Eggs of course were a way to stretch it. Same with all of my Italian friends growing up. We all had big families and they put eggs in red gravy because they were cheaper than a meatball.
eggs are a cheaper alternative to meat, this was very popular in the 1930's and 40s. and has stayed with a lot of Italian families.
I come form a giant Italian family they always have boiled eggs in the pasta and gumbo.

I love potato salad with gumbo, but I keep it on the side and dip each bite. I don't want it in the gumbo bowl.
You got it right

Did you make an account just to bump a 3 year old thread? Not judging, just asking.

Where did potato salad/egg in gumbo originate?
It was here in the beloved F and D Board that the idea of putting potato salad in gumbo began.

When people eat potato salad in gumbo is it in addition to rice or do you swap the rice for potato salad? I always assumed it was both
Most folks I see eating potato salad in their gumbo is also in addition to the rice.
I'll eat potato salad in my gumbo once in a while and I too like it as an addition to the rice. I'll put my rice in the bowl, add my gumbo and then a scoop of potato salad.
But I'm not fussed if there's no potato salad.

Upset about gravy.. not coming out right
To make a gravy with just the drippings like we’re talking about, takes years to master.. many tears are shed in Acadiana over a f-ed up burnt gravy.. beheadings have occurred
