That's why I loved Anthony Bourdain. He was totally humble and always made it a point to reinforce to everyone that he was not a great chef. He always said he was a leader of men and relied on a talented crew but he was never a chef who came up with exquisite ideas and he couldn't understand how his friends that were those types of chefs could look at something so simple and create a masterpiece, a Rembrandt of food. His friends that were the worlds greatest chefs and visionaries were just as humble as him. It seems like a handful chefs become famous and develop an ego due to their celebrity status. Anthony always said he felt like a fraud. I really miss that guy he had such a huge impact on people who never met him yet we all felt like we lost a dear friend.

M. Pepin, one of the greatest Chefs of all time! Seriously. I'd give anything to sit down to a simple meal cooked by him, say an omelette or scrambled eggs...it would be flawless and utterly sublime. A man who knows how to cook the most fabulous and complex you would ever eat, but could also make you the best damn hotdog you'd ever have and do it with with as much love and compassion for cooking as the former. I used to watch him as a kid. Great man, great technique, and so down to earth. A master and guru.

Culinary genius 👏🙌

I love watching Jacques cook, you know.

Your videos are always wonderful learning tools for those of us who are widowers, and whose wives were such great cooks that we never thought about cooking. I can ALWAYS follow the directions in your simplest videos. Grazie, grazie!!

I have so much respect for his hands.

Hats off to the Chef. No better Chef than Chef Pépin. God bless you.

Love you chef. Hope you are doing well.

this is what great teaching looks like!

I've seen him take his finger and get ALL the white out of egg shell. He grew up during the Second World War in France and you had to make do with what you had. He's never forgotten where he came from. God Bless You!

When you look at the skills top to bottom, pastry, baking, grilling, etc.. He 's the greatest living chef.

His new videos are literally the highlight of my day 😍

Reminds of my grand-ma lol. I would brown the pieces on the wood grill.🔥 Smoke from fire was the norm for ages, more satisfaction!👍 You can also roast the vegetables (& optionally peppers) on the grill.

Thank you chef!

Mon premier chef de cuisine 🙂, deja a l'age de 6 ans je regardai attentivement les emissions avec mr Pepin..... qui ma appris a faire de magnifiques omelettes. Et depuis cet age ,les techniques culinaires se sont toujours graver dans ma conscience. Merci Jacques , d' un cousin Acadien qui t'apprecie beaucoup

That's how I do my winter cooking all in one pot on the wood stove love it

Favorite true Master. I was watching him long before the internet.

We used to make this every few weeks when I was a kid. Lamb breast was readily available back then. Now the markets here are offering only lean meat these days. I would take lamb breast over boneless skinless chicken breast or pork loin any time.

I like him so much! Realistically, we’re all gonna put the pieces of lamb in the pan and “make” them fitting brown. Pepin, “I’m going to turn them anyway”. Yep we all are, thanks Jacques.

This is the soothing asmr I didn’t realize I needed

He makes everything look easy to cook and delicious!

Who could possibly thumb down Jac Pepin? 🤷🏼‍♂️😤😤

Looks very good. I see the cooking time is shorter than most stews and I would imagine that is because the rib meat is tender enough and will be eaten off the bone. I will try this and probably add a little red wine.
