All of these recipes are sized for a crowd. While it is supposed to be a potluck book, many of the recipes are best right out of the oven, which doesn't work out so well for bringing to a gathering. Also, many recipes require Emeril brand spice blends, and while I could come up with some kind of homemade alternative, there is no indication to what his blends are supposed to taste like.

This cookbook has some great recipes in it that are tasty and easy to follow. At first, I was disappointed because I hadn't properly noticed the 'potluck: comfort food' part of the title. In other words, this is a very specific set of recipes, and if you're looking for something specific, you likely won't find it. On the other hand, I've come to realize that the recipes in this book are things I'm actually interested in making and eating -- foods that actually fit into your regular, daily life, ...more
Seriously, if I read "kick[ed:]-up" one more time, I thought I was going to scream.
had some good recipes, I recommend the key lime pie!
Lots of good recipes to try out someday.
"Emeril's Potluck: Comfort Food with a Kicked-Up Attitude" offers a wide range of recipes that more than live up to the title. Comfort food should be fun, flavorful, family-friendly, and filling. I love the simple layout of the book, the insights from Emeril above each recipe, and any little hint of Emeril's mother, "Miss Hilda". There are basic dishes with a twist, and more exotic concoctions made over into down-home good eats. This is close, casual comfort food cooking for ...more
Emeril takes a bunch of comfort food recipes, fancies them up but does it in such a way that it doesn't feel intimidating.
And, as always, he presents stuff in an entertaining way.

I got this book for Joe's birthday present, because I wanted to make food that we both liked. It's great! Not th e most healthy or easiest recipes, but they're almost all delicious. My favorite is the vegetable lasagna. I also love the layered tuna salad.
this is my favorite cooking book and I love it, everything is easy turns out amazing and will have everyone asking the recipe
I would give this 100 stars
