In stacks of novels, elegant ladies sup on consommé served in fragile bone china bowls before traipsing across polished floors to wilt onto fainting couches. And because the ideal consommé contains nothing other than exquisitely clear and sublimely seasoned liquid (possibly served with equally exquisite garnishes, like airy quenelles or tiny raviolini) it's basically the most refined soup ever. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's my romantic ideal of consommé. And it's one which jockeys impossibly with the complex reality handed to me in culinary school. There was so much emphasis on breaking (yet not breaking) the clarifying \"raft,\" the insistence on never allowing the stock to boil, and the overwhelming feeling that if you looked cross-eyed at your consommé you'd ruin it.

In stacks of novels, elegant ladies sup on consommé served in fragile bone china bowls before traipsing across polished floors to wilt onto fainting couches. And because the ideal consommé contains nothing other than exquisitely clear and sublimely seasoned liquid (possibly served with equally exquisite garnishes, like airy quenelles or tiny raviolini) it's basically the most refined soup ever. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's my romantic ideal of consommé. And it's one which jockeys impossibly with the complex reality handed to me in culinary school. There was so much emphasis on breaking (yet not breaking) the clarifying \"raft,\" the insistence on never allowing the stock to boil, and the overwhelming feeling that if you looked cross-eyed at your consommé you'd ruin it. As a result, during those nine sweaty months, I both longed for and dreaded making this genteel dish. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enter \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/Jacques-P%C3%A9pin-New-Complete-Techniques/dp/1579129110\">\u003cem>Jacques Pépin Complete New Techniques\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, which, weighing in at close to six pounds, is a serious book for serious cooks.

Photo courtesy of Jacques Pepin\" width=\"300\" height=\"417\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-47602\">\u003c/a>In 1960, Jacques Pépin had been living in the States for just a few months, working for Henri Soulé at Le Pavillon, where Manhattan's crème de la crème swapped society gossip over \u003cem>quenelles de brochet.\u003c/em> It was a quick way to learn the who's who of New York's many overlapping power circles, including the media. Through \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2012/05/09/dining/craig-claiborne-a-force-in-the-food-revolution.html\">Craig Claiborne\u003c/a>, the influential food editor of the New York Times, Pepin become friends with Helen McCully, the editor of the then-popular magazines McCall's and House Beautiful. When she snagged an advance review copy of Child's \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0375413405/kqedorg-20\">Mastering the Art of French Cooking\u003c/a>, she took it straight to Pépin. As Pépin recalled in \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/15/dining/jacques-pepin-recalls-friendship-with-julia-child.html?_r=1&ref=dining\">Memories of a Friend, Sidekick, and Foil,\u003c/a> McCully told him that the author was from California, and was \"a very tall woman with a really terrible voice.\" She invited Child over, Pépin cooked, they talked food and France and a lifelong professional partnership was born, thanks to their dedication to classic French cooking and their mutual respect and fondness for each other's home countries. (Pépin left Le Pavillon not long after, lured away by his colleague Pierre Franey, who had been Le Pavillon's executive chef, to work in culinary development for the Howard Johnson's motel and restaurant chain.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When their schedules allowed, they taught classes together at Boston University, where Pépin was teaching, or did tag-team cooking demonstrations. Child, a public-television star since the early 60s, took their friendship onto the screen, pairing with him for \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/food/shows/julia-child-cooking-in-concert-series/\">Cooking in Concert\u003c/a>, two he-says, she-says specials that were filmed at Boston University and aired on PBS. He was precise, with warp-speed knife skills; she supplied the gently teasing banter and grand dame presence. Here, Julia and Jacques melt, whisk, and bake their way through an extravagant amount of butter as they prepare a lavish meal for formal entertaining: rolled flounder fillets with beurre blanc, standing rib roast of beef, asparagus, mashed potatoes, and strawberry tarts. \u003cbr clear=\"all\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe width=\"640\" height=\"448\" src=\"http://player.pbs.org/viralplayer/2257769718/\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" seamless allowfullscreen>\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their rapport and the information-packed usefulness of their decades of mutual experience led to Pépin making \u003ca href=\"http://video.pbs.org/video/2256986760/\">lobster souffle\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://video.pbs.org/video/2256997672/\">braised sweetbreads in puff pastry with black truffle Madeira sauce\u003c/a> on \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/food/shows/julia-child-cooking-with-master-chefs/\">Julia Child: Cooking with Master Chefs\u003c/a> and then to the popular series \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/tv/programs/index.jsp?pgmid=8623\">Julia and Jacques Cooking at Home.\u003c/a> Filmed in Child's \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/food/features/smithsonian-julia-child-kitchen/\">kitchen\u003c/a> in Cambridge, which had been revamped to accommodate the demands of cooking on camera, the show ran for 22 episodes and won both an Emmy and a James Beard Foundation Award. \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0375404317/kqedorg-20\">Julia and Jacques Cooking at Home\u003c/a>, a cookbook of recipes extrapolated from the shows, followed in 1999.

