Essential Pépin, Jacques Pépin’s newest cooking series, airing on KQED this fall. In his 13th show with KQED, the legendary chef and renowned teacher once again shares his food, family, and passion for cooking with us. With 125 recipes hand-picked by Jacques from his extraordinary career, Essential Pépin has a tempting dish for every occasion and appetite.
Jacques lives close to the sea and has developed a taste for a variety of fins. He begins with a recipe, created by his long-term friend Jean-Claude, of Cured Salmon in Molasses. Jacques prepares it step-by-step so that everyone can learn to make this mouth-watering treat. Jacques follows with Tuna Steaks with Tapenade Coating and Tuna Tartare on Marinated Cucumbers – two very different preparations of the same fish. He also demonstrates a quick and easy Tuna Carpaccio. All this is followed by Poached Salmon in Ravigote Sauce. Then, utilizing skate, a fish that was often only used for bait, Jacques makes Ray Meunière with Mushrooms.
