i have been a professional chef for 35 years and I still learn from chef Pepin. the man is kitchen royalty

There is not one cook on TV that knows how to create such perfect eggs. Peppin is a Master chef.

87 and he is still teaching. I enjoy these videos.

I’d assume the best teachers are those with a life of experience.

The love of my life recently passed....we watched Jacques Pepin together 30 years ago...and we bonded over the joy of cooking. I will forever love Jacques for all the happy memories he created for me. Watching him feels like home.

My heart melts when Jacques gets so much delight from egg-spinning. 💗🥚

I say when you have a passion for something, no one takes it away from you.I used to work with a pharmacy technician in Mount Sinai hospital where I still work till this day, and he was from Africa.He wanted to be a Doctor and his father was against that.He had to wait till his father died years later, and now he is living his dream as a Doctor.👍🏼

I think the 'kid' is Chef Pépin, at heart :) Merci Chef Pépin

Pepin is The Man. And even that underestimates him. "The kids love that!" he says. Yeah. I've got your number, Kiddo. You're the kid in the kitchen. And that's why your wonderful.

This is one of the most beautiful, thoughtful, straight-forward things I have seen in such a long time. No gimmicks. No tricks. Science and technique.

I don't know if he sees these comments. But he is one of the greatest cooking inspirations in my life, learned so much from him. What a legend! Thank you!

I have been cooking for 50 years, and my oldest son is a chef, yet I just watched this video and learned FIVE new things!!!! Chef Jacques is always a wonderful teacher and I appreciate this video!!! 🤗🥰

I love that he explains why things are done that way. Learned something new today!

Some are Pros chefs, some are Teachers, and many times, pros chefs are not teachers and vice versa. But once, very seldom, there comes along someone like Chef Jacques Pepin, a complete package .... Salute to a Pro Chef and a Fantastic Teacher!

@julespasquier337

I imagine it is because a chilled raw egg is a denser liquid than a warmer one, so will spread out less rapidly in the water, making for a tighter shape. And the vinegar is to denature the outer proteins of the albumen so it solidifies quickly. Why room temp eggs can also work is because it takes less heat to get them to solidify, so I imagine the options are purely effective based on other points in technique. Freshness of the egg I think is more significant but I could be wrong.

Ha! I can take the crayon that I mark my cooked eggs with out of the kitchen and take up egg spinning instead. So much information packed into this short video. Thanks Chef Jacques! It’s egg salad (on pumpernickel) today.

I worked as a line cook and a prep cook from the age of 15 until 20. I was taught all of these techniques, but never the science behind it. Love it.

Simply the best. I didn’t go to culinary school. I just watched this maestro. 😊🎶🔥🔥🔥

He’s simply the best teacher! He knows it all, but never acts like he’s THE trove of knowledge. He’s a treasure and I just adore him!! Decades of adoration 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻 I see his hands…I see how stiff he is and my heart breaks knowing he must wake up in pain and yet he gets up, he keeps going and I don’t know. Sigh. I’m sure he misses his wife but I’m also certain he knows his daughter and granddaughter love him too. I hate the idea of him being alone…there’s something about those hands. So strong and skilled, seeing his veins and the fragility belying so much dexterity it just wrecks me. His elbows and shoulders too. I tell myself he’s okay with what time has done, he’s (by objective standards) had a great life, I hope and pray he feels at ease with time.

Jacques is a living legend

Jacques Pepin is one of my "culinary heroes". Also I just love the sound of his voice--it's almost as if one of the most brilliant, renowned, respected, and beloved chefs in the world was also your grandfather just pottering around in his kitchen.

Always a pleasure to watch a master at work.

What a beautiful treasure we have in Jacques Pepin!! ❤ God Bless you!!🙏

My mother called the oeuf mollet yolk "soft" boiled eggs. She often prepared them for me and my siblings and served them with oatmeal when we were children. I loved the warm runny yolks.

Beautiful accent and great tips. Merci.

Loved the trick to telling a raw egg apart from a boiled one! I never knew that!

The greatest teacher.

Love to see Jacques cooking. I watched him in the 80's. He was one of the most accurate Chefs around in his recipes.

Jacques's videos really are as close to perfection as you will see. Which is saying a lot, as many other youtubers make great videos rather than merely good.. but there is just something extra mind-blowing to how Pépin does it.

The man is just an endless trove of knowledge.

Thank you so much for this monsieur Jacques. You are a true master at what you do, and you have a great way of passing on knowledge.

Ive learned so much more about actually understanding food and how to cook by watching Jacque than I ever did at cooking school. This man is a gem!

I am so glad Jacques Pepin is still doing his thing, and sharing it with us all. Been a fan of his since I was like 4, and I'm almost 35.

When people ask me where I learned how to cook, my answer is always “From chef Jacques Pépin” I have watched him cook since I was a child. I bought all his books and emulate his techniques. He is a National Treasure!

Mr. Pepin is such a legend.

What a beautiful human. I imagine my wife and I at that age making eggs ,also her favorite food, in almost any setting and I think, perfect!

Cooking an egg may sound that simple. But it is actually an art to get it right. Thanks for sharing.

Many things give me joy - and one of them is watching Jacques Pepin cooking eggs, any kind of eggs! He is a master. 🥚 😀

Sir, you are still the Master.

Thank you for sharing. Have a good day today.

you can never go wrong with this legendary chèf.......thank you so much for your teachings and hard work, God bless you monsieur 👍

I can tell that Msr Jacques enjoys cooking as well as teaching. Just watching him spin those eggs like a child.. so good

Amazing! Jacques, you're a national treasure!

Wow! Such a delight to watch this, nobody can compare with Monsieur Pepin! Merci!

one of the greatest that will ever be. thank you for being here.

I take mental notes on all these videos to one day share with my 2 month old daughter. Thank you very much Jacques

I used to watch Jacques and Julia on our local PBS station when I was 8 or 9. (50 years ago) Actually, my mom would watch and since there was no cable, no other “screens” to watch, and FOUR channels to choose from (4,6,10,PBS) I watched too. They were definitely the best shows on in the early afternoons! Absolutely legendary! 👍🏼❤️

That pound of the cutting board was so wholesome 😌

Looks like Jacques has as much fun as anyone spinning eggs on the cutting board. Love it!

This man is an artist with food. I always learn something from his video. I make hard-boiled eggs differently. I put them in cold water with some salt. No pot cover. I bring the water to a full boil and then I turn it off, cover the pot and leave them there for 15 minutes. No smell. No tinge around yolks. Now, I will try to do it his way.

Thank you!👍

So good to watch a master at his craft !

Thank you Chef Pepin.

Thanks, Jacques! ☮️❤️🐾

He put so much knowledge, wisdom and fun in short videos like this, with home cooking recipes that feel easy to do with what we have at home.

He' a joy to watch in the kitchen,!!!!

Beautiful. Thank you chef!

Jacques Pepin is the ultimate chef!!! Thank you very much!

This fulfilled one of my bucket list items 😊

This mans videos/programs should be on every public TV in the world, everyday. As a service to the community. The new generations can barely cook processed dishes in a microwave.

Many people would laugh if you tell them "I'm learning how to cook an hard boiled egg" but a person who know and love cooking enjoy learning and perfect what appear to most simple.

I love his videos. So humble! He is a real teacher!❤

Thank you so much for this. Exactly what I’ve been looking for.