Her parents took her to his restaurant in Tijuana when she was just nine years old. She says, \"You don't want herbs and anchovies and things like that in it, those would adulterate it.\" Jacques, on the other hand, loves anchovies in his Caesar salad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n18 to 24 crisp, narrow leaves from the hearts of 2 heads of romaine lettuce, or a package of romaine hearts (about 1 pound)\u003cbr>\n1 cup plain toasted croutons (see recipe below)\u003cbr>\n1 large clove garlic, peeled\u003cbr>\n1/4 cup or more excellent olive oil\u003cbr>\nSalt\u003cbr>\n1 large very fresh egg\u003cbr>\nFreshly ground black pepper\u003cbr>\n1 whole lemon, halved and seeded\u003cbr>\nWorcestershire sauce\u003cbr>\n2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese, imported Parmagiano Reggiano only\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. From a large head of romaine lettuce, remove the outside leaves until you get down to the cone where the leaves are 4 to 7 inches in length -- you'll want 6 to 8 of these leaves per serving. Separate the leaves and wash them carefully to keep them whole, roll them loosely in clean towels, and keep refrigerated until serving time. (Save the remains for other salads; fortunately, romaine keeps reasonably well under refrigeration.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. To flavor the croutons, crush the garlic clove with the flat of a chef's knife, sprinkle on 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and mince well. Pour about a tablespoon of olive oil on the garlic, and mash again with the knife, rubbing and pressing to make a soft puree.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Scrape the puree into the frying pan, add another tablespoon of oil, and warm over low-medium heat. Add the croutons and toss for a minute or two to infuse them with the garlic oil, then remove from the heat. (For a milder garlic flavor, you can strain the puree through a small sieve into a pan before adding the extra oil and croutons. Discard the bits of garlic.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. To coddle the egg, bring a small saucepan of water to the simmer. Pierce the large end of the egg with a pushpin to prevent cracking, then simmer it for exactly 1 minute. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Dress the salad just before serving. Have ready all the dressing ingredients and a salad fork and spoon for tossing. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the romaine leaves and toss to coat, lifting the leaves from the bottom and turning them toward you, so they tumble over like a wave. Sprinkle with a generous pinch of salt and several grinds of pepper, toss once or twice, then add the lemon juice and several drops of Worcestershire, and toss again.

Produced by Mike Klozar.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She was the Paris-loving home cook from California who made French cuisine accessible to generations of supermarket shoppers. Apprenticed to restaurant work at 13, once the private chef to Charles de Gaulle, he was the French-born, classically trained chef who made America his home. Their friendship stretched through decades, through hundreds of meals and over many bottles of wine. But how did culinary icons \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/food/juliachild/\">Julia Child\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/food/jacquespepin/\">Jacques Pépin\u003c/a> first meet? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/08/julia-jacques.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/08/julia-jacques.jpg\" alt=\"Julia Child and Jacques Pepin.

