Jamie has such a personable and engaging style that elevates, not just the celebrated salad, but also the viewer who starts to believe they too can create something fantastical and delicious on a plate!

I simply love grilling and this gives me one more way to make a great meal!!! Can’t wait to try it with all kinds of different veg!! Thank you!!!
OMG! I remember my Japanese mother-in-law made wonderful soup from leftover pieces and we ate it in the kotatsu, the heated table used during winter.
I love Jamie’s bread/Pizza dough recipe. I grew up having pizza night every Friday night. we always made our pizzas. I wish I had his recipe at that time. Yummy!
I will serve this to my vegetarian sister soon! His vegetarian recipes have a WOW factor that impresses everyone and makes vegetarian food a joy, not a sentence.
I never dared to make pesto before but, Jamie made it so easy and I make it now. I’ve made my style of pizza with pesto as the sauce is wonderful. Thank you for opening up a world of cooking to me.
Jamie takes a wonderfully sensual pleasure in the food…the smell, the look, the texture, and it ensures his recipes are super yummy and beautiful. My pleasure is in the visual (I’m an artist and use fruit as inspiration) so I share that sensual pleasure. He can make anything, even the simplest, really special. He’s a special guy… always was, always will be.
Very inspiring to hear Jamie Oliver’s story. I love his presentations and great to see his relationship with Genaro
Jamie, I love your story. It is moving, and you are so genuine. Thank you for caring, loving, and wanting to make a difference in the world, your country, and in me. I had lost when America quit following you. You changed my life when I found you again and I love to cook again. I am eating the healthiest I have ever eaten. Thank you for being you. Kathleen in Seattle
Wonderful life story – with so much more story to come. Jamie inspired me in 2010 to change careers and become a chef in order to change American school food. He continues to be an inspiration.
Jamie Oliver 2.0 classes please-he’s the best of the best of the best here.
Wonderful ! … thank you for sharing the Jamie time-line!
“Where do you ever find another Jamie?” I echo Gennaro’s statement. Jamie is a shining star, a hero to all who know him, a good man. Loving this documentary – and have to say: Drums TOO, Jamie? Sending love and thanks from NC.
You are such an inspiring person, love what you do, thank you.
Great sharing thanks Jamie, I love your heart for serving people and sharing your knowledge and enthusiasm.
Great recipe! I love the techniques. So much better than I have made before. Thank you!
Amazing! Palak paneer has been my son’s fave. Today I made this with kale for us. Delicious!
Amazing and inspiring! Saag paneer and saffron chicken korma for us tonight.
Perfect. I liked the recipes because I don’t eat meat, but I’ve already thought of all the recipes using other ingredients.
What a wonderful steak. I must get a grip on what is ribeye. I think a lot of butchers sell what may be classed as ribeye but doesn’t have the marbling & texture. Great to see what it looks like.
Absolutely an enchanting chef! Wonderful explanation of heat and a very inspiring man on the beauty of life and food.
Delicious! Made such a difference in dishes I’ve made for years.
Fabulous! I wish I was there, at this wonderful place with this gorgeous landscape and, above all, doing such recipes like these at this wonderful open-air kitchen!!!
This looks wonderfully flavourful, fresh, and so simple! I can’t wait to try it out, perfect recipe for the Summer.
I love the way you cook Erez! It is fresh and simple I can’t wait to make the hummus. I will soak my chickpeas today! thank you.
I am a professional chef and am getting much out of this! Every one of these lessons is a joy to behold! I have encouraged my sister and daughter to sign up. For foodies, this is pretty much food porn! But seriously, these are first-rate classes/demos and you will have learned much in the process. Thank you so much for doing this!
I love the way he cooks he puts so much love and creativity into it. I enjoyed it and want to apply more zest to my cooking.
I would love more of such simple but wonderful dishes in Jamie’s program.
I loved this recipe. Chimichurri came out perfect, great taste & my steak was perfect. Thanks, Chef 🥰
I love Francis ‘s laid back strategy so calming to be able to watch and learn his techniques. Thank you.
Really enjoyed — will listen to again and make some of his great potatoes
Around here we get lovely fruit in the fall. This recipe is perfect for honoring the bounty.
