no offense but I like mine with brown roux yours has no roux.



Not saying that's my favorite gumbo, but he clearly states he used a roux and you can see him cooking the trinity down in his roux.

So...

I guess I meant more roux.

I agree with the others tho, the stock, cooking down the chicken is important as well.

Did I miss the gumbo fight or is it still brewing?

Whatever you do, you'd better put okra in it or it's just a Cajun stew, not a gumbo.



Unless you use filet...then it's a filet gumbo.

No okra or filet...then it's a stew.

I'm betting you don't know that a filet gumbo has no roux. It has an onion base. The filet is a thickener.

Just because you add filet to a gumbo doesn't make it a filet gumbo.
