Where are the freaks who put sausage, chicken, and peeled shrimp in gumbo? Show yourselves so we may anonymously bash you without hurting your feelings irl. Everybody lies to you, your gumbo sucks.

I do the same as your friend. My kids and I love them. Great snack

Powdered up and added to a seafood dish, it can punch up the seafood flavor and add some umami to whatever dish you put it in. Dried seafood is a very Asian type of ingredient/snack.
EDIT: Also, a Gumbo Fight Thread(tm)
on the OT is gonna be a different beast than it will be once this thread gets moved to the Food board. You'll be able to tell when.This post was edited on 5/11/19 at 3:01 pm

1. People who put seafood and chicken/sausage in the same gumbo are fricking assholes. Hardly anybody likes seafood gumbo more than traditional gumbo to begin with and nobody likes a weird shitty combination of them
I mean, I agree with you but how did you get this from the OP?

I imagined his buddy putting shrimp into a chicken/sausage gumbo. Riled me up tbh

I prefer seafood gumbo also. I usually only cook smaller batches of seafood gumbo for us versus big pots of chicken/sausage/andouille gumbo for parties or tailgating

Never seen anyone buy some but I did have some in my gumbo when I was working offshore years ago. They were good.

This is the first time I ever heard of such a thing. I was curious and searched for them on-line - they are EXPENSIVE!

Put them in shrimp ramen. Quick easy delicious

Other than myself or my mom when I was a youngun?

I thought those were for pet toads, mine loves them.

A similar dried seafood is the product that is used to make shrimp chips at home. They come looking like so many 1 1/2" square pieces of heavy cellophane, and then you fry them up.
They get big and puffy and crunchy and have a nice shrimp flavor (a friend from Taiwan always served them at dinners because they were her favorite food.)

I just ordered a bag of them.

I like shrimp and sausage gumbo but I also like the blue runner gumbo base.
So I guess I can go frick off now.

I buy them, so do plenty of other people. They’re delicious when used in a dried shrimp and potato stew, added to smothered okra and tomatoes, or to punch up a seafood gumbo. Incidentally, Blum and Bergeron, a dried shrimp operation in Houma, has been in business for more than a hundred years.
Chicken, sausage, and oyster gumbo is a divine thing. Anyone who claims that mixing meat and seafood is bad must be from the prairie, or inland. Every self respecting bayou cajun damn well believes that seafood makes everything better. And the only ppl who think that seafood smells are whiny kids raised on effing chicken fingers and the kids menu.

Have an upvote.
I use dried shrimp all the time in seafood gumbo, Lima beans and I eat them by the handful. Bunch of cry babies in here and I’m not sure how one poster surmised the op was adding to chicken.

If you’ve ever seen shrimp drying outside by the sun you would never eat dried shrimp again

I’ve seen them. And that statement could be said for a lot of things we eat.
I’ve been in an industrial slaughter house and have seen the cow process from feedlot to canning. Chickens the same. Doesn’t bother me a bit.

They make a quick seafood stock also. Just simmer them in water a bit.
Agree with the others that can snack on them. Don't knock it.
