I've never eaten pork kidneys but if Jacques Pepin says they are delicious THEY ARE DELICIOUS! I'm going to
purchase some tomorrow and try them this week....
Let us know how it goes, Randy!
@@maxwellcowley1900 will do!
Yeah😆 Go ahead and eat that pork kidney a lit'bit pink...Take the risk of getting worms....😅
@@gerardogarcia6201 Trichinosis has been eradicated in the food chain today. There is very little if any danger of contracting parasites from eating meat
I eat hot dogs -- so I'm sure I've eaten lots of pork kidneys.
Takes me back to my childhood....my mother cooking kidneys and my dad coming home from work, hollering "Who peed on the (bathroom) heater again?!?""
Worldclass classically trained chef,not too snooty to useV8 in a dish. I love this guy.
This is a man who turned down working privately for a U.S. president in order to cook for the people with Howard Johnson's and it shows.❤
@@kqed He'd already cooked for the president of France.
Wow, I have been cooking kidneys for 20 years, love em, never thought to clean the fibrous white part like that. Just like filleting a fish, brilliant.
Ever get "worms" from eating pink kidneys?
Memories from my childhood. My Mom made this. Thank you Jacques. From Southern California with much love ♥️
Best thing you ever eat
A very underated cheap meal and as you say very tasty, I very often cook them in a stir fry as they cook to a lovely pink colour and stay tender and creamy (try them with a peanut butter, garlic and sweet soy sauce with vegetables, scrummy)
And thanks Jacques for showing us how to take out the membrane I had not seen that before, bit like filleting a fish👍
One thing that goes unsaid in this video is that the "scent" of the kidneys leaves no doubt about their origin. For that reason, acidic sauces are always popular, even, dare I say, required. I usually choose a mustard sauce. Jacques uses tomato here, which is also really good. I don't want to rain on anyone's parade, but I do think people should know what they're getting into if they try this dish.
i.e. If you dont enjoy golden showers, you might not enjoy this.
Soak them in milk for a couple hours, and the offal taste is almost eliminated. Works for "gamey" venison as well
See, how can people even remotely think that is delicious? How can a pee smell be yummy even with all the sauces/spices etc? Makes no sense. Although I will try anything once especially if they say it tastes good.
Lollllllllllllll
@@clairebear0713it's easier when it was given to you as a child and you didn't know what it was, you just acclimated to the taste gradually and it became a delicacy. When I tried heart for the first time, in my 40's, it tasted like kidneys to me.
We eat quite a lot of giblets here in Turkey, not pork of course, mostly lamb and sometimes veal. Kidneys are my absolute favourite. Very tasty. You gotta soak them in water beforehand though so that they wont smell of, well, urine.
I love kidneys! Veal kidneys are delicious with a wine, shallot, dijon and cream sauce. My Mom made them for us like that as children, and now I often make that same recipe myself. I've never had pork kidney, but I will definitely try this recipe, thank you Jacques!
A local place serves what they call a 'kidney roll', which is a slice of toast with a big heaping scoop of kidney ragout on top, which is then breaded and deep fried. World famous in our town, and absolutely delicious.
I'd definitely try that! Would you mind sharing the establishment?
In Thanksgiving: ( USA 🇺🇸) : btw: the presentation is outstanding: again, the presentation is outstanding
Lovely! I prepare it very similar, a bit more onion in general and some bay leaf and brandy apart from the wine. I try and buy heart, liver or kidney of whatever animal is available once a week. It's ridiculously cheap and great for your health. Not to mention that if you eat meat I think you should eat everything and not just the muscles.
I've never met this man, but I sure wish I could!! Would love to share a meal and a drink with him.
masters of chef Jacques Pepin 👍👍👍 classic video
Yum
So beautiful, now I want to make this:)
Delicious !
My husband is going to love this recipe.🙏🏻Chef Pepin.😊
Yummy
Oh boy I gotta try that recipe. Looks delicious 👍
I TRULY ENJOY PEPIN RECIPES , there STRAIGHT FORWARD & SIMPLE & WELL EXPLAIN .... MASSIVE THANKS ‼️👍 ‼️
This looks great! I must try them out!! Does Chef have a recipe for sweet breads?
