I absolutely love how humble he is, "It may get lumpy but just keep stirring it." or "Don't be afraid to put your emersion blender in there." or "This ham is fantastic its from Publix." He knows were not master chefs and are most likely just amateurs looking to spice up weekend dinners and he's not a snob to quick fixes and "cheats" to make our lives a little bit easier. He doesn't claim there's any one right way to do things and it makes me happy he's making high class recipes accessible to the average joe.

I've been a home cook for decades, learned from my mother (an excellent cook). Yet, I'm still learning and love how Jean-Pierre teaches us his hard-won knowledge in such a delightful way. There are several other cooking channels I follow, but this one and Refika's Kitchen are definitely among my favorites. Refika's is about Turkish food, and I'd say she's as joyous and enthusiastic as Jean-Pierre ... while being her own person. If you like humus, she's got the best recipe for this that I've ever found, fluffy and creamy. As well as delicious falafel and simit (a kind of Turkish bagel, only a lot more crunchy). Lots of work, but not complicated and definitely worth it.

I served this to my girlfriend for breakfast in bed, half way through eating she asked me to marry her. You are not just showing us how to cook, but how to Love. Thank you.🙂

I made this today as Sunday brunch for 4 people. I made the croque madam with sunny side eggs. Really good! A Recipe to keep for ‘17 years’…😀

The joy you bring to cooking is unmatched. You get your viewers enthusiastic about cooking, what makes you a great, great teacher.

OMG, I just saw this video yesterday and it had me salivating! Time to grab some ingredients after work. Merci, Jean-Pierre, for your time, wisdom and joy!

Chef Jean-Pierre, we fell in love with Mr. Crunchy sandwiches on our first trip to Paris in 1983. We have been making these at home for decades. Your recipe looks delicious, especially the brie! We spread some Dijon-style mustard on each slice of bread. We find that the acid cuts through the rich fattines. Also, we steep half an onion studded with 2 cloves in the milk along with a little grated nutmeg and a bay leaf. Not sure if its a better recipe, as you had requested, but it is delicious in its own right! Thanks for all of the great video demonstrations! We are sure its a lot of hard work, but clearly a labor of love.
