You can't imagine how emotional I get viewing these videos. Jacques' life philosophy is so humane and unpretentious. A life lived to it's fullest and all birth gifts used! God bless all.
I adore him so so much. I've been watching Jaques Pepin since I'm old enough to recall. I was the only child I knew who ran home from school to see cooking shows on tv. When Julia Childs passed away I cried as if I knew her. Seeing Jaques starting to have some troubles walking put a lump in the throat. He has built such a happy life for himself and his family. I wish him the best always.
Get his autobiography “The Apprentice.” You’ll love it! They told him he’d never walk again after a horrific accident years ago. He defied all expectations over and over! It’s a delightful book!
I have such respect for Chef Jacques Pepin. He is an inspiration, and a prime example as to why everyone should be humble, honest, and honorable. He is one of a kind.
I loved this dinner at home with Jacques Pepin and his family in CT I have been a fan for so long this was a treat. Thank you Jacques for so many years of educating, entertaining and sharing your life and being so gracious about it all, I love you.
Thank you Mr Pepin for educating, entertaining and sharing your life and being so gracious about it all. I love all your shows and have recently stumbled on your videos. How I have never seen them before I do not know. Greetings from Cambridgeshire, UK.
Wonderful, before Jacques there was Julia, discovered him way back when he helped her out on her show! What a Genious! Ever since Master Jacques has been Number One of all chefs in my mind! Thank You Jacques!
My father loved cooking and food and he passed that on to his 3 sons. I'm not sure that any of us are on the same level of exploration as my father, as we mostly cooked for our families and the wife and kids, who have their druthers. My youngest brother was the most adventuresome, and closest to my father in the desire to cook a fancy dish. He was influenced by managing for Steak and Ale. But I see the same enjoyment of food, drink and socializing in Jacques Pepin's family that we had, ... especially at holiday seasons. Like Jacques, I've grown older and arthritis has set in, but the same love love is there. My sons have moved away, ... so I mostly cook for my wife and myself and the challenge is to come up with recipes for one or two people. I can experiment more as I will cook for my taste and ensure that my wife has something she likes to eat. But nothing beats enjoying food together! Very nice story on a fantastic gentleman who is beloved by many!
The man is just amazing in french home cooking I've known him for years in the mastery of french home cooking now I've learned how to cook since I was 17 watching PBS 11..
I have no wife, no family. I wish I could live like this. I'm happy that I can learn to cook from a true master though. : ) Maybe one day I can enjoy making a dinner for loved ones.
My true inspiration, because I remember Jacques explain in one of his fast food at home segments. You don’t have to be a chef to make great food you just have to have the palette and heart.. been cooking since ( 23 years) he’s the only chef they I’ve studied..
1:03 Pepin in the culinary game since the early sixties???? Uh try 1948 at age 13 when he first was in a professional Kitchen as an apprentice! Or try earlier than that from age 5 with his Mother. The guy's been cooking for 80 years!
I would hate to think of how the world would be so much less if Jacques Pepin had not lived. Even though my heart hurt when Julia passed away; when Jacques leaves us, there will be such an empty spot left. I hope he knows Jesus so that we will not lose him completely.
I'm sure it's always nerve-wracking to cook for your in-laws, but when your father-in-law is Jacques, it must be terrifying even after all these years..
I urge you to read his autobiography, "The Apprentice". It's a really good read, every bit as relaxed as he is. The story of the meal he cooked for himself at Gloria's apartment early in their relationship goes right to the heart of what you're thinking here. Really, the book is worth every reading minute.
Just from videos online, I would say he would have diffused that long ago. To him, a meal is about love, sharing with those around you, giving of your best. I can not believe he would allow any family member to be terrified about what and how to contribute. He is a great teacher - if a little learning gets you to where you are not scared anymore (much less terrified) I am sure he is helping them over that hump.
@@ChuckMarteau My apologies. I worked in restaurants since I was 14. I'm 66 and still do. Whenever I get sick of it I think of him and Je me sens dans ma peau. He embodies everything good about cooking and life in balance. Le maitre.
Of course the irony is that Pépin embodies everything that is NOT the typical French stereotype: unpretentious, down to earth and a chef that will teach everything but the kind of pretentious food that has often been (incorrectly) labeled with French cuisine.
Yeah, that sure is a stereotype. France is full of great people and great food, maybe you're thinking of some stuck-up luxurious restaurants, which of course you'll find in France, but these family gatherings and simple people are the trend here. At least they used to be ;) Oh and that might surprise a lot of people watching these videos, but absolutely no one knows J. Pépin here. Sureley because he's lived most of his life in the US. I really like his videos though, you can definately tell he's had that old school teaching everyone praises 👍
Something new to learn every time I watch him. Did you know putting avacado in water kept it fresh? Me either. I always just used lemon or lime juice. But sometimes you don't want those flavors. Good tip. I think he lives in Connecticut, right?
I hear you on the Avocado tip..I didn't know that either. Like you I've always used lemon rubbed on the surface. I learn somthing from that GREAT Chef...every time I watch him. Annnd....That's been for at least 25 yrs. I miss the true Chefs that really cook and show how they do it with love and passion for the food.
Cheryl lynne. She is wearing a red and white blouse and is sitting to the right between her son-in-law and her grandaughter Shorey. The lsfy in purple with gray hsir is not his wife.
As a bit of constructive criticism, your audio mixing could be improved... Levels are not consistent (voiceover and music is super loud), there is quite a bit of background noise on the interview parts, very bass heavy for something that is primarily speech.
No. I believe she's a family friend. Jacques's wife's name is Gloria. You see her on the right of the screen at 1:39 wearing a red shirt with a floral decoration. She's sitting between her son-in-law and granddaughter.
The chick that brought the wine seemed like a knowit all , when mr, Pepin was showing her stuff she was ''yes yes , I know ''Like she didn't want to be told anything , about anything because she all ready knew it ,there are a lot of people out there like that , Easy to guess who she will be voteing for president .