Photo courtesy of Jacques Pepin\" width=\"300\" height=\"417\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-47602\">\u003c/a>In 1960, Jacques Pépin had been living in the States for just a few months, working for Henri Soulé at Le Pavillon, where Manhattan's crème de la crème swapped society gossip over \u003cem>quenelles de brochet.\u003c/em> It was a quick way to learn the who's who of New York's many overlapping power circles, including the media. Through \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2012/05/09/dining/craig-claiborne-a-force-in-the-food-revolution.html\">Craig Claiborne\u003c/a>, the influential food editor of the New York Times, Pepin become friends with Helen McCully, the editor of the then-popular magazines McCall's and House Beautiful. When she snagged an advance review copy of Child's \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0375413405/kqedorg-20\">Mastering the Art of French Cooking\u003c/a>, she took it straight to Pépin. As Pépin recalled in \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/15/dining/jacques-pepin-recalls-friendship-with-julia-child.html?_r=1&ref=dining\">Memories of a Friend, Sidekick, and Foil,\u003c/a> McCully told him that the author was from California, and was \"a very tall woman with a really terrible voice.\" She invited Child over, Pépin cooked, they talked food and France and a lifelong professional partnership was born, thanks to their dedication to classic French cooking and their mutual respect and fondness for each other's home countries. (Pépin left Le Pavillon not long after, lured away by his colleague Pierre Franey, who had been Le Pavillon's executive chef, to work in culinary development for the Howard Johnson's motel and restaurant chain.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When their schedules allowed, they taught classes together at Boston University, where Pépin was teaching, or did tag-team cooking demonstrations. Child, a public-television star since the early 60s, took their friendship onto the screen, pairing with him for \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/food/shows/julia-child-cooking-in-concert-series/\">Cooking in Concert\u003c/a>, two he-says, she-says specials that were filmed at Boston University and aired on PBS. He was precise, with warp-speed knife skills; she supplied the gently teasing banter and grand dame presence. Here, Julia and Jacques melt, whisk, and bake their way through an extravagant amount of butter as they prepare a lavish meal for formal entertaining: rolled flounder fillets with beurre blanc, standing rib roast of beef, asparagus, mashed potatoes, and strawberry tarts. \u003cbr clear=\"all\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe width=\"640\" height=\"448\" src=\"http://player.pbs.org/viralplayer/2257769718/\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" seamless allowfullscreen>\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Her parents took her to his restaurant in Tijuana when she was just nine years old. She says, \"You don't want herbs and anchovies and things like that in it, those would adulterate it.\" Jacques, on the other hand, loves anchovies in his Caesar salad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n18 to 24 crisp, narrow leaves from the hearts of 2 heads of romaine lettuce, or a package of romaine hearts (about 1 pound)\u003cbr>\n1 cup plain toasted croutons (see recipe below)\u003cbr>\n1 large clove garlic, peeled\u003cbr>\n1/4 cup or more excellent olive oil\u003cbr>\nSalt\u003cbr>\n1 large very fresh egg\u003cbr>\nFreshly ground black pepper\u003cbr>\n1 whole lemon, halved and seeded\u003cbr>\nWorcestershire sauce\u003cbr>\n2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese, imported Parmagiano Reggiano only\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. From a large head of romaine lettuce, remove the outside leaves until you get down to the cone where the leaves are 4 to 7 inches in length -- you'll want 6 to 8 of these leaves per serving. Separate the leaves and wash them carefully to keep them whole, roll them loosely in clean towels, and keep refrigerated until serving time. (Save the remains for other salads; fortunately, romaine keeps reasonably well under refrigeration.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. To flavor the croutons, crush the garlic clove with the flat of a chef's knife, sprinkle on 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and mince well. Pour about a tablespoon of olive oil on the garlic, and mash again with the knife, rubbing and pressing to make a soft puree.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Scrape the puree into the frying pan, add another tablespoon of oil, and warm over low-medium heat. Add the croutons and toss for a minute or two to infuse them with the garlic oil, then remove from the heat. (For a milder garlic flavor, you can strain the puree through a small sieve into a pan before adding the extra oil and croutons. Discard the bits of garlic.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. To coddle the egg, bring a small saucepan of water to the simmer. Pierce the large end of the egg with a pushpin to prevent cracking, then simmer it for exactly 1 minute. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Dress the salad just before serving. Have ready all the dressing ingredients and a salad fork and spoon for tossing. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the romaine leaves and toss to coat, lifting the leaves from the bottom and turning them toward you, so they tumble over like a wave. Sprinkle with a generous pinch of salt and several grinds of pepper, toss once or twice, then add the lemon juice and several drops of Worcestershire, and toss again. Taste for seasoning and add more if needed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Crack the egg and drop it right on the romaine leaves, then toss to break it up and coat the leaves. Sprinkle on the cheese, toss briefly, then add the croutons (and the garlicky bits in the pan, if you wish) and toss for the last time, just to mix them into the salad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. Arrange 6 or more leaves in a single layer on individual plates, scatter the croutons all around, and serve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Homemade Croutons\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThese croutons are essential for our Caesar salad and a fine addition to a basic green salad as well as soups.

