Since I switched to the hot stock method I only have to skim the small amount from the andouille and chicken, in seafood gumbo there is no skimming at all.
Exactly. The other 3 pages stem from a few guys who claim is you use 1 cup of oil in your roux, it will rise to the top and you will need to skim that off. One suggested using a dry roux if you don't wish to skim. The rest of us who know how to make gumbo pointed out that if made properly, the roux doesn't separate and the only skimming is due to the meats added. I've never skimmed seafood gumbo either.
