About Essence of Emeril

Essence of Emeril is a Food Network show hosted by chef Emeril Lagasse. In each episode, Emeril shares with his viewers some of his 'kicked-up' recipes, similar to those on Emeril Live, but with a far calmer demeanor and quieter tone, and usually without the trademark apron that has become his Emeril Live uniform starting with the 2000 season.

Essence of Emeril is a reality series made for Food Network. Its 9 seasons and 653 episodes were broadcast from November 1994 to March 2007. That is around 73 episodes a season.

It streams on Philo in the United States.
