From easy to elegant, Essential Pépin shares more than 125 recipes culled from Jacques Pépin's legendary career. In the 26-episode series, Jacques demonstrates, with his usual ease and flair, dishes ranging from classical Escoffier Quenelles to homey Braised Beef in Red Wine, to nouvelle Nage Courte of Striped Bass, and simple Chicken with Tarragon Butter. Jacques cooks what he loves and mouth-watering treats include Basic French Fries, Soda Bread, homey Tomatoes Maison, and Brioche. Desserts range from uncomplicated Quick Almond Plum Cake and fast Chocolate Truffettes to the ultimate… a perfect Apricot and Pistachio Soufflé. It's no wonder that Julia Child called Jacques "the best chef in America."

Jacque Pepin - class act
Review by Loyal on 07/17/20 review stating Jacque Pepin - class act
You can get this cheeper on Amazon, BUT why do that unless money is really tight. Jacque was loyal to KQED, never selling out to Food Network or any other suitor (and there were many). This man teaches through time, generously and rivaling any $50,000 dollars cooking school.

Review by Joy H. on 07/17/20 review stating An Old Friend in Your Kitchen
Dear Jacques Pepin! His gentle personality and step-by-step teaching style makes me feel as though I have an old friend in my kitchen, teaching me not only how to make wonderful food but to take great pleasure in the process. I highly recommend this DVD set to anyone who enjoys the quiet meditation of preparing and sharing delicious food.
