I used to make gumbo many times and could not find the ingredients list I previously used. Bummer. I pulled a recipe and was anxious to use it, but I just couldn't. I stopped short of reading past the roux process. There was no way I was going to stand and stir a roux for a minimum of 30 minutes- no way! So, as I do best, I compiled a batch of ingredients to come up with my recent gumbo creation. Honestly, I believe it was my best yet. I must warn you, when I make gumbo it is in a huge pot. Where I have amounts listed (as I remembered), you will end up with a huge pot of gumbo. If you have questions, let me know. Enjoy!
