Emeril's Banana Cream Pie
 
I heard a local radio host say that Emeril Lagasse's banana cream pie was the BEST dessert he's ever had. Does anyone out there agree or disagree with this?

I don't know. What other desserts has that radio host had?

Emeril is a loud mouth shill for his pimped-up "essence" spices. He's as big a food whore as that fat slob Paul Prudhomme. Except he's more obnoxious.

Ellen, I would have to agree. It is a "special occasion desert" containing 5 egg yolks, 5 cups of heavy cream. You should try it and decide for yourself. You can get the recipe on Emerile.com <BR>Roger, you need to medicate yourself, Emeril may not be the best chef but he sure has what it takes to make it big in a very difficult industry.

Had the banana cream pie at one of his restaurants in Vegas (Delmonico)...was pretty incredible.

Roger-I see they have given you computer access in prison again. You really need to do something with all that pent up anger, you're going to have a heart attack or a stroke!

I was literally salivating as I read your post. I seem to require a "fix" of Emeril's banana cream pie about once every other month - certainly the best I've ever had!

Just wanted to point out that the website that Herself posted is not correct. Does anyone know where I can find this recipe to make for my girlfriend?

The correct website is www.foodtv.com <BR>Type banana cream pie in the search window.

I've had his banana cream pie and it is out of this world. I hate to tell you this (not really) but one slice has nearly 1,500 (yes one thousand five hundred) calories! Enjoy
