| What is GUMBO ? |
Gumbo is actually a blend of cajun and creole cooking styles.You can use just about any kind of meat that you have at home to make a great gumbo (chicken,duck,quail,squirrel,rabbit or even better yet seafood).Simply fill a pot half full of water add onions,garlic,celery,okra,salt,pepper,meat or seafood and the all important roux;let it cook until meat is tender.For seafood gumbo cook everything except the seafood for about 1 hour on med.heat then add seafood and cook for another 15-20 minutes and its done.It's that easy.Serve over steamed rice in a soup dish. | ||||||||||||||||
