The JPF released “Cook with Jacques Pépin & Friends: Volume 4” on Giving Tuesday (November 29, 2022). What started as a pandemic pivot to enrich lives and strengthen communities through culinary education has grown into a recurring series. This Video Recipe Book is available to all members of the JPF and membership starts at just $40 per year.

On November 23, 2022, Jacques returned to “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon” to discuss Thanksgiving and provide culinary tips in the kitchen.

Longtime friends and Jacques Pépin Foundation Champion Partners Daniel and Katherine Boulud and Ming and Polly Tsai have deliciously joined forces with JPF elite members Susan and Glenn from Park City, UT, Maria and Joe from Seattle, WA, and a devoted couple who love to cook for each other in NYC to support JPF membership.

Artist-quality prints of Jacques’ painting “Vivid Buffet” are now available for a donation benefiting the JPF. This year’s posters help celebrate the JPF’s 5th Anniversary, and feature Jacques’ distinctive abstract style. These museum-quality posters are made on thick and durable matte paper and available in two colors (ochre and blue).

The JPF was thrilled to be back in person for the 5th Anniversary Celebration at The Yale Club of New York City. Surrounded by long-time supporters and new JPF Members, the room was filled with warmth and joy in support of our mission to improve lives through culinary education.

On January 27, 2022, Jacques appeared as a guest on “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.” He made a French omelette with Jimmy and Questlove, demonstrating his signature technique, while highlighting his forthcoming book, The Art of the Chicken: A Master Chef’s Recipes and Stories of the Humble Bird.

On February 1, 2022, a group of JPF Executive Chef and Chef de Cuisine Members attended our first Coffee with the Executive Director, a Zoom conversation with Rollie Wesen that provided attendees with a preview of the content of our 2021 Annual Report, due to release on our website at the end of this month.

The JPF is partnering with Rouxbe Online Culinary School to provide an online course: Jacques Pépin, A Legacy of Technique. The course offers fans and aspiring cooks the opportunity to learn to cook more like Jacques, and even earn a college credited certificate!

Just in time for the holidays, The JPF released “Cook with Jacques Pépin & Friends: Volume 3” on Giving Tuesday. What started as a pandemic pivot to enrich lives and strengthen communities through culinary education has grown into a recurring series.
