    This Guy!!!!!! where do I start, I never leave comments firstly, not only does he give a very concise fool proof approch he stops to teach techniques and departs other pearls of wisdom (white, pepper, to chopping basil) all I can say is BOOM! Thank you can't wait to watch your other videos chef.

    I couldn't imagine why it would take 38 minutes to demonstrate how a salade niçoise is made, but Chef Jon-Paul used this classic dish to teach a huge amount. So much information, so clearly, calmly and joyfully explained. For example, I learned proper grip of a knife long ago, and have seen it repeated over and over, but never knew why it was correct. There are so many techniques here for improving the way to prepare vegetables, tuna, dressing -- all with the background that lets you understand why these techniques made sense. Let me add that I'm an amateur, and never felt condescended to, that the techniques were out of my league, or a moment if those 38 minutes were wasted. Thank you, Chef!!

    This guy is my hero. I worked in kitchens but never was inched and taught knife skills, I know to curl the finger tips inwards to protect but the more I try I over concentrate and instead of paying attention to my fingertips I focus on the knife to try and make it vibrate at a 100miles/hour. Which many times made me move the holding hand out of the way but my finger tips would stay in place holding the veggie and not moving backwards from the knife coming at them. Was never hurt badly but it made me fear the knife. Now when he's cutting the celery at that angle....I have a protective cutting glove now, I will take months or years but I want to be able to safely cut at that angle like he is chopping that celery at around 21:00 give or take a few seconds.