Lucianovic’s first book, \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/Suffering-Succotash-Picky-Eaters-Understand/dp/0399537503\">\"Suffering Succotash: A Picky Eater’s Quest to Understand Why We Hate the Foods We Hate,\"\u003c/a> will generate a collective fist-pump. “See? See? We’re not crazy!” I can imagine them shouting, slamming the book down among doubters at the dinner tables where they’ve been made to feel like freaks for their whole lives. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, for a non-picky eater like me, reading \"Suffering Succotash\" is a necessary, if guilt-inducing wake-up call: all those picky eaters I’ve known and rolled my eyes over are not necessarily passive-aggressive control freaks who enjoy wielding power at the dinner table, nor are they xenophobes or any of the other horrible things I’m sure I’ve subconsciously assumed about them. Rather, they are just like anyone else who is not in entire control of their own body. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fortunately, Stephanie delivers the news with such aplomb and humor that I didn’t wind up self-flagellating with a garland of raisins for too long. There are many laugh-out loud moments in the book -- only Stephanie could write a diatribe on her mother’s nose for cat pee, after all -- but just as important, there’s more than a little something for everyone in the book (after all, everyone eats), including an introduction to the little known “sixth taste”; what tests are necessary to maybe identify a true “super taster”; useful differentiations between “lying picky eaters” and “honest picky eaters”; why from a bio-evolutionary perspective picky eating might well be advantageous; and how many a picky eater, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2005/02/24/the-picky-years/\">Stephanie included\u003c/a>, can wind up morphing into a full-blown foodie. Oh, and some kick-ass recipes (I’ve already made Stephanie’s standby \u003ca href=\"http://www.food52.com/recipes/2625_roasted_broccoli_with_smoked_paprika_vinaigrette_and_marcona_almonds\">roasted broccoli\u003c/a>, originally from Food 52, and I’m moving on tonight to her \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2007/07/12/okra-ok/\">sautéed okra\u003c/a>. \u003cbr clear=\"all\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What follows is a Q & A with Stephanie. \u003cem>Full disclosure:\u003c/em> I’m mentioned in her acknowledgements due to a quick allusion in \"Suffering Succotash\" to just how vain I am about my bookshelves, a characteristic I hope at least I gain points for at least being honest about it, just like an “honest picky eater.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/07/StephanieLucianovic560.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/07/StephanieLucianovic500.jpg\" alt=\"Stephanie V.W.

Photo: Sam Breach\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The title of your book, \"Suffering Succotash,\" is so perfect and so smart. Did you struggle to come up with that title, or did it just come to you in a flash one day?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was simply brainstorming titles and subtitles one day, and among other less inspiring results like \"Confessions of a Picky Eater\" and \"From Picky to Foodie, My Painful Journey of Food Waste,\" I scribbled down \"Suffering Succotash.\" It was just working title for a long time, totally a placeholder, and I didn't want to get too attached to it. Given that it is the trademark expression of Loony Tunes' Sylvester the Cat, I really didn't think we'd be allowed to use it for the book. Luckily for me, it turns out that not even the Warner Brothers folks can lay original claim to \"Suffering Succotash,\" because it's a minced oath, which is an expression that the devout came up when they needed to swear but didn't particularly feel like going to Hell. \"Suffering Succotash\" is the de-brimstoned version of \"Suffering Savior\" -- just as \"Gosh\" or \"Golly\" subs in for \"God.\" Other lesser known minced oaths include \"Cheese and rice\" for \"Jesus Christ,\" \"Gadzooks\" for \"Gods hooks,\" which refers to the nails on Christ's cross, and \"criminy\" for \"Christ's money,\" aka the thirty pieces of silver Judas pocketed to betray Jesus. You know, good fun. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You take such care in the book to make clear that for picky eaters, it's not so much that they won't eat certain foods, but more that they can't -- a very important distinction and one that takes non-picky eaters like me by surprise and leaves us feeling a bit like we've been horribly insensitive and ignorant. What are other important \"takeaway\" messages about picky eaters that you think non-picky eaters really must know?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Being a picky eater is not fun. In fact, it really sucks. It sucks to be scared of restaurants, it sucks to get anxious when traveling in foreign locations, it sucks to avoid family gatherings, but what sucks the most is the shame and embarrassment picky eaters carry. Picky eating is not a choice. Picky eaters are not being whiny or high maintenance or xenophobic, they are reacting to their instincts, their biology, their genetics, and their past experiences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, people have varying success when it comes to \"getting over\" picky eating. Just because some people do doesn't mean all can.

If you are picky, so be it. Own it.

It's time someone told their story and put a kibosh on all those \"picky eaters are sooooo annoying\" articles that get written every holiday season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Imagine for a moment that you are sent off to a desert island for three months, and your only food supplies to keep you going for those three months are the foods you’ve declared in \"Suffering Succotash\" you hate most: raisins, bananas, oatmeal, cream of wheat, grits, polenta, the skin of tomatoes, caviar, offal, cooked green peppers, cooked green beans, particular fish, figs, dates, particular melons, stews, braises, gelatinous desserts, rabbit, veal, dill, black licorice, tarragon, lemongrass, coleslaw, mozzarella cheese, mayonnaise, rice pudding, particular leafy greens, cooked cherries, fruit flavored chocolate, fried rice with peas and carrots, tapioca, cream sauces, and grape leaves and seaweed. What would you do?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Starve. No, I'm kidding. That's the list of foods I prefer not to have in my mouth if I had the choice. However since I've overcome my hatred of so many other things, I'm pretty confident I would do okay on a weird-ass island that managed to produce cream of wheat AND mayonnaise with minimal gagging. But not raisins. Raisins are pure evil.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I guess I would just have to get myself in \"I eat this or I die\" mindset. It would be a far more powerful motivator than trying to impress my boyfriend, which was my original impetus for getting over certain food hates. I would take deep breaths and try relax. I would have to forget the whole \"marooned on a desert island with no hope of rescue\" thing, which would probably be at odds with the \"trying to relax\" thing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the face of certain death by starvation, I don't think it would be too difficult for anyone to eat the things one hates the most.