No one like you!Thank you for teaching us the European touch and expertise how to do that right way.love your family espeally your granddaughter'ev Never missed you on tv and still see you on my tablet.God less you for many many mor years
Ce qui me trouble le plus, ce sont ces gens qui quittent leur Pays natal comme Jacques vs la France, pour s'installer aux States et changer complètement de culture.... Est-ce que ses enfants savent au moins parler français?.......

Its crazy I get emotional as well because there are too few people of this quality
You are not alone, sitting here with tears rolling down me cheeks.
I'm also with you all...very emotional...
Same. Until I saw these comments I wondered if there was something wrong with me.
I have 10 brothers and three sisters ,it had to be a team effort in the kitchen.I used to watch Jacques with Julia ,way back when.Cheers.
I adore him so so much. I've been watching Jaques Pepin since I'm old enough to recall. I was the only child I knew who ran home from school to see cooking shows on tv.

Same here! I was the only kid I knew that watched him cook religiously and I learned to cook and still do by watching him. Just adore him.
Get his autobiography “The Apprentice.” You’ll love it! They told him he’d never walk again after a horrific accident years ago. He defied all expectations over and over! It’s a delightful book!
@@tracyarmstrong2953 I will get it right away!! Thank you so much ❤️
@@tracyarmstrong2953 A great book about a great chef and a great man! Viva Jacques!
Can you imagine what Kind of a world it would be if everyone was like Jacques 😊
It won't be interesting because there will be no YOU and the world needs you also to be a beautiful place.
A far more sane and kinder world
We will be obese. Haha happy well fed tax free.
Beautiful, truly beautiful. Heavenly is another word for the Jacques world.
*how awful! Are you out of your mind??*
I have such respect for Chef Jacques Pepin. He is an inspiration, and a prime example as to why everyone should be humble, honest, and honorable. He is one of a kind.
Thank God for this man and his spirit
What a beautiful family!!! His granddaughter is PRECIOUS!

You remind me of the good days with my Dad, in heaven bless him. He too was a fantastic cook. He made food with love. Very much loved
Every time I see him I kind of wish he were my grandpa.
me too
Got a little teary watching this, what a beautiful homely video 🥺🥰🥰🥰

I agree for sure. But we can't forget Julia, Emeril and a whole slue of other Great Chefs that don't have a T.V. gig.
Jacques Pepin is the reason I love cooking.
happy cooking! love this man to no end!
Love to see a family cooking together ❤️
Such a GREAT man and Food Ambassador
He truly is a legend! 🥂
What a lovely family having fun together!
Very cool to see him in his home. Im pretty sure he's lived there for decades
I’m so happy you got to experience this and thankful you shared the experience so beautifully

the best of the best
St Helena is a special place for me, I spent 2 months at Greystone CIA brushing up on my culinary skills, best time of my life 1996…..
Great avocado tip. Thank you
Hey , It's Jacques.
I would hate to think of how the world would be so much less if Jacques Pepin had not lived. Even though my heart hurt when Julia passed away; when Jacques leaves us, there will be such an empty spot left. I hope he knows Jesus so that we will not lose him completely.
Amazing man
Heartwarming
He is the best
Blessed.
An amazing man
Jacques is the BEST! SHorey looks like him! the same eyes nose and face shape! Cute! Kimberly
Never seen Obiwan with a smile that big ! A true Jedi meal.
Amei!!
Shorey is a beautiful young woman ...and thanks Chef for the avocado tip !!
Wow, Shorey definitely got her height from her father. I remember back when she was a tiny little girl in Essential Pepin.
Beautieful girl!
Shorey looks so much like her Grand-père Jacques!
Thank you so much.

I think he is very much alive

@@ChuckMarteau I found him again during the Covid19 lockdown on RUclips...or he found me, through my heart and soul. Merci mon ami.
. . . The 'R.I.P' was not in reference to Monsieur Papin. I am certain that fact is known to it's author.
Was it my computer (tablet) connection or the video that caused constant audio breakups?
Of course the irony is that Pépin embodies everything that is NOT the typical French stereotype: unpretentious, down to earth and a chef that will teach everything but the kind of pretentious food that has often been (incorrectly) labeled with French cuisine.

Naan? More like Bannock. Delicious none the less.
At least his granddaughter is cooking with her lovely grandfather- not making nonsense videos or sitting behind a computer screen all day!
Where is mrs. Pepin?
She's to the right wearing a red print blouse next to her son-in- law.
Cheryl lynne. She is wearing a red and white blouse and is sitting to the right between her son-in-law and her grandaughter Shorey. The lsfy in purple with gray hsir is not his wife.

there are people who literally get paid to cook and eat with Jacques Pépin 😆 🤯
I wonder how he finds good tomatoes.
He grows them. Mostly heirlooms.
@@LCmonman that's the best way! 😊
who is PRISCILLA? is that Jacque's wife or ???
No. I believe she's a family friend. Jacques's wife's name is Gloria. You see her on the right of the screen at 1:39 wearing a red shirt with a floral decoration. She's sitting between her son-in-law and granddaughter.
