If you make a hen gumbo, you won't need stock. If making it with a fryer, chicken breast, or pre cooked chicken, use stock. Of course if you are making a seafood gumbo, no in chicken stick, yes on seafood stock.

If you are making gumbo with chicken, the answer in yes.

If you are making a seafood gumbo, the answer is no.

I usually add one of those knorr chicken stock tubs. They're still kinda new.


They're next to the bouillon cubes at the store but you have to look for them.


Love these things.

How are you making the gumbo now? There may be other things you can do as well.

If you are talking seafood gumbo, trying adding some fish sauce. It's pretty much liquid salt, so add a little at a time.