Lucianovic’s first book, \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/Suffering-Succotash-Picky-Eaters-Understand/dp/0399537503\">\"Suffering Succotash: A Picky Eater’s Quest to Understand Why We Hate the Foods We Hate,\"\u003c/a> will generate a collective fist-pump. “See? See? We’re not crazy!” I can imagine them shouting, slamming the book down among doubters at the dinner tables where they’ve been made to feel like freaks for their whole lives. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, for a non-picky eater like me, reading \"Suffering Succotash\" is a necessary, if guilt-inducing wake-up call: all those picky eaters I’ve known and rolled my eyes over are not necessarily passive-aggressive control freaks who enjoy wielding power at the dinner table, nor are they xenophobes or any of the other horrible things I’m sure I’ve subconsciously assumed about them. Rather, they are just like anyone else who is not in entire control of their own body. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fortunately, Stephanie delivers the news with such aplomb and humor that I didn’t wind up self-flagellating with a garland of raisins for too long. There are many laugh-out loud moments in the book -- only Stephanie could write a diatribe on her mother’s nose for cat pee, after all -- but just as important, there’s more than a little something for everyone in the book (after all, everyone eats), including an introduction to the little known “sixth taste”; what tests are necessary to maybe identify a true “super taster”; useful differentiations between “lying picky eaters” and “honest picky eaters”; why from a bio-evolutionary perspective picky eating might well be advantageous; and how many a picky eater, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2005/02/24/the-picky-years/\">Stephanie included\u003c/a>, can wind up morphing into a full-blown foodie. Oh, and some kick-ass recipes (I’ve already made Stephanie’s standby \u003ca href=\"http://www.food52.com/recipes/2625_roasted_broccoli_with_smoked_paprika_vinaigrette_and_marcona_almonds\">roasted broccoli\u003c/a>, originally from Food 52, and I’m moving on tonight to her \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2007/07/12/okra-ok/\">sautéed okra\u003c/a>. \u003cbr clear=\"all\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What follows is a Q & A with Stephanie. \u003cem>Full disclosure:\u003c/em> I’m mentioned in her acknowledgements due to a quick allusion in \"Suffering Succotash\" to just how vain I am about my bookshelves, a characteristic I hope at least I gain points for at least being honest about it, just like an “honest picky eater.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/07/StephanieLucianovic560.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/07/StephanieLucianovic500.jpg\" alt=\"Stephanie V.W.

Did you struggle to come up with that title, or did it just come to you in a flash one day?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was simply brainstorming titles and subtitles one day, and among other less inspiring results like \"Confessions of a Picky Eater\" and \"From Picky to Foodie, My Painful Journey of Food Waste,\" I scribbled down \"Suffering Succotash.\" It was just working title for a long time, totally a placeholder, and I didn't want to get too attached to it. Given that it is the trademark expression of Loony Tunes' Sylvester the Cat, I really didn't think we'd be allowed to use it for the book. Luckily for me, it turns out that not even the Warner Brothers folks can lay original claim to \"Suffering Succotash,\" because it's a minced oath, which is an expression that the devout came up when they needed to swear but didn't particularly feel like going to Hell. \"Suffering Succotash\" is the de-brimstoned version of \"Suffering Savior\" -- just as \"Gosh\" or \"Golly\" subs in for \"God.\" Other lesser known minced oaths include \"Cheese and rice\" for \"Jesus Christ,\" \"Gadzooks\" for \"Gods hooks,\" which refers to the nails on Christ's cross, and \"criminy\" for \"Christ's money,\" aka the thirty pieces of silver Judas pocketed to betray Jesus. You know, good fun. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You take such care in the book to make clear that for picky eaters, it's not so much that they won't eat certain foods, but more that they can't -- a very important distinction and one that takes non-picky eaters like me by surprise and leaves us feeling a bit like we've been horribly insensitive and ignorant. What are other important \"takeaway\" messages about picky eaters that you think non-picky eaters really must know?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Being a picky eater is not fun. In fact, it really sucks. It sucks to be scared of restaurants, it sucks to get anxious when traveling in foreign locations, it sucks to avoid family gatherings, but what sucks the most is the shame and embarrassment picky eaters carry. Picky eating is not a choice. Picky eaters are not being whiny or high maintenance or xenophobic, they are reacting to their instincts, their biology, their genetics, and their past experiences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, people have varying success when it comes to \"getting over\" picky eating. Just because some people do doesn't mean all can. I'd really like non-picky eaters to think of foods they really hate and imagine what life would be like for them if those foods were the only foods out there. Food preferences are subjective, just like music preferences. You wouldn't call me whiny, high maintenance, or tween-o-phobic just because I don't like \u003ca href=\"http://www.mileycyrus.com/\">Miley Cyrus\u003c/a>, would you?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No one would choose to be a picky eater. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What about picky eating in other cultures, specifically in ones where there is far less variety in terms of diet?

