    I FINALLY made this last week. It really was "amazing friends"! I added more sherry than the recipe called for (maybe a little more Port too...lol) but that's just a choice thing. It was great the first day and even better after it was in the fridge for another 2-3 days. I had to buy the crocks bc I wanted the melted/broiled cheese effect. I buy more stuff bc of this channel. But so worth it. Love JP!

      My mother was born and raised in France just a bit South of Bordeaux. She was 11 during the 2nd WW but that's a whole other story! When she made French Onion soup it would literally take her days! She made a pure beef broth with bones and rich wine, homemade croutons and amazing Swiss cheese! Gruyere, Baby Swiss and Ementhal! Oh my goodnes how rich and full of flavor not to mention the amazing melted cheeses...only the French can cook like this and thank God I have that amazing cooking gene!! BTW the bone and marrow upon a homemade baquet is simply beyond words!

You know the chef- measure carefully.

    My husband and I live about 45 minutes drive from his cooking school in Ft. Lauderdale, and have been to his classes approximately 10 times. Every time was a delightful, fun experience, and I learned many new techniques as well, which I use all the time now. His food was always fabulous, and his sense of humor kept us laughing. His Mom is in her nineties, loves butter and wine, and was a Cordon Bleu chef. When we were going there, she was still living in Provence. So the acorn didn’t fall far from the tree. Little known fact: Chef Jean Pierre was on the Today Show 28 times. I purchased one of his older cookbooks a couple of years ago so I assume they’re still available. So glad that even though he has retired, he still does these videos. Truly a great guy!

The saltiness/umami of the onion soup, the sponginess of the bread and the creaminess of the cheese.. that was amazing!

      finally saw one of her old shows, and on this particular thing. seeing the different methods and ingredients really helps ME understand the core basics of necessity versus where you can get creative. direct comparisons can be amazing for that. plus, where you can do shortcuts, or how the changing of certain ingredients affects taste, texture, etc.

Their food was amazing The speed was amazing The symphony of the kitchen was amazing and I had to sneak around a lot to see how they made things because they were very secretive about sauces and such, but everything I learned I learned there and that was a restaurant in Pittsburgh owned by a chef named Franco.

    I made French Onion Soup for the first time ever recently (I grew a huge crop of onions and needed recipes). This is a GOB SMACKING soup. I threw a couple of lugs of cognac in mine and that, the caramelised onions, baguettes, gruyere - wow WHAT A DISH ! I had no idea how good it was. A tour de force from France.

    Incorporating the flour through a strainer is a game changer! I can't believe I've never thought of that, I'll definitely be using it from now on though!

    OMG, I just stumbled across Chef Jean-Pierre videos last night and I can't stop watching! When he pulled out his collection of whisks I couldn't stop laughing! Had to stop the video at 14:42 and leave this comment. This guy is going to single-handedly revive my love of cooking. What a joy he is!

      @@ChefJeanPierre I'm building a new kitchen into my 83 square foot galley space.
      I have drawer space reserved for my whisks, I have drawer space reserved for my stock pots. I have drawer space reserved for my strainers.
      Now, and polite answers only, please, where am I supposed to put the appliances?

    When I make a large batch of onion soup I put it in Red Solo cups and freeze. After a day I put it in a zip bag. This gives me very consistent single serving which are easily microwaved.