As a whole food plant-based eater, that is the most spectacular meal I have ever seen being prepared, I can’t wait to try this one =, but watching you Jamie, and your enthusiasm, ease, and delight in all of this made me emotional TBH. Thank you a million times over for sharing this with us. xo
I made the focaccia and 4 pizzas from the principal bread dough I was amazed at the results. The pizza came out exactly how I like a pizza and the focaccia was excellent. There is a feeling of satisfaction creating something with your bare hands and not a machine I have bought some bread pans and will be trying to make loaves of bread. Once I perfect this, my next goal is sourdough something I always wanted to make
Just tried for the 1st time ever and I have bread and focaccia!!! However, would it be possible to mention the electric oven temperature and timings?
The taste was great. Have to improve my ‘closing’ skill as some did break 🙁 but happy with these and will try again! A lot of dough remaining though for the amount of filling suggested in the recipe…
I enjoyed my first lesson on YesChef. There are a host of talented chefs demonstrating and providing techniques with explanations as to why they work which I found extremely helpful. Planning on enjoying my lessons over the course of my subscription. I would recommend this app to anyone who enjoys cooking and learning new recipes from around the globe.
Yes! to YesChef! I am absolutely loving it. I signed up because I want to improve my cooking skills and I loved the idea of a documentary on each chef plus their cooking lessons. I was not expecting to be SO blown away by the quality of each lesson, the filming is superb. It’s not just the chef in a kitchen demonstrating, it is a whole panorama of their life, their story, their work, their creativity. I highly recommend YesChef. The added bonus is that now I am learning while watching something, rather than just binge-watching a TV series which was also part of a personal aim for me, to watch more educational/lifestyle series. Well worth the financial cost, too, a bargain in my view. Yes!Chef.
YesChef brings cooking to life with stories about the country and the people, providing depth to your cooking experience. While it takes a bit more time than other cooking guides, it connects you to the food you are preparing.
I’m getting taught how to cook. There is a huge difference between watching someone cook a recipe on television and having someone explain how to do things. The instructors explain the reasoning behind the approach to the dish. They also include tips for success and how to manage and understand ingredients.
YesChef has opened up a new world of culinary knowledge, to augment my thirst for learning new techniques, improving my recipes, and laying a sumptuous table to enjoy with the people I love. Learning about great chefs inspires me to try new cuisines, vicariously traveling the world throughout the year by trying new dishes. Thank you for sharing your knowledge so generously, small changes to improve my cooking technique are elevating the quality of the meals already, and I still have many episodes to watch :)Thank you for sharing your knowledge so generously, small changes to improve my cooking technique are elevating the quality of the meals already, and I still have many episodes to watch 🙂
One of the best sites I’ve been on, clarity and presentation is almost perfect
Great customer service. Videos are quality and informative. They were very helpful with modifying subscription services.
The children and I have loved using this cooking platform. Easy to use and children inspired to cook with me rather than waiting for dinner to turn up, even suggesting food to cook at the weekend! Our 10-year-old has loved learning about why Jamie Oliver cooks the food he does and how he got to where he is! I am looking forward to enjoying the meals they create soon!
Love it! I enjoy watching the episodes as entertainment and then getting inspired to cook. I follow along while cooking and find the written ingredients/ instructions super helpful!
A culinary odyssey. YesChef is some of the finest content for novice and professional chefs alike. I have thoroughly enjoyed the documentaries, followed by fabulous guided recipes “in motion”. Take a journey around the world! You will be completely inspired and learn wonderful techniques and cooking styles through well-curated videography. This was a favorite gift and purchase of 2023.
YesChef was suggested to me and I was not disappointed. It showcases the inspiring journeys of these amazing chefs on their path to stardom. The insightful content, coupled with stunning visuals, provides an immersive experience into their world. It’s a must-visit for anyone passionate about cooking. A definite 5-star!
The chefs are very didactic and enthusiastic! Nancy Silverton and Jamie Oliver were the first two chefs that I watched, listened to, and learned from. Their ability to not only explain the “how to” but also demonstrate is invaluable. I look forward to following the other chefs in this program.
Bought YesChef on a whim now love the lessons and my Yorkshire puddings, as a result of tips learned, are now legendary according to my family, or known as mini volcanoes according to my grandchildren. Highly recommend down-to-earth no no-fuss easy instruction and I can use the app wherever I go be it in the kitchen or at a campfire. love it.
