Children Never Lie...i Remember My Daughter Standing

When I Pair Food And Wine, I Start With The Food. If I Have A Beautiful Roasted Bird, I Might Choose A Cabernet Or Pinot Noir, Or Maybe A Syrah, Depending On The Sauce And What Is In My Cellar.

The Idea Of Old Was To Conform Yourself To A Style Of Cooking, It Was Not To Create A Style Of Cooking. Now The Chef Is So Much Into 'i Want To Sign That Dish And Say I Am The One Who Made That Dish.

Just Because I Am A Chef Doesn't Mean I Don't Rely On Fast Recipes. Indeed, We All Have Moments When, Pressed For Time, We'll Use A Can Of Tuna And A Tomato For A First Course. It's A Question Of Choosing The Right Recipes For The Rest Of The Menu.

Cooking Is The Art Of Adjustment.

I Taped My First Series For Pbs In 1982 At Wjct-tv In Jacksonville, Florida. The Show, Called 'everyday Cooking With Jacques Pepin,' Was About Saving Time And Money In The Kitchen - And It Was A Celebration Of Simple And Unpretentious Food.