Absolutely wonderful. 👍. My thought of thing.
I'm going to try and make these one day this week. This guy inspires me to do better :)
BTW- The calves’ liver was sautéed in butter and oil with steamed veggies on the side ( herbs and butter) and tasted so, so, so good
G.O.A.T.
It’s ages since I’ve had any kidneys, and I’ve never had pork kidneys. Mum would serve kidneys with the occasional breakfast when I was a kid. I’ll certainly give these a try if my butcher has them. Thank you Chef Pépin
Going to get the kidneys see you in a bit 👨🍳 ❤❤❤ wonderful recipe 😋
In Thanksgiving: ( USA 🇺🇸) : btw: Master Chef Jacques Pepin : thank you: again, Master Chef Jacques Pepin: thank you
Huge fan of kidneys and liver😍
Don’t forget steak and kidney pie
Mmmmm....kidney 🤤
An unexpected ingredient, but one I feel like I have to try now! Offal gets overlooked, but in my experience, it's usually pretty tasty.
I was surprised I liked liver when I first tried it. I wasn't a fan of chicken hearts. But who knows, kidney might be even better than both of those. It looks pretty good how it was prepared here.
I grew up eating pork, beef, and chicken liver. We never ate kidneys, however. I'm going to try them as soon as I can find out where I can buy them. I live pretty close to some Amish farmers so I will ask them to let me know when they butcher a hog. I'm stoked!
Were these recorded a while ago? some of the things he says makes it seems like it might be from a few years ago, but i was just wondering. Loving his books at the moment, could watch these all day. cheers.
Here I thought I was the only one smart enough to use V-8 Cocktail in my cooking!
I really wish it was easier to get kidney’s.👍🤣👍
With the exception of Uwajimaya, they are stocked in every Asian grocery store near me (Portland, OR Metro)
In Thanksgiving: ( USA 🇺🇸) : btw: Media Technical Support Team: thank you: again, thank you
My mother used to make kidney stew when we were kids…haven’t had them in over 50 years.
In italy theres no such thing as unexpensibe, but i will try it
That was so different. I've been wondering how to incorporate more organ meat into my diet; things like liver and kidneys. I'm not sure I could do tripe or lung.... But I'm going to try this
Be adventurous! I don't like tripe and have never eaten lung but I've eaten pork brain with scrambled eggs. I liked them when I was a child. I haven't had any since I was a kid. But I'm going to get some! I believe we should not waste any part of an animal.
Oh nice. Never eaten pork kidneys before. Hmmm I do hope I can find them to try out this dish
I love liver, so I'm interested in finding a butcher in my area that sells these. Chicken livers (my favorite) are pretty cheap, so here we go. New things. First cooking Chef's way, then maybe trying some English methods. I've always wanted to try steak and kidney pie for a brunch.
You may have to ask your butcher to order them for you. I have some on order from my local butcher.
Absolute best place for kidneys is steak and kidney pudding! Look it up!
I have never eating anything like this. Sounds like something you fish with or throw out, however if Mr. Pepin says its okay, try it. Well, I might just be like Mikey.
Do these have the same texture as liver? I do like liver and the gizzards too, so I'm assuming I'll like these. Just wondering what it "should" taste like. Chef did a combined special with Ming Tsai, and did chicken livers in port wine and mushrooms...outstanding! I wonder if these kidney can be cooked the same way. I will try this recipe, just thinking ahead haha.
Kidneys and liver are very similar in texture and qualities when cooking, so yes.
organ meat is often thought of as gross but liverwurst and other things like brain are so tasty.
I tried liver once. Never knew people eat kidneys. That’s savage.
Very inexpensive? I wonder how much the store will pay you to take those things home? Not my personal cup of tea. But charming and interesting to watch the great chef at work, as always.
The closest thing I have tried is kidney beans! 😀 But I enjoy chef’s videos nonetheless!
In other recipes for kidneys i've read, there's always a soaking step involved, usually after removing the sinewy insides. This is ostensibly to cut down on a urine smell that they make when you cook them. Jacques doesn't mention that here. Is it not needed? or is that just folklore? or is it just what one gets for a quick evening meal of kidneys?
