Minute Recipe: Salmon Rolls. Jacques Pépin explains the differences between Endive, chicory, and Belgium endive, starting with Rigatoni with Lettuce and Eggplant and Sautéed Julienned Endive. A trip to the fish counter results in a harvest of some ocean "greens," too! Seaweed-lined bamboo steamer baskets hold fresh seafood for Steamed Fish and Shellfish Baskets. The pantry supplies dessert as dried figs and walnuts poached in honeyed wine appear in Sautéed Stuffed Figs with Blueberries, a dessert that pairs perfectly with the sweet fortified wine, Madeira.

When you watch an extraordinary chef like Jacques, you can always learn new tips. I live in a country of eggplants and we use them in so many dishes yet I did not have the slightest idea about male-female eggplants and their seeds. I am sure very few people have this information around me, too. It will be really cool showing off to family and friends next time I do an eggplant dish and surely credits will go to this marvellous person… Thank you very much Chef !

Icky stuff like his slurping spit or other bodily functions would just be dismissed as unimportant or TOO PERSONAL for a stranger to comment. Commentators know this unless they are: 1) YOUNG MALES(these days perhaps females) or 2) have personal issues/shortcomings. I take time to educate you as you are probably youngster

I love how he rarely ever uses the plural form of any word. I don't know if it's a french grammar thing or Jacques just picked it up somehow.

@zeldaoot23 3 жыл бұрын

It seems likely to be related to the fact that most French plurals aren’t pronounced, even if they’re spelled differently than the singular. It’s probably hard to break the habit, and Jacques may also realize that it adds an endearing “Frenchness” to everything he says! I’ve also noticed that some Chinese people mix up he/she when speaking English... I suspect it’s because the words for “he” and “she” are pronounced exactly the same in Chinese, even though they are “spelled” with different characters.
