You can't get the depth of flavor by boiling vegetables as you can from a rich seafood stock. If you think you can I don't know what to tell you. I would eat your gumbo and probably go back for seconds or thirds. But it could be improved upon, to say the least.

Nope I cant, I simply dont care. Where I come from in the heart of Cajunland, we never used a stock in gumbo. I have made it with store bought stock and really couldnt say one was better than the other. I dont have a pile of chicken bones or shrimp and crab shells hanging around.

Next time I cook one I will make a homemmade stock and try it to compare. My recipe is simple. I dont try to complicate something that it as simple as boiling water.
