Jacques Pépin Talks about Getting Kids Cooking
A world-renowned cooking educator who has been in the kitchen for more than 70 years, Jacques Pépin needs no introduction. Through his 30 books and more than a dozen television series, he has taught millions of people of all ages and levels of know-how the foundations of delicious cooking.

Yesterday, CUESA was honored to host the living legend for a public cooking demonstration at the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market to share some tips and techniques using fresh produce from the market. Here at CUESA, we're especially interested in getting kids cooking, so we chatted with Jacques about his recent cookbook A Grandfather's Lessons: In the Kitchen with Shorey, and the importance of starting kids in the kitchen young.