I wish I could be more original, but there it is. Watching him with Julia Child in their WGBH show \u003ca href=\"http://www.hulu.com/julia-and-jacques-cooking-at-home\">\u003cem>Julia & Jacques Cooking at Home\u003c/em>\u003c/a> in 2000 was one of my earlier impetuses to start cooking and trying more foods to roust me from the picky rut I'd been in for 27 years. Seven years later while working with him on his KQED show \u003ca href=\"http://www.grubreport.com/soupdujour/fastfood.html\">\u003cem>More Fast Food My Way\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, Jacques said something to me around which I built an entire chapter of my first book. Today, I was able to hand Jacques a galley copy of that book and sit down with him for an hour to talk about picky eating, foie gras, and Paula Deen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I really wish I could write out Jacques' voluptuous accent phonetically without it looking like I'm making fun of him. His cadence is just so enchanting, it makes you want to sit back with a glass of slow-sipping Calvados, close your eyes, and simply listen to all his stories.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sadly, with no Calvados on hand and an interview to conduct, I jump right into our interview by asking Jacques to elaborate on something he wrote in the foreword of \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/essentialpepin/book-dvds/\">\u003cem>Essential Pépin\u003c/em>\u003c/a>: \"The appetites of a young, middle-aged, and an older man are different...\" Leaning back in the couch in KQED's \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/checkplease/2006/10/25/its-not-easy-being-green/\">greenroom\u003c/a>, Jacques notes that as you get older your metabolism changes, but also that, \"as a young chef, you tend to add to the plate. To add, to add, to add! And as you get older, you start to clean up, clean up, clean up the plate! Until you are left with the essential thing: \u003cem>that\u003c/em> tomato right there, \u003cem>that\u003c/em> olive oil, at \u003cem>that\u003c/em> temperature.\" I wonder aloud if this a function of being a young chef, of trying to impress people. \"It's a function of life,\" Jacques tells me and likens it to being a painter. \"An artist is going to clean, a kind of a purification. You go through a process to get more to the essential of whatever you are working on.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One could hypothesize that so-called picky children are like this. They start with the essentials, the simple foods, and later they will add more and more to that repertoire. When they are taking in so much information at once as they develop and grow, it makes sense that they would stick with foods that are comforting and familiar to them. Things they can count on. Some people, like me, might go into adulthood as a picky eater and, as I researched and detailed in my book, the reasons for why or how that happens are many. But concentrating on the picky children who seem to plague parents so much more today than they did back when my parents were raising me, I ask Jacques whether his daughter Claudine ever went through a picky stage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Sure, absolutely!\" Jacques responds instantly. \"Claudine loved string bean stew and all of a sudden, she hated string beans. And I said, 'Fine, you don't have to eat it.' And certainly, she loved snails, because she was three years old and she loved garlic and the butter and all that too, until she was six or seven and then she's at school and her friends said, 'YUCK! You're eating that?' And that's it -- no more of them!\" Jacques laughs and acknowledges that when kids reach a certain age, they want to conform to the other children around them. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like my parents, Jacques' approach to Claudine going off string beans and escargot was to shrug it off. It didn't bother him, and he didn't get upset about it. Additionally, when it turned out that Claudine favored more unusual vegetables -- artichokes and Brussels sprouts -- Jacques didn't make a big deal about that, either. \"It's not like I went on my knees and said, 'Oh, my god!' No, we didn't even mention it. It doesn't even exist. It's there, you eat it. It comes, it goes.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I mention my feeling that today's parents are way more worried about picky eaters than in the past and, along with this, they expect their children to have accomplished palates at such a young age. Jacques' response is that America is a country of extremes. We go from 15-hour dishes to 15-second microwave dinners, and that there was a time where food wasn't really discussed at the table. It was there and you ate it. However, now we have the opposite situation where we're discussing and analyzing everything and expecting our kids to do the same. \"The kid is not meant to do that. No, the kid is just meant to enjoy the food, eat it, and that's it,\" Jacques pronounces. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Claudine was a child, Jacques use to take her to New York. Just the two of them. They would stay in a hotel and go to a movie, and after the movie, they would eat at restaurants like Brasserie or Lutèce. However, Claudine was used to all those fancy restaurants by the time she was six or seven, and on one visit, Jacques -- imitating Claudine's long-suffering tones -- says she asked, \"Can we go to Burger King?\" Jacques laughs and says his response was, \"Okay, fine!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There you go, just like Julia Child proudly admitted her affinity for McDonald's fries, Jacques Pépin, the celebrated chef who cooked for the likes of Charles de Gaulle and who chefs today admire and revere, had no problem taking his daughter to Burger King.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The food follows your mood, follows the season, follows the ingredient. And don't talk too much, analyze it too much, just enjoy it.\" Laughing as he cites people's reaction to freaking out over putting butter on bread, Jacques explains, \"I say, 'Look, if you don't want to eat butter, don't eat it. Because if you eat it, you aren't going to digest it the right way. Your gastric juices are going to come back and you're going to have sourness. Don't eat it if it disturbs you. You have to be happy. You have to be happy when you cook and certainly you have to be happy when you eat.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As our conversation naturally turned from eating with kids to cooking with kids, Jacques told me that last week his eight-year-old granddaughter Shorey said to Claudine, \"Mom, I think want to cook with Jacques.\" Claudine's response was, \"Well, that's fine, darling, but I don't think you should call your grandfather Jacques.\" Shorey started crying and said, \"I didn't mean him, I want to cook with Jacques Torres!\" As Jacques pronounces this famous chocolatier's name, his voice chokes with appreciative mirth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/04/steph-jp-laughing.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/04/steph-jp-laughing.jpg\" alt=\"Stephanie Lucianovic interviews Jacques Pépin in the KQED Green Room.

