  • Jacques Pépin demonstrates an easy and elegant method of making a fruit puff pastry dessert, without all of the layering and soaking that puff pastry usually requires. In about 40 minutes, you'll have a sweet and crispy treat. Serve warm. Hope you have some ice cream in the freezer!
    What you'll need:
    1 large pear, 1.5 tbsp sugar, 4 tbsp butter, 2 tbsp peach or apricot jam, 2 squares puff pastry

    This is why Pépin is the man. He can take regular stuff and make gold.
    Dude is an award winning, world-renown, all-time great that literally helped write the books on modern cuisine. What's he do with it? No fancy, crazy restaurants or pretentious recipes... he teaches you how to make food with what you have. Teaches you how to cook like a normal, every day person-because that's what he is. The real deal.

    Jack buys puff pastry pre-made at the supermarket, then so can we. He uses freezer burned stuff, a bruised pear, Smucker's apricot preserves. Chef Pépin uses stuff on hand: peasant food with an elegant twist. Listen to Jack - his philosophy of life.

    Chef Pépin does not fuck around. Straight to the point. The only asides he adds are what experience has told him is important. If you follow his directions, you *will* learn to cook even if you don't want to. I have worked under multiple CMCs and not a single one has taught me more than Chef Pépin.

    Jacque is a Master that speaks to generations of home cooks. Thank you for the Apprentice which indulged my love of wartime European life and the gift of learning methods of frugality. Throwing away vegetal peelings IS a waste and my cooking is better for it. The permission you give to the masses about making a recipe your own, let me create your food first, and then try my hand at tweaking recipes without guilt. My family name is Prunier, and I was raised to cook by the law of ingrained memory. Now at 56 years of age, a Master has freed my confinement and I now can enjoy a flourish or inspiration of my own. The world is a better place because of you, and your family. Thank you for being...well...YOU!!!
