    Almost 90 years old and still references how his Wife would love that dish made my heart melt, like butter.
  • @GrandMarshallB
    At 4:09 he says somewhat unconsciously "my wife will love egg like this...". this is what cooking is all about, even after all these years he still makes it with heart and to make someone happy.

    Jacques is Mr Rogers with an apron. A timeless classic that’s so needed in these current times. Thank you.
  • @bsellers7202
    Rest in Peace Gloria Pepin...just months after he made this video.
  • @xWasabiNekoProx
    I didn't get to have a grandfather growing up so any time I watch Jacques Pépin I want to just give him a hug lol
  • @kabes9288
    So today I cracked my eggs on a flat surface for the first time ever rather than using the corner and honestly this man has changed my life
  • @strix2035
    Boy was I lucky to have him as a teacher in the French culinary institute awesome man! And chef.
  • @fredcabr
    Mr. Pépin has been my TV teacher for almost 40 years. He’s a FANTASTIC teacher. Simple and elegant recipes. He’s the best. Thank you for the many years of joy that you have given and continue to give.
  • @SaidAbiNader
    What a sweet soul he keeps mentioning his wife. I love watching his videos and learning new delicious recipes.

    There is another older video of Jaques making eggs this way that I saw about a year ago, and I've been making my scrambled eggs like this ever since. They're nothing short of life-changing. They look runny, especially in this vid, but I can assure you that they're cooked and taste like velvet. Absolutely incredible. Definitely try this if you haven't! The cooking method is a way that Americans are not really used to: low and slow for eggs, stirring constantly, but just practice and have a little patience and it will definitely pay off. So good!
  • @TorgmanRDP
    this man is 84 years old o.0 he looks amazing for his age. and his cooking skills are still as good as ever.
  • A wonderfully calm and competent instructor, I have enjoyed his presentations since I was a kid. He reminds us that a true expert can teach others without aggrandizing himself.
  • @pollyviolet7878
    Anyone else tearing up when he mentioned his wife Gloria who died recently?
  • @northover
    He is my hero. I have learned so much from this great chef through the years. If you have not read his autobiography, you should. It will make you admire him even more! He came up the hard way during Nazi occupied France and his mother was a great cook. They learned to do so much with as little as possible. They wasted nothing. He was also a great athlete; a great soccer player
  • @Ingyar
    It's so comforting to watch and listen Jacques. 😀
  • @barney6888
    This man is an artist. I have been ruining scrambled eggs for 60 years and never thought of this.
  • For folks complaining that the eggs aren't done enough for their taste, maybe try cooking yours a little longer. Problem solved.
  • @justjem6169
    Ive never heard of reserving some of the uncooked egg to add at the end to stop the cooking process. Good idea!
