper Hudson Valley area. What a wonderful man, I had asked if he could autograph one of his books I got back in the 80’s that I had brought to the graduation. He eagerly signed and wanted to talk but unfortunately an annoying woman watching over him took him away. I believe he is the best teacher and I’ve learned a lot from him. No one can slice and dice as fast as he can.

[@Mojojoe45]

@@patrickwilliams8646 very sharp ones. I've heard him say buy the best you can afford and will last a lifetime.

There's no one like Chef Pepin. Few can touch him. He is a professional on a different much higher level.

Jacques is a special kind of special.
