Equipped with New Orleans traditions and over 100 recipes, Emeril's Creole Christmas provides complete menus, down to the shopping lists and suggested wines, for a Christmas Eve dinner, Christmas Day brunch, and New Year's Eve and Day suppers. Corn Cakes with Caviar, Sugarcane Baked Ham with Spiced Apples and Pears, Beef Tenderloin with Fresh Horseradish and Black Pepper Crust, Jiffy Pop Firecracker Shrimp (yes, you do make it with popcorn), and Caramelized Andouille Spoon Bread are just a few of the recipes that will make your celebrations memorable. And the desserts - delight your guests with Chocolate Chocolate Pudding Cake with Chocolate Ganache, Creole Christmas Trifle, Creole Christmas Fruitcake with Whiskey Sauce, Banana Cream Pie with Caramel Drizzle and Chocolate Sauces, or Chocolate Bread Pudding with Spiced Cream. Emeril also makes a lagniappe - a gift - of his very favorite dishes, such as Quail and Smoked Sausage Christmas Gumbo, Lobster Cheesecake with Christmas Caviar Sauce, and Crawfish Quiche. Finally, there are the stocking stuffers - gifts from the Creole kitchen - that include Emeril's Homemade Worcestershire Sauce, Butter Cream Mints, and Orange Pralines.
