Had a Cajun friend from Lake Charles who wanted potato salad in his gumbo. I tried it and really liked it. Okra in the gumbo is great, too.

I call that “prairie” gumbo, not gumbo without rice. Delicious with potato salad and crackers.

Perhaps I’m biased as I find pretty much all types of potato salad deplorable. The idea of adding it to gumbo just sounds like sacrilege.

I realize people eat it with gumbo but that’s weird

Chicken. Andouille. Rice.
Maybe a shrimp and crab gumbo on Good Friday.
Anything else should be outlawed.

Gumbo is better without okra than with. I can tolerate it and sometimes welcome a change of pace, but I never cook it with.
I never understood the fascination of potato salad with gumbo. In the gumbo sounds gross. I'd much Rather a loaf of French bread with my gumbo. Thats right frickers, a whole loaf.

tomatoes
We had sometimes put a few tomatoes cooked down in the gumbo and it was good. Never understood why some hated the tomato word associated with gumbo...
Then last week at Middendorfs Slidell, I asked for the gumbo and they warned me it was "tomato gumbo". I tried it and it was like a tomato soup with onions and seafood. No roux base, no okra; just awful. Like a mater/onion soup. So now I understand the objection to the tomatoes.
But still, a good dark roux, with the trinity; and almost anything taste good in there...

Technically, it can not be gumbo without okra! I like chicken and okra gumbo and love potato salad, on the side!

I tell ya. I didn’t try potato salad with gumbo until recently and I was pleasantly surprised. Really goes well with it.
For those of you saying you don’t like okra in gumbo, well, you’re not eating a gumbo at that point.

I love shrimp and okra in my gumbo, but potato salad on the side for me, not in the gumbo...
