Rating:  Summary: Keeps with Emeril's usual great format. Review: After watching several of Emeril's shows, I decided to purchase the book. I am really glad that I did. Yes, you could probably print many of the recipes from the internet, but I have found it really interesting, as well as many more recipes, that I haven't seen on his shows. There are probably a few more than necessary nonscence photo's, and it should have more photo's of the different recipes that are in the book, but I love it just the same...The recipes are basically easy to follow.

Rating:  Summary: Still a mystery to me ... Review: Emeril has to be one of the worst chefs on television. He is clumsy, sloppy and wasteful. Almost all of his dishes from his live shows are already made by someone else. He has the basic cooking skills of a 13-year old. And not to mention all those tasteless jokes. Yet, he is popular as ever, every time I turn the channel to food network, and there he is, bamming away for another hour. His popularity is a mystery to me; perhaps he makes average homemakers feel comforting because if he can become so famous with such poor culinary skills, so can anyone. Give me chefs like Jacques Pepin, and Jacques Torres, watching their shows, you will know why they are the "professional" chefs. And you will definitely learn something. If you want to know the basic hows and whys of cooking and have fun with it, pick up a copy of Alton Brown's "I'm Just Here for the Food". As far as Emeril's book goes, it is more about how much he loves himself than how much he wants to teach you.
Rating:  Summary: This is a Terrible Book. Review: Emeril Lagasse is a great chef, and his restaurants are wonderful places to eat. And his first book was fantastic.But really, Emeril, we don't need 147(more or less) photos of you in a cookbook. We don't need more Bams, and vapid yeah, baby(s). It's impossible to get beyond the egotistic swelling of Emeril's head to the food recipes in this book. Between him and Bobby Flay, they should open a photo shop.
Rating:  Summary: Too Much Seafood Review: I bought this book for my husband as a gift because he is an Emeril fan. Unfortunately, we have not been compelled to try any recipes because none truly appealed to us. I also thought that the recipes would be a little less complicated than they were. Emeril really makes things look simpler on TV.
Rating:  Summary: Worst Health & Nutrition book Review: I found the following on PCRM.org website: "Celebrated Food Network star Emeril Lagasse offers among the worst of the celebrity books. Although he offers a few low-fat salads and vegetable dishes, most of the recipes are loaded with fat and cholesterol. From ham hock wontons to chicken pot pies, these dishes should be off-limits for anyone with a weight problem."
Rating:  Summary: Emeril does it again Review: I just received "Emeril, Prime Time". I've looked through the table of contents and checked out several recipes. From what I have noticed, Emeril has done a wonderful job. The format is amazing, and the type of recipes are just what I expected. We've all watched these shows on prime time, and I'm thrilled to have them all in one place. I am sure that the recipes will surpass Emeril's usual..only the best.
Rating:  Summary: Prime Time Emeril Review: I love Emeril and find his recipes easy to follow, even the ones that SOUND difficult. However, this cookbook was severely lacking in pictures. I'm not sure they had any pictures of FOOD--only Emeril, et al. I love a cookbook that entices you with pictures as well as content! Sometimes the pictures MAKE you want to make it!
Rating:  Summary: THIS IS A GREAT COOKBOOK!!!!!!!! Review: I love this book... Emeril has put a lot of GREAT recipes in this book... I showed it to a chef friend of mine and he borrowed it right away to write down some of the recipes... He said he has been trying to do some of Emeril dishes and guessing on the ingredients and NOW he can try some with the great detail put into making sure all ingredients are covered... ( I BETTER GET MY BOOK BACK SOON) HAHAHAHAHAHA And a nice cooked dish from my friend. HAHAHAHAHAHA
