Absolutely true well put
He is easy and slow for TV show and understanding. Imagine how fast he could be in a restaurant service in rush hour ! 😱😱 Masterclass !
just started watching this guy and I'm 44 years old lol.... how did I not know about him sooner. absolutely a master if his craft.
Good lord he knows his stuff. He is working on dessert as he works on main course. Making it look effortless. Us amateurs will continue with our baby steps and hope to emulate his greatness 😅😊.
I can watch him cooking on and on
Grace personified.
One of the things I love most about this man is he chops like I do. Coarse, or rough, just chop it and throw it in. Focus is on quality, not snobbery.
I love watching these older episodes for nostalgia, but also looking through a different lens than we would now. Like, California long grain rice vs bomba short grain, mixing seafood and non-seafood, and introducing raw fish to an apprehensive generation. Also, that eye shadow lol. It was a weird time.
So cool to see just how much he teaches about every dish and its ingredients, and not just how to cook it.

I'm not sure why but to me this is the ultimate home family meal. Just something so warm and hearty about it.
I love Jacques and I''ve been a fan of his from Day One. I still use all of is tips n my own meal preparations to this vey day, several decades later. ONE thing I was a bit surprised about in this particular clip though was when he transitioned directly from handling the raw chicken to touching the figs and then other elements of the meal preparation without first washing his hands (he did wipe them however) which is something I learned about even as a KID (I'm now 64!) from my grandmother long before I even saw Jacques on television.

I agree, and not just Jacques, ive seen many prominent chefs do the same thing. Ive always thought you cant touch anything after touching raw chicken due to risk of spreading the bacteria

If you watch closely there's a jump-cut edit at the 3:02 mark. It is well done, as you'd expect from a production like this, and does a very good job of keeping the flow and appearing to remain "live" but he's drying his hands from washing them, not from touching the chicken. I've noticed that shows today emphasize hand washing (as they should) but in these older cooking shows they edit out the non-cooking components for time.

@@kjdaughe I disagree. In the shot of him placing the chicken in the pan he’s holding the plate where they were resting. In the next shot, he is placing the plate down. There is no passage of time, they are just different shots one after another

@@flarica64 I agree with you, I just have to assume I was throwing my two cents in regarding whether Jacques did or did not wash his hands in the video. I don't think it really matters that he didn't, the food he cooked here probably wasn't eaten.
With all due respect and humility to the absolute and coolest master chef who has taught us all so much and has been in the kitchen for centuries... This is not a paella. This is an arroz con cosas, and with many questionable ingredients cooked in the wrong container with the wrong techniqes and wrong handling. This is not an opinion. Paella is a specific dish made a particular way. This would no doubt be a delicious arroz con cosas, if it were correctly cooked in a paella pan, but there are dozens of incorrect techniques and ingredients in this paella for it to be considered a paella. I'd still be honored to eat any of his scraps. He is old school, and this video was made a long time ago for a late 80's American suburban audience.
6:06 Magnificent!
IN MY VIEW Making Paella is a dish myself a many others want to make but never make it. It looked too complicated. The simple way Jacques Pepin puts it together shows me it’s not that difficult after all. This is going on my dinner party menu list. Crusty bread, a bottle of with a little fruit & cheese dish in the side is a dream coming true.

As a Spaniard I can tell you that's a totally wrong way to make paella. Neither the ingredients nor the technique have nothing to do with a paella. I can recomend this other video from the German TV: kzread.info/dash/bejne/lq1l0Zmxis3Qkrw.html
Was that a lawnmower that attacked that Onion? My word, the knife speed.
So wonderful to have these episodes on youtube! Thank you KQED! Jacque Pepin is the greatest - everything he does looks so effortless and delicious.
Dear KQED, I love these old episodes! Can you also start bringing us Jacques Pepin's Kitchen: Encore With Claudine! I loved watching that show back in the day, and it was adorable how he was teaching Claudine how to cook!
Best "celebrity" chef. No vanity, just simple teaching.

Such amazing and wonderful shows. I will never forget the first time I saw this and thought "who is this guy? He really knows what he is doing!" To think that he mostly did all that in 20 something minutes... a few tv tricks but mostly from start to finish.
I love Chef Pépin. In fact, one time I was cruising on the Oceania Riviera cruise ship while he too was on board and was in my painting class. If I had seen this video before that time, I would have taught Chef Pépin how to pronounce 'paella' correctly. Watching this video, I couldn't believe that a great chef like him was mispronouncing the word.
Love Jacque Pépin.

The GOAT
When I was in the Navy I had some oyster stew before we left port in Japan for the states. We immediately found ourselves in a storm. I haven't eaten an oyster since. I cannot countenance eating shell fish of any kind. Sushi? No way.
If you have the closed captioning on it's humorous. 45,000 Crocus becomes 45,000 carcasses!
Such a huge part of my childhood was spent watching Jacques on the TV with my mother, and now watching this, it takes me back, especially now that she is gone. This brings me to a very happy place and brings me such wonderful memories. 💜💜💜💜
What a legend
Knife skills!
I'll always prefer this to the cooking competition shows that are now on TV. I've watched Jacques for many years and he is not only a great chef but an equally adept teacher. I like to watch Lidia too because she shows you how to make delicious non-gourmet meals. PBS also used to have a series called Great Chefs (of - name a city) and it was interesting and featured nice guitar background music by Charlie Byrd. It's difficult to find such informative cooking shows outside of PBS and Create TV, also part of PBS.
I'm loving this
Simply beautiful🙏

KQED....... What an iiritating attempt of a video of the great man! Your subtitle box covers the food and pots and pans and one is left with staring at a monologue. Pls check your own work before posting it.
As much as I like Jacques and his other shows, but knowing how to make a Paella, living in Spain, and seeing his hesitation, he knows it is not a Paella, no one in Spain uses "Californian long grain rice". Not back then in the times, not today, nor Provence herbs, no Thyme, and certainly no Campari or Anis. What is going on?
