I am Chef in part due to this man, my Uncle it`s His friend and a great Chef in it`s own right (was Mohamed Ali`s Chef for a while, Gov of Illinois etc,) and one good day when i was 20 YO Uncle Chava told me stories about a great Chef he knew,and how this guy was a master of all cooking methods .I was truly impressed when short time latter Uncle Chava invited me to see both of them cooking in a food expo..then it as clear i will be a Chef,...24 years cooking and teaching now...love the man.
you remind me of my father he was no chef but man he could cook. its always thesimple dishes that always taste the best... I miss his cooking dearly thankyou Jacque
I love to cook, and this wonderful man is teaching me so much. I made those salmon bites and they are delicious!. I love it how he's not wasteful. He is magnifique I tell ya! :)
I just made the chicken dish he made in this episode tonight, and, WOW, that was jammin'. This guy is NOT playing. So much flavor with just salt, pepper and the juice from the chicken.
Excellent show. I never thought of shredding the brussel sprouts. I am trying to eat more vegetables and I will try this....with a little less bacon and salt if possible. Appples with peppers...will try....interesting. Jacques is75? He looks a lot younger.
Yeah, Jacques's semi-frequent disregard for cross-contamination prevention bothers me. But, I still love this dude. He's old school...he doesn't believe in crazy gimmicks or obscure, expensive ingredients from a fancy pants supermarket. Despite the fact that he's obviously a genius chef, he makes a novice cook like me see that I can make great food. Jacques is full of WIN.
I have a question. Someone told me that Julia Child had to get drunk off of wine before taping her shows due to camera fright. Now I know Jacques Drinks more wine in his show than I've ever seen Julia do. Is this true?
does anyone know if the food processors he uses are really that quiet or is it just editing for the show? My food processors, I practically need hearing protection....
It's the microphones. Either he's using a lapel mic just under his collar which has a small pick-up range, or there are hyper-cardiod mics just above the shot pointing at him. Maybe both actually, and they mix the sources, do some filtering et voila.
Jacques is my favorite, he makes a mistake though. He placed the chicken in the hot pan then seasoned with S & P. Unless he threw it away after seasoning, the entire bowl(s) of S & P are tainted with raw chicken juice.
He does that a lot. I don't think he tosses the S & P after seasoning the chicken. He also touches his food after its cooked. I really like his cooking and the dishes look really good. But when chef's unnecessarily touch their food after its done cooking, that bothers me.
one of the most respected human beings...

Yum, the chicken reminds me of my Aunt Mena, except that she just smothered the chicken in Vidalia onions and served it over homemade egg noodles.