Soaking is really down to preference in my opinion, if you don't like the stronger flavour of kidney soak them, if you do, don't bother. Same with liver, and sweat breads, I never soak them personally, I like the strong flavour of kidney, or the ferrous iron of liver.
@@BenjiMordino I don't think I want anyone's 'sweat' on my bread.
@@BenjiMordino True. My mom never soaked chicken livers, just breaded and into the butter.
I will only eat kidneys when my mother makes them and she stopped cooking a year ago, so... I can say kidneys are indeed delicious, when prepared correctly.
I knew there'd be a bunch of comments about how good kidneys are,
BTW - once I ordered calves’ liver at a restaurant in New York City 🏙️ and it was absolutely delicious 🤤
Hey I already put in port without cleaning white part😂
Only time I would ever eat offal is if Jacque Pepin made them.
We should all learn how to not waste any part. I’d like to learn how to cook beef heart.
Hi jacqes. Dont you wanna pre cook this kidney with salt, lemon, or vinegar, to remove iuron taste?
Did i just watch him filet a kidney like a fish? Wow
I wish I knew where to get some kidneys!
Any butcher shops
@@ryanray6215 Where I live there are no butcher shops.
@@theodore6548 How people can survive and be healthy if there is no butcher shops ???
I like pork kidneys better than the liver. Its kinda has a sausage taste to it imo. But I cook mine a bit more to be on the safe side.
💪🧠🏋️🙏
is that a non stick pan?
The sinew in the center is the Renal Pelvis where all the filtering tubules branch off of, lots of connective tissue.
Does he soak kidneys to remove the odor of urine when they're cooking and served. I've had them and the only thing missing was the deodorant cake at the bottom of the pan , other times they were fine but had been soaked with several water changes.
What is that V8 ?
it is a mainly tomato vegetable juice mix...its not that important in this recipe
I honestly have never been in a butcher shop and saw kidneys for sale. Maybe our butchers are taking them all home. Are they a "butcher's cut"?
After a traumatic grandpa incident in childhood. It would take Jacques Pépin himself feeding me, to try kidney again, and I would probably still cry about it 😆. It looks less traumatic when he makes it at least.
All respect to Mr. Pepin....one of my favorite Chefs...but I wouldn't eat that with his mouth......Thank You Mr. Pepin!
I would have to find a real butcher in my city to buy kidneys. I've never had them so I don't know what I'm missing out on.
That spicy V8 is addictive.
What would you accompany these kidneys with?
Mashed potatoes
Sorry, but what is V8?
It's a tomato heavy vegetable juice, you could just use tomato passata.
Not kidneys but I remember dad cooking lambs brains ,poached in salt water for his breakfast it was sooo good I had to beg for just a little taste !
👍🏻🍀✝️🇺🇲👊🏻
Man I got to say I'm mad I just met Jack as I call him like 4 months ago cause he cold.
Jacques I’d probably eat a poop if you told me it would be good but there’s pretty much a no chance I’d eat those kidneys. I love you. Your videos helped me a lot through the pandemic. But nope. Hard pass on these.
Yeah😆 Go ahead and eat that pork kidney a lit'bit pink...Take the risk of getting worms....😅
School me. Should we not be concerned about the toxins that are filtered thru kidneys and livers?
Organ meats are extremely healthy. If the animal was healthy you have nothing to worry about.
If the animal is not healthy, you don't eat any of it, organ meat or any other part...
School is out, good luck.
If your own liver is overly taxed, then eating organ meats is not advised. It may stimulate irritability, anger, and some unpleasantness
@@richardcorsillo9819 most people would have no idea if their liver is overtaxed, undertaxed, or working fine.
@@Motoko1134 Well then thank goodness i am raising awareness, papa
This guy could cook a shoe and it would taste good
Kidneys stink up the whole house..yuk
Any Liver is NOT for Me!🤢 And I will NOT even attempt to eat Kidneys.🤢
Liver is the one organ I don’t care for!
Kidney is yummy!
gross
I like kidneys, liver and onions in a similar sauce. Im going to try this.
