NEW ORLEANS GUMBO RECIPE
This New Orleans Gumbo formula is formed with spicy smoke-cured andouille sausage, crab, shrimp, oysters, okra and vegetables, all served over steamed polished rice.
The key's to own an honest dark intermixture. Follow my step by step directions on creating intermixture during this post and you’ll be golden. I’m not progressing to lie, creating a dark intermixture are often a bit time intense, however I swear it’s all worthwhile.
I build mine sooner than time and freeze it in batches therefore it’s prepared once I have to be compelled to build a formula. Whereas I like to recommend creating your own intermixture, you'll conjointly pass away. I enclosed a link below to shop for, however I actually have ne'er tried the shop bought kind therefore can’t tell you whether or not it’s any sensible. Folks appear to love it.
