My first time making gumbo

I did not put every single thing I did because I was trying to cook this while also handling my 10m old son lol

I think the roux is the toughest part it takes a long time to get it to the right color without burning it so gotta have patience.

I put the seasoning and everything in one pot in the end and I didn’t take a picture because I honestly forgot too 😅😅😅 I already made my bowl and was like forget it😂😂#gumbolove #getcooking #homemadegumbo

... Read moreMaking gumbo can be a rewarding experience, especially for beginners. The key to a great gumbo lies in the roux, which is the foundation of flavor for this dish. To successfully achieve the right color without burning, patience is essential. It can also be helpful to prepare all your ingredients ahead of time. As you start, begin by gradually adding the sausage and shrimp into the mix, stirring continuously for a smooth blend of flavors. Using quality ingredients elevates your gumbo; consider using fresh seafood and well-seasoned sausage to really enhance the taste. The balance of spices is crucial, as they bring warmth and depth to the dish. Don’t forget to include classics like bay leaves and thyme, adding them during the simmering process. While it’s easy to get caught up in cooking, remember to take some pictures of your progress to share with friends and family. Finally, serve your gumbo hot, with a side of rice to soak up all those wonderful flavors. This dish is perfect for gatherings yet simple enough for a weeknight dinner, making it a go-to favorite.
