There is a reason why Jacques still has a following and people continually learning from him. He doesn’t swear, yell, scream or have any mock outrage at something or someone or carry on about ingredients. An absolute gentleman and seems like an all round good bloke. His knowledge and the way he teaches gives confidence to the average person like myself, to try something and enjoy cooking.

There are an awful lot of cooking shows to choose from nowadays but I think this is the guy you wanna watch.

Anyone doubting Mr. Pepin's skill at both educating and cooking must listen to my testimony. Everyone in my family and close friends think I am truly a great "self taught" cook/chef.....the truth is... anytime I want to make something elegant....I just find it on one of Jacques' KZread presentations, and it is a hit. If you want to eat simply, deliciously, with a touch of elegance...here is where you can.

Thank you Jacques. I’m learning how to cook. I’m not the greatest at cooking. My food often tastes horrible but I made your mother’s Soufflé and it was absolutely delicious. You helped me because I can watch you on video. I followed along. It works better for me to learn by watching rather than reading a cook book. Thanks again.

​​​@@MemoryLane77852 You can't read that it's a fast and easy souffle that anyone can make? If people want technical perfection they will go to culinary school or pay top dollar at a restaurant, rather than watch this beloved humble Master share something he loves with humans that have more respect than you.

I am reading his autobiography right now. His childhood would destroy most kids alive now, but he overcame his obstacles and did it joyously.

This must be prerecorded. He is so put together. I’m sorry for your loss. I wish I could hug you! Thank you for all the wonderful easy no fuss recipes.

I made this. I didn't have chives, instead I used green onions. I didn't have gratin, instead I used an 8" square Pyrex glass baking dish. It was very delicious. Thanks, chef Jacques.

I love how he doesn't waste a drop of anything, was taught to clean out the eggs with his fingers, etc...a sign of tough economic times when he was growing up in rural France.

Jacques Pepin - one of the best chef in the World ☝️👍👍👍 Old school, many knowledge, many secrets, etc. Thank you, mr. Pepin.

I made more than 30 of these in little half cup individual souffle molds. Works perfectly. For a big birthday party as appetizer. A big hit. Put 😊them on a paper doily on coffee cup saucers and passed them out in the party with little spoons. I had to haunt the Goodwill to buy all the little ceramic oven proof cups.

Love you. Thank for all you do. Prayers being sent. Happy Holidays

Much love to you and your family from the Netherlands in these undoubtedly very difficult times, Mr. Pepin. You are such an inspiration, not just in cooking but in composure and attitude. I wish you and your family all the best.

Dear Chef please accept my condolences about your wife. You’ve always been my favorite and my mentor. I’ve met you twice in San Francisco. Thanks again to you for this soufflé show and recipe. Not separating the eggs was an eye opener. Mothers are always right!

Dear Jacques, I have made this twice now and will make it again and again. Thank you. Your mother would be proud of me. Blessings.

Congratulations for your Life❤ My late Dad adored you! He even had bought a French tool kit for garnishing from watching you on TV, that he left for me, cos I'm a great cook. Thank you for your years on TV. ♡It has enriched my life♡ And my Dad thanx you too!

Your mom was a smart lady. All of this separating eggs stuff is for the birds. It's absolutely not necessary. This recipe is fabulous! My family loves this soufflé and they ask for it all the time.

LOL Tip #57 , there's so many Chef secrets or old Rules that get broken all the time. "Nobody told me I couldn't do that, but I did it and it worked out great".

Watching an absolute master work is like watching someone walk. It looks so effortless and unconcerning. Then I try to do it and I feel a bit like a toddler. Nothing but respect here.

My mother b. 1923 and her mother b. 1899 and my father b. 1913 always cleaned out the shells and made sure I did too. I have it you when I moved out!

This reminds me of Georgio Locatelli. He was demonstrating the chef's way of making risotto, in a long forgotten TV show. While doing that he told the story of how his nonna made risotto, the best risotto he had ever eaten, of course. "You cook the rice, add the butter, then beat it with the stock", "Why is that so difficult?" (my summary of his nonna's description). This demo by the great man has gone straight into the Save folder of course.

Yes, your mother would certainly be very proud of you.

Yeah, I made this last week. Lasted maybe 2 hours. Just kept going back for more. Absolutely delicious. Gonna make it again tomorrow, only this time I have another group of white cheeses I am going to use. Thanks again Chef. When I told my wife what I was going to make, she said what?? Well, she helped me make it and she is confident she can make one as well . Just amazing experience.

He is the best chef I’ve seen. Keeps things simple and delicious, plus he is adorable!

The last of a great generation.

I've seen a souflee like this at a restaurant. Using whole eggs allows it to keep it's shape, it doesn't deflate as much

I never would have thought it would work so well to make a “soufflé” without separating the eggs, but it looks delicious! Will definitely try it this way, too.

I have always been afraid of soufflés until I saw this. Now, I can’t wait to try this recipe! Thank you, Chef Pepin.
