Title: Emeril is Emeril
Product review: This book is a good compilation of the recipes from his TV show. Most of these you can download from the Food TV web site for free. This book just puts it all together, which is why I bought it. The recipes exemplify Emeril cooking pure and simple. As long as you follow the guidelines for "fresh" herbs, the recipes come out very good. Some can be time consuming and some are fairly easy. I labored through the Duck and Sausage Etouffee and am glad I did. I learned the different flavors of the rue. The flavors can't be beat - but it takes time. I think this is a good addition to anyone's cookbook library. I also have his New New Orleans cook book and Louisiana Real and Rustic. I have favorites in all of them. If you enjoy getting on that cutting edge of "gourmet cooking," I think you will enjoy this book.