And the worst is that they are righteous,\" Jacques announces. Stating that no one would pass a law banning the large industrial chicken farms that abuse their poultry with beak trimming and other atrocities, Jacques details that the way foie gras-destined ducks are treated is actually a \"natural process\" that both the Ancient Egyptians and Romans practiced long before the French came along. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Way back then it was discovered that when a duck or goose was killed at migration time, the liver was twice as large as normal. Additionally, it was noted that after migration, the liver shrank down again. Jacques explains this is the liver's reaction to the overeating that is necessary for sustained migration. The Egyptians and Romans learned they could overfeed the ducks outside of migration and achieve this same affect. \"But if you've been on a farm,\" Jacques explains, \"the first day the duck is a little surprised when they put the [gavage] in and give him the mush...but after one day, they come to get it.\" Jacques continues that the animal does not suffer, and that, in fact, there can't be any trauma whatsoever, because if the animal is traumatized, it actually compromises the quality of the liver.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That discussion emboldens me to get his opinion on another hot button food topic: Paula Deen. Reminding him that Anthony Bourdain once called Paula Deen \u003ca href=\"http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2011-08-19/news/ct-bourdain-vs-deen_1_paula-deen-anthony-bourdain-dangerous-person\">\"the worst, most dangerous person to America,\"\u003c/a> I ask Jacques whether Deen's recent diabetes diagnosis was really any of the public's business. \"No, it's not right. That's the way she cooks -- just like many other people in the South, like me occasionally -- and this is a condition people get. Who knows, if she lived in Provence and cooked the Mediterranean way that she wouldn't have the same condition anyway? We are cooks, we aren't doctors.\" As to whether or not Deen and others have any responsibility to their viewers, Jacques explained, \"I have 700 recipes and of those, some are classic French recipes and are plenty rich. I have no choice what people are going to cook. I have no choice in how much people are going to drink.\" Jacques chuckles that people freak out when he tells him he and his wife Gloria drink two bottles over dinner. \"Well yes,\" he details, \"I start cooking at 4:00 in the afternoon and I open a bottle of white wine and by the time we eat at 7:00, we've finished that bottle of white wine and we open a bottle of red wine.\" Jacques concludes this by saying he's recently decided to exclusively buy magnums of wine. \"So when my doctor asks, I will say, 'Oh, I only drink one bottle.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>A contributor to Bay Area Bites since its inception, Stephanie V.W.