Inspired to make Jamie Sunday roast dinner. Great fun and it was delicious. Love alternating chef classes, and demos. Learn something new every time
I enjoy watching a long version of How to Cook. Jamie Oliver’s lesson on making pasta is a good example of taking your time to make a delicious meal. Of course, he has made this on other shows but his insights on YesChef make a difference for home cooks like me.
The kindness and care of the team at YesChef is unparalleled and the whole experience with them has been truly wonderful! This is the best gift you can give for a loved one or treat for yourself!!! Highly recommend!!!
YesChef customer service went above and beyond to make sure I was satisfied with the help they provided. I was originally not satisfied with their solution to an issue I had and I told them so. They worked through the issues with me via multiple timely messages (with a real person) to make sure I was completely satisfied. They even went beyond what would satisfy me which I was not expecting and did not ask for. That impressed me very much.
I have made several recipes from the chefs featured on this website. First, everything I’ve made turned out magnificently. Second, the walk-throughs by each chef and the lists of ingredients and step-by-step instructions are super helpful and make me feel more confident in the end product.
I love “YesChef”. It’s so nice to sit down and watch a meal being created and leave you feel confident and inspired to make it yourself and it’s a success, all due to the personal tips and tricks you learn during the lesson. Thanks to all the “YesChef” artists who make this possible.
Thanks for this documentary. Very interesting as I try to teach my son, how to cook, as Asma said. Nice story too. As an immigrant, I understand her words.
I used YesChef for years and gifted it too! The chefs are amazing, the recipes are wonderful and the videos are shot like mini-movies that will surely inspire you and allow you to experience the chefs and their world. Be ready to get swept away and take your culinary skills up another notch! Highly recommend!
Loved the content, I have signed up for other cooking online subscription content before, MasterClass, for example, and YesChef really delivers good content. I also really like the structure of how the content is organized and the feel of it as well. My personal favorite is Francis Mallman, but there are many wonderful chefs and many recipes I’ve made. Highly recommend!
The succulent flavor of the fish combined with the vegetables and hollandaise was worth the while. Skills tied to the lesson were essential to any kitchen; create a marinade, use a basket steamer, and prepare à la minute sauce. I feel better now.
Beautiful documentary! Very personal story of the chef and his cooking philosophy. Great photography and presentation. Loved it!
He’s my inspiration to use fire at my country cottage, where we have a lot of firewood (we heat the house with a wood stove and have chimneys outside for evening warmth). Almost everything I cook is farm-to-table.
There is such a strong sense of atmosphere in your kitchen and beautiful surroundings. the veg look delicious and are beautifully presented. a lovely Christmas treat. thank you for sharing.
This is immensely satisfying to watch. And now it’s time to cook!
Wow, this was beautifully, clearly, and compellingly presented. Colors, textures, and art direction jump off the screen. And he is so straightforward, getting right to the essence of what you need to know to do it in no time. The first recipe I will try. 🙂
This looks amazing. Can’t wait to grow the eggplants and make this luxurious dish.
I love the beauty, the love, and the heart of cooking, The passion for life and nature, and simple perfect moments. Francis is an artist of heart and soul, and I love to share in his essence and beauty of life. Yes, being a Chef is an amazing experience and I am so glad I joined. It has already brought me great joy.
I can watch this ten times and enjoy it more every time. FM has such a gentle charisma and makes me want to cook…
A wonderful story. I’ve been to Kolkata it’s an amazing place. I had no idea where to go or what to see. I went to paint and sketch to capture its magic. I. Wish I knew about Asma then. I cook food as my mother taught me, with love and care, I too get compliments about the food I serve. Asma is an inspiration, with such wonderful stories and experiences.
This was easy to follow, explained clearly and slowly as she cooked and I could replay and replay as I cooked. It tasted amazing, so delicious. I loved it. Thank you for your skill-sharing and delicious recipes. It tasted so fresh and real.
Watching her cook the paneer and spinach is so much better than reading a recipe. I tried this from a recipe and ended up with too much liquid. Will try it her way!
I want some of this chicken now! Looks so amazing. Worth all the prep.
This was the second recipe I cooked. The marinade was incredible, full of different flavors ( I use it in almost every dish now). I am Spanish and I can say that our food is great, but Jamaican food has been a surprise for me.
