CARAMELS BY JACQUES PEPIN
My favorite caramel recipe so far. The sugar gets hot enough to develop its full potential complexity, and the texture is creamy, but without so much dairy taste that it overwhelms the sugary goodness. I also like that it makes a smaller amount than other recipes I've seen. Having too much of this stuff around is dangerous!

Steps:
- Prepare a standard loaf pan either by buttering it or lining it with lightly oiled parchment paper.
- Place the butter, cut into pieces, and the cream in a glass bowl and microwave until butter is melted and mixture is hot, about 90 seconds. Set mixture aside, close enough to be reached quickly.
- Combine water, corn syrup, and sugar in a straight-sided pan. Stir just enough to moisten the sugar, but not so vigorously as to slosh any sugar onto the sides of the pan, where it is likely to crystalize.
- Heat over medium-high heat until mixture begins to boil, then put on a tight-fitting lid and continue to cook for one to two minutes. The steam will condense in the lidded pan and run down the sides, washing away any sugar crystals that have formed.
- Remove the lid and attach a candy thermometer. Cook to 320 degrees F or until the sugar begins to turn amber around the edges. This may take five to six minutes, but it can happen fast, so do not allow your attention to be diverted at this point or you will have a smoking black mess on your hands.
- As soon as the thermometer hits 320 F, or you see the edges turning amber, pour the butter and cream mixture slowly into the sugar mixture, stirring to combine. Temperature will drop to just above 200°F.
- Continue cooking until the mixture reaches your desired temperature: 240 degrees F for very soft caramels, 245 for soft-but-chewy, 250 for hard.
- When the desired temperature is reached, pour the mixture immediately into the prepared loaf pan. Allow to cool until they are just slightly warm to the touch, then turn out onto parchment or waxed paper and cut to desired size. They're very rich, so I like small pieces.
- Wrap in squares of waxed paper to store. The softer ones will need to be refrigerated, the medium and hard ones will not. These also freeze well if you want to store them longer-term.

JACQUES PEPIN FAMILY-STYLE SHRIMP
Buy the large (26-30 per pound) or the jumbo (12-16 per pound) shrimp for this recipe. Jaques indicates this recipe serves 4 as a first course. I double it and use it as our meal with crusty french bread and maybe a leafy green salad.

Steps:
- Rinse the shrimp before cooking.
- Put all the court bouillon ingredients into a large stainless-steel saucepan. Bring to a boil, then cover and cook 10 to 15 minutes, at a gentle boil.
- Add the shriimp all at once, stir to mix them into the broth, and bring it back to a boil over high heat. Cove the pan and cook for only 10 seconds, then remove from the heat. Let the shrimp cool in the covered pan of broth to lukewarm.
- To serve family-style, turn both the shrimp and court bouillon, while still warm, into a large seving bowl. Into the meled butter stir fresh lemon juice, cracked black pepper, and pinches of salt, to taste. Provide everyone with a bowl for shrimp shells and a nearby ramekin of flavored butter.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Peel pears and cut in half lengthwise. Remove cores. Place pear halves flat side down in single layer in 1 or 2 large baking or gratin dishes. Sprinkle sugar over pears and dot with butter.
- Place in oven and bake 35 minutes. By this time sugar should have caramelized and pears should be tender when pierced with point of knife. If pears are not tender continue cooking 5 to 10 minutes. Pour cream over pears and return to oven. Bake 10 to 15 minutes more, basting every 5 minutes with cream.
- Cream should have reduced and thickened and turned nice ivory color. If sauce seems to be separating, add a tablespoon or two of hot water.
- Remove pears from oven, allow to cool slightly. Serve directly from baking dish.

Steps:
- In a heavy bottomed saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, brown sugar, sweetened condensed milk, corn syrup and salt. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Heat to between 234 and 240 degrees F (112 to 116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface. Cook for 2 minutes at that temperature. Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla.
- Meanwhile, butter a 9x13 inch baking pan. When the caramel is ready, pour into the buttered pan. Allow to cool completely at room temperature. Remove from the pan and cut into squares using scissors. Wrap individual pieces in waxed paper or cellophane.

Estimated Reading Time 4 mins
- Shrimp Burgers on Zucchini. “I had a dish similar to this in a small restaurant in Mexico, and at Gloria’s request, I created my own version at home.
- Grilled Snapper with Olive Topping. “I like to grill thick fillets of snapper cut from the back, as opposed to the belly. Adjust the grilling time if your fillets are thinner or thicker, or if you like your fish well-cooked instead of medium-rare, as we prefer it.
- Poulet à la Crème. “Chicken in a cream sauce is a specialty of the town where I was born, Bourg-en-Bresse. My mother’s simple recipe included a whole cut-up chicken with water, a dash of flour, and a bit of cream to finish.
- Camembert with Pistachio Crust. “I have always enjoyed a good Camembert, especially the raw-milk varieties from France. To make this version a bit more elegant, I moisten the cheese with honey, cover it with chopped pistachios, and serve it garnished with dried cranberries.”
- Apple Galette. “I like apple tarts, apple galettes, or apple pies in any form. I recently found a new way of making the crust for apple galette using pizza dough that I buy at my market.”
- Chocolate Soufflè Cake With Raspberry Sauce. Fluffy and delicate, this light cake contains fewer egg yolks and less butter than is customary. Serve at room temperature, with or without the sauce.
- Crab Cakes with Avocado Sauce. Delicate to handle, elegant and refined in taste, these crab cakes have just enough bread in them to hold together, with some mayonnaise added for moisture and flavor.
- Spinach, Ham, and Parmesan Soufflé. The Parmesan cheese and bread crumb crust and topping of this soufflé will be browner and crunchier when prepared in a gratin dish, making it easier to serve at the table.
- Lamb Navarin. A navarin is a classic lamb stew, and there are many variations. For a tasty peasant-like dish, I make mine the way my mother used to, with an unboned lamb breast.
- Skillet Duck with Red Oak Salad. Easy and delicious, this duck is cooked in much the same way as Southern fried chicken — fried in its own fat in a covered pot so steam develops, making the meat very moist and tender and the skin crisp.

Estimated Reading Time 2 mins
- Jacques Pépin’s Favorite Pound Cake. The French call pound cake quatre-quarts(“four-fourths”) because it is made with equal parts flour, sugar, eggs and butter.
- Quick-Roasted Chicken with Mustard. For this delicious, mustardy chicken, Pépin splits the chicken and cuts between the leg and shoulder joints to halve the cooking time.
- Country Apple Galette. The miraculously easy and versatile pastry dough for this galette comes together in a food processor in less than 20 seconds and can be filled with all sorts of fruits of vegetables.
- Crunchy Cabbage Salad. Sometimes Jacques Pépin makes this simple salad with just one color of cabbage; sometimes he arranges it in alternating rows of color.
- Meatballs with Tomato Sauce. Pépin uses leftover cooked meat from a roast, stew or even steak to make these meatballs.
- Maple-Baked Sweet Potatoes. The secret to these delicious sweet potatoes is to parboil them. It shortens the cooking time and keeps them moist. Related:More Recipes from Jacques Pépin.