It was there and you ate it. However, now we have the opposite situation where we're discussing and analyzing everything and expecting our kids to do the same. \"The kid is not meant to do that. No, the kid is just meant to enjoy the food, eat it, and that's it,\" Jacques pronounces. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Claudine was a child, Jacques use to take her to New York. Just the two of them. They would stay in a hotel and go to a movie, and after the movie, they would eat at restaurants like Brasserie or Lutèce. However, Claudine was used to all those fancy restaurants by the time she was six or seven, and on one visit, Jacques -- imitating Claudine's long-suffering tones -- says she asked, \"Can we go to Burger King?\" Jacques laughs and says his response was, \"Okay, fine!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There you go, just like Julia Child proudly admitted her affinity for McDonald's fries, Jacques Pépin, the celebrated chef who cooked for the likes of Charles de Gaulle and who chefs today admire and revere, had no problem taking his daughter to Burger King.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The food follows your mood, follows the season, follows the ingredient. And don't talk too much, analyze it too much, just enjoy it.\" Laughing as he cites people's reaction to freaking out over putting butter on bread, Jacques explains, \"I say, 'Look, if you don't want to eat butter, don't eat it. Because if you eat it, you aren't going to digest it the right way. Your gastric juices are going to come back and you're going to have sourness. Don't eat it if it disturbs you. You have to be happy. You have to be happy when you cook and certainly you have to be happy when you eat.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As our conversation naturally turned from eating with kids to cooking with kids, Jacques told me that last week his eight-year-old granddaughter Shorey said to Claudine, \"Mom, I think want to cook with Jacques.\" Claudine's response was, \"Well, that's fine, darling, but I don't think you should call your grandfather Jacques.\" Shorey started crying and said, \"I didn't mean him, I want to cook with Jacques Torres!\" As Jacques pronounces this famous chocolatier's name, his voice chokes with appreciative mirth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/04/steph-jp-laughing.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/04/steph-jp-laughing.jpg\" alt=\"Stephanie Lucianovic interviews Jacques Pépin in the KQED Green Room.

Photo by Wendy Goodfriend\" width=\"560\" height=\"314\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-42315\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I didn't intend to get into food politics, but after Jacques tells me his publishers thought skinning a rabbit on the DVD accompaniment to \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/essentialpepin/\">\u003cem>Essential Pepin\u003c/em>\u003c/a> was too traumatizing (adding that if he killed and skinned a rabbit on stage, \"I would probably be assassinated more than if I killed my wife!\"), Jacques himself brings up the \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2012/04/13/forbidden-foie-gras/\">California foie gras ban\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They have no idea what they are talking about. And the worst is that they are righteous,\" Jacques announces. Stating that no one would pass a law banning the large industrial chicken farms that abuse their poultry with beak trimming and other atrocities, Jacques details that the way foie gras-destined ducks are treated is actually a \"natural process\" that both the Ancient Egyptians and Romans practiced long before the French came along. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Way back then it was discovered that when a duck or goose was killed at migration time, the liver was twice as large as normal. Additionally, it was noted that after migration, the liver shrank down again. Jacques explains this is the liver's reaction to the overeating that is necessary for sustained migration. The Egyptians and Romans learned they could overfeed the ducks outside of migration and achieve this same affect. \"But if you've been on a farm,\" Jacques explains, \"the first day the duck is a little surprised when they put the [gavage] in and give him the mush...but after one day, they come to get it.\" Jacques continues that the animal does not suffer, and that, in fact, there can't be any trauma whatsoever, because if the animal is traumatized, it actually compromises the quality of the liver.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That discussion emboldens me to get his opinion on another hot button food topic: Paula Deen. Reminding him that Anthony Bourdain once called Paula Deen \u003ca href=\"http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2011-08-19/news/ct-bourdain-vs-deen_1_paula-deen-anthony-bourdain-dangerous-person\">\"the worst, most dangerous person to America,\"\u003c/a> I ask Jacques whether Deen's recent diabetes diagnosis was really any of the public's business. \"No, it's not right. That's the way she cooks -- just like many other people in the South, like me occasionally -- and this is a condition people get. Who knows, if she lived in Provence and cooked the Mediterranean way that she wouldn't have the same condition anyway? We are cooks, we aren't doctors.\" As to whether or not Deen and others have any responsibility to their viewers, Jacques explained, \"I have 700 recipes and of those, some are classic French recipes and are plenty rich. I have no choice what people are going to cook. I have no choice in how much people are going to drink.\" Jacques chuckles that people freak out when he tells him he and his wife Gloria drink two bottles over dinner. \"Well yes,\" he details, \"I start cooking at 4:00 in the afternoon and I open a bottle of white wine and by the time we eat at 7:00, we've finished that bottle of white wine and we open a bottle of red wine.\" Jacques concludes this by saying he's recently decided to exclusively buy magnums of wine. \"So when my doctor asks, I will say, 'Oh, I only drink one bottle.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
