EMERIL LAGASSE'S DELMONICO POTATOES

This recipe was posted in answer to a message board request. It was taken from the Emeril Lagasse recipe web site (http://www.emerils.com/recipe/167/delmonico-potatoes). Feb 25, 2011 - An Update - Re: Micks' posting: First: Thank you for posting the recipe for "Emeril's Essence/Emeril's Creole Seasoning" :-) Second: No one is claiming this is the recipe for the potatoes served at the "Original (since 1837) Delmonico's Restaurant" in New York City. A restaurant that I have personally had the pleasure of eating in many times (I was born/raised in NYC). I have had the "Classic Delmonico Potatoes" there on many occasions. The potatoes served at the "Original Delmonico's Steakhouse" in NYC are different from the ones that are served at Emeril's restaurant ("Emeril's Delmonico Steakhouse" in New Orleans, La.) Again, I have personally eaten the "Delmonico Potatoes" at Emeril's restaurant when I was in New Orleans. The recipe that is posted is the same as the recipe he uses in HIS restaurant. I hope this clarifies any confusion. :-)

SHRIMP CLEMENCEAU



Shrimp Clemenceau image

George Benjamin Eugene Clemenceau became the premier of France in 1906 and a chicken dish was created in New Orleans to honor him, I believe at Galatoire's, the revered restaurant that opened in 1905. I've taken a little liberty and substituted shrimp for the chicken.

3 cups vegetable oil
2 large Idaho potatoes, peeled and cut into small dice (about 3 cups)

1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pound medium-size shrimp, peeled and deveined

  • To serve, divide the mixture into 4 equal portions on serving plates and drizzle with the hollandaise.
  • In a stainless steel bowl set over a pot of simmering water (be careful not to let the bottom of the bowl touch the water), whisk the egg yolks with the lemon juice, hot sauce, and water until pale yellow in color. Season with salt and pepper. Remove the bowl from the pot and, whisking vigorously, add the melted butter 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking until all the butter is incorporated. Keep warm until needed.

Categories     side-dish

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 pounds potatoes, peeled and diced
1 stick butter, cubed
1/2 to 3/4 cup heavy cream
Salt and white pepper

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the potatoes until fork tender, about 12 to 15 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and drain. Place the potatoes back in the pot and return to the heat. Stir the potatoes, constantly, for 2 to 3 minutes to dehydrate the potatoes. Remove the potatoes from the heat. Add the butter. Using a hand-held masher, mash the butter into the potatoes. Add enough cream until desired smoothness is achieved. The potatoes should still be sort of lumpy. Season the potatoes with salt and pepper.

MA'S DELMONICO POTATOES



Ma's Delmonico Potatoes image

This is my Mother's adaptation of the famous restaurant's specialty. She's been making it for 40 years, and has passed the torch to me. It is what I am always asked to bring for Christmas and Easter dinner. So savory and even better heated up the next day. I have also added chunks of ham and frozen peas for a one-dish meal.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 quarts, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 lbs potatoes, boiled, peeled and cubed
6 tablespoons butter
6 tablespoons flour
3 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
6 cups milk
10 ounces Cracker Barrel sharp cheddar cheese (red package)

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in a greased 4 quart casserole.
  • Shred cheese.
  • Melt butter in saucepan.
  • Mix flour, salt, dry mustard, cayenne, pepper and paprika; add to melted butter.
  • Cook, stirring with whisk constantly, until bubbly.
  • Add milk and continue stirring until mixture starts to become thick.
  • Begin adding shredded cheese by the handful, stirring all the while.
  • Continue cooking and stirring until mixture has boiled about 5 minutes (to cook flour, to prevent a "floury" taste).
  • Pour cheese sauce over potatoes.
  • Bake at 450 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes to 1 hour, until bubbly and beginning to brown on top.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold potatoes are a good choice for this recipe because they hold their shape well and have a creamy texture. You can also use russet potatoes, but they may fall apart more easily.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If the potatoes are not cut evenly, some pieces may be overcooked while others are still undercooked.
  • Parboil the potatoes: This will help them cook through more quickly and evenly. To parboil the potatoes, place them in a pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Once the water boils, cook the potatoes for 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. Drain the potatoes well before proceeding with the recipe.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pan: This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the potatoes from burning.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the potatoes will not cook evenly. Cook the potatoes in batches if necessary.
  • Season the potatoes well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to season the potatoes. You can also add other seasonings, such as paprika, chili powder, or cumin.
  • Cook the potatoes until they are crispy: The potatoes should be cooked until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender and fluffy on the inside. This will take about 15-20 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately: Delmonico potatoes are best served hot and crispy. You can garnish them with fresh parsley or chives.

Conclusion:

Emeril Lagasse's Delmonico potatoes are an easy and delicious side dish that can be served with a variety of main courses. The potatoes are roasted with butter, garlic, and herbs until they are golden brown and crispy. This recipe is sure to please everyone at your table.