Thank you Jamie for your inspirational teachings. I have elevated every part of our home cooking thanks to your lessons. Please keep making lessons! Doc T
For the last 15 years, I have followed Jamie wherever l could, on ’24 Kitchen’, ‘food network’, and Channel 4′. Joining his online tutorials will be extremely exciting for me
Nobody makes Pasta like Jamie, I have been using his recipes since the moment he went on TV and he taught me to cook. this was fabulous thanks.
Wow…such a joy. I love that Jamie emphasizes the love with which you should make food, with a smile coming through your hands, the way you touch things and mix them…thoughtfully. Thank you so much for a wonderful lesson…almost a sermon! xxx
I have a profound appreciation for Jamie Oliver. He inspires me to the core!
I so wish I could eat this! Both my husband and I are highly intolerant to wheat. I would love to try this and other flour-based recipes but with no wheat. I know it’s a big ask, but it would make my world. Thank you 🙂
Love this video, such passion and thoughtfulness! Having a desire to put a smile on my guest’s face, making this pasta is not a labor, but a joyful gift of love to those who savor this treat. Thank you again for igniting my love of cooking.
I enjoyed this class. Listening to Jamie was easy and relaxing and he made me feel like I could make pasta like a professional with no problem. Looking forward to more classes from him.
Fantastic video class! His passion shines through. I have been making pasta and failing… In this video he explains several key points that I have heretofore been missing including 00-flour PLUS semolina Combo not either or), egg yoks (not whole eggs), when to add water. I’m so inspired. Going to go try again right now!
I have followed Jamie since his first TV cooking program. His YesChef has gone to the next level and is so inspiring and it’s great to see him continuing to encourage us to enjoy and get the best from our cooking. A big thanks to him.
This will inevitably be my 13-year-old son’s entry point into making pasta from scratch. Between the fresh pasta class and this pasta bianca, we’re golden. He just asked the other night, “Hey Dad, I want to make pasta from scratch.” Thanks for doing this with YesChef!
I can’t wait to try this. It is simple and elegant. Perfect dessert for a dinner party.
Jamie, you are such an advocate for delicious real food – it makes my heart sing. The way you take the time to explain your thought process and the reasons why you choose ingredients – just love it.
I’ve made this a few times now and people have asked me what I do that’s different which is cool but when I show them what I’ve done and how simple and quick it is they’ve gone off and made it themselves! We now have a Mexican wave of Pesto making with these fresh homemade Pesto lovers. I love it and it’s so versatile.
I love to make pesto but my son is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts so I add sunflower kernels in place of the nuts.
Oh lovely! I’ve made it before, but pine nuts are unobtainable in South Africa so I used almonds, and Parmesan cheese is so expensive here! Now I know what else I can use to make more. Thank you, Jamie!
Exciting…Jamie’s enthusiasm is contagious. Looking forward to making a pesto!
Loved this recipe. Every recipe is perfection! Not only a JOY to recreate but the flavors… Boy oh Boy!!! It was fantastic learning that one can eat the squash with the skin on. YESCHEF has me jumping off my chair and into my kitchen, then my gardens, then back to my kitchen!!! Pure inspiration!
Jamie, you should Keep making videos like that, meeting new people, and cooking for people, like in the old days, we love you being YOU! Thank you for your inspiration! That incredible spark of yours is what inspires people to cook your recipes and follow you!
Hi, we LOVE this bread as our new pizza dough and the way we know how to handle it with care to keep those amazing pockets of air has been a game changer. It would be great if it was easy to print off the recipes. Is there a way that you can do this on YesChef?
I went backward and got my answer about the home over, thanks, very helpful … and now, of course, I’m getting very very hungry! Bianca
Made Jamie’s focaccia today. So easy to do and the bread turned out fluffy and tasted delicious. I’ve attempted bread previously using various recipes and I can honestly say this is the best recipe ever. Jamie’s passion for food and teaching style is so inspiring.
Jamie has such a wonderful and different way of describing and glorifying simple foods! I love his attitude and how he teaches everything!
Jaime Oliver totally fascinates me with his technic and creativity, love it.
Once again, I cannot wait to make this…Jaime Oliver blows my mind with his out-of-the-box cooking. I just love his common sense, yet brilliant way of doing things. Love, love, love!
This makes me feel happy. Clear, simple, and explained well. Even the music! I can make these!
I’ve made his rolling-pin pasta (delicious!) I’m excited to make this pasta without a machine.
I love the space in between moments and how content you both are together.
