So I always make my roux, then take out of pot and don't add until I'm adding liquid to the veggies and meat. I never feel that I have too much oil in my roux (it's usually "chunkier" than the one you have in your pics) but if I don't take it out I find my gumbo is too greasy. If I let it sit for 20-30 minutes, a bit a oil comes to the top and I just take a paper towel and soak it up. I'd like to cook my veggies in it and not go to the extra trouble. Any suggestions?

I see you offline, but when you come back you have to explain this peanut butter thing.

I think I may have just heard everything!

I said same thing when this dude told me.
Turns out the guy is a top notch chef, I didn't know it at time... Friend of a friend type deal.
I'm not sure flavor wise what it adds,,, but after trying it I find myself doing I every time now.
Just try it.

I'll add this. When I think of gumbo, I think of a soup. This (and several others) that I have seen are borderline stew consistency. That being said, what you have in your pot looks DELICIOUS! I would love to try a gumbo with breakfast sausage. I might have to try that. With mine, however, I will have a higher broth to meat ratio to keep it soupy.

Gumbo's are like snowflakes. Hell, I'm not sure if I've ever made two that taste exactly the same.
