Budget Friendly Recipes from Jacques Pépin | KQED

Now more than ever has budget food become more prominent, learn well as it will only get more difficult in the future.

Jacques - you are just the best! You are what the world needs - a wonderful teacher who shows us how to make economical - real food - at home. All these so called "foodies" - who only know how to order in - or - order meals when they are out. No need to visit a food bank if you know how to cook beans/vegetable soups etc.

Whatta mess everytime here 😂😂😂

He is excellent, of course.

😃😃😃😃😃😃😃

Omg! I'm not a dessert guy but that looks delicious. Can you eat the beans?

I love him. I think I can handle the salad and potato pancake. The squid 🐙 intimidates me a bit. 😂

Tomato rose just blew my mind. Just wow.

It's so soothing to watch these old videos, a master demonstrating his craft. Effortless elegance.

Did anyone try the potato recipe and did it need more salt? Thanks (:

Flips the potato cake like nothing

lol. My ex is from Lyon. Been there.

For this afternoon's meal I used the marinade on a pork tenderloin and gave it the Instant Pot treatment. It was probably the best pork tenderloin I've ever made and with far less cooking time than an oven.

If you're looking for good wine from Australia the best region here for wine growing is the 'Barossa Valley' in South Australia. My family settled there in the 1850s and had a winery for many years.

Creating fancy looks out of the tomato and lemon is so pretty.

man that flip is so casual .. but realy realy hard to get right .. makes you think how many times he have flipped it before.. amazing

Within the first moments of watching I learned to grate my potatoes the long way for long strips – it would never have occurred to me. Making this potato dish today, just because.

From watching Chef over the years he’s always been an advocate of wasting nothing, all the way to washing out his mustard jars with vinegar to incorporate the last bit into his dressing. This is partially as he was taught by his mother.

Flexing with those flips!

The potato pancake looks so easy, I am going to try that.

Pepin you are awesome

As always- amazing

It is always a joy to watch Jacques Pépin prepare food. Any food really.
You can tell he loves what he prepares, for himself. Can it get better ?
Thanks for making every watching well worth it. From Canada, Karin

somehow i cant imagine him on a 2 am fridge raid.

Love this guy, he's like straight from the 1970s

Gorgeous menu. In this current decade (2020), we take for granted the goal of this series: to balance taste, nutrition, economy and healthy choices. In the 1990s, Jacques had to beg his viewers to consider this concept.

Great dinner !! love it Sir!!!

He makes one feel that being thrifty is such a good idea. He isn’t just teaching us to cook, he is also teaching us to be down to earth people. What a guy as Gloria said.

You can tell Chef used to be a Garde Manger. If you know the Brigade, the garde manger is also tasked with doing such decorations like he did with the lemon and tomato.

Another Frenchman that learned how to cook from mother!!! I Love This!!!

Thanks you very much 🥦🧄🍅🍄🧅

Hope you're well, Jaques! Take care!

only jacques pepin could get away with using the same knife to cut both raw and cooked pork, and scraping up a nonstick pan with a fork

He is the only person that could make me eat squid.

Love his budget ideas. He made lentil soup and added a can of chicken. Brilliant! Please, show more of his budget recipes because we are all going to need them more than ever.

Saving this..yum

Love this guy
