I prefer the Chef Jean-Pierre method [1] because he keeps it simple. He also shows why the horizontal cut really doesn't make much sense.

Yes! I've been using his method for 15 years with no regrets. I'm amazed to see he's still making videos after all this time.
He had to close down his cooking school during Covid, so he started making YT videos. I watch a number of chefs on YT, and he's easily my favorite. He's a wonderful teacher, and I've learned more from him than any other because he always reinforces concepts without being repetitive and dull. It also helps that his meals are practical for home cooks, and, overall, he's just a charming guy.
