Jacques Pepin @ Home

[rotuts]

Ive come across a few of these Vids.

 

via KQED.

 

here is The Master making a chicken dish :

 

1 ) he cuts off the skin from the leg , along w a bit of bone :

 

 

what a horrible thing to do w a fine knife ...≥

 

but wait , there is writing on the side of the knife , and its does not have a full bolster :

 

 

looks like a freebie from PB , and not a very good knife it seems !

 

many things might be said about The Master

 

I guess he's a fairly frugal guy !

 

wonder what happened to the knife after this show.

Surprising PB would give a POS knife to those luminaries.

[rotuts]

i think they go for the Drinking .

 

not the Cutting Up.

Does anyone here have a membership to the Jacques Pepin Foundation?

"You need a chopping knife, 9 to 12 inch depending on the size of your hand. You know, a man may have a bigger hand than a woman. Whatever feel comfortable. A utility knife, for slicing, doing all of this, about 6 inches. And a paring knife. You don't have to pay much money for the paring knife, you tend to lose it, so cheaper ordinary paring knife is fine. But you need those three knives... (pause) ... That being said, I probably have 300 knives at my house."

He is not precious about his knives. Brutally straight forward sharpening technique.

Theae two videos seem to have been shot at the same session.
