  1. Jacque casually blowing my mind with that large stem removal technique. I just got a large batch of various greens yesterday. I'm trying this! Why didn't I think of it!?

  2. I could watch Chef Pépin slice that garlic, on loop, endlessly. Thank you for decades of joyful cooking!

  3. I like how he points out the change from when he worked kitchens to the current mode and how much more flavour you get now.

  4. If I stuck my hands in that pan like that,I would have been flinching like a doctor checking My reflexes with a rubber hammer. Not only is he a Legend,He has Hands of Steel.

  5. I’d love to meet Jacques but I wouldn’t shake hands with him. Way too much risk of asbestos exposure.

  6. Had some beautifully cooked spinach last night at the local restaurant and it was perfect, EXCEPT they added red pepper flakes so it was spicy. I don't think that improved it at all.

  7. Best I had was to the boil the spinach, and mix it with fresh garlic+sesame oil+soy sauce. I believe it's a Korean recipe.

  8. I’ve been sautéing spinach like this for many decades with the only variation that I don’t add butter but I do add fresh squeezed lemon juice at the end. Try it.

  9. Delicious, simple and healthy!
    Thank you for sharing your Amazing professional talent!

  11. I followed Jacques recipe on this one when he cooked the chicken thighs with garlic and spinach. Possibly one of the best and simple recipes to follow. Tastes fantastic and I pretty much have spinach this way all the time now. 😂Jacques is a great chef and his easy way of teaching gives you confidence to try different things in the kitchen 🙂

  12. Jacques you are A truly humble culinary master, i have been a consistent professional chef for 30 years, yet i learn something new and valuable in every episode, much thanks to you for sharing your immense skill, experience and mastery!

  13. First watched this gentleman on PBS while in the US about 25 years ago. Glad to meet him again, same trustworthy, friendly and pleasant manners in the midst of this upside down world of today. Thank you, Sir, for the pleasure of your company in your lovely kitchen!

  14. My mother cooked for sixty years for my father and our family. On our east Texas farm where almost all our food was grown. She was what I call an “intuitive cook.” Watching Jacque reminds me of her.

  15. Жак е олицетворение на радостта от приготвянето на храната, като споделя това с нас. Много години го гледам и още толкова бих го правила.
