Hate crime of the week so far.

[ProfessorWes]

Viewing this clip, I felt a disturbance in the Force. As if a million Cajuns cried out in outrage and horror, and then were silenced.

. . . Yeah, I don't know what that crap she made is, but it sure ain't gumbo. And I sure wouldn't eat any of it. :sick:

 

[eveled]

The horror.

 

[coach]

The only gumbo I’ve had was made in a pot on the stovetop and served with rice. Plus that ain’t no cajun music. I can think of a lot better ways to spice up a marriage.

What in the name of Saint Julia Childs? That just looks nasty!

 

[WanderLust]

It's at times like these that I think, "I don't condone divorce, but I can sure understand the need sometimes."
Not sure if this marriage can be saved!

 

[Dave P.]

I'll bet my barn cats would scarf that down pretty quick.
Day 17 on Naked and Afraid I'd be inclined to eat it.

 

[375hh1973]

Ok, I will be the yankee to ask-

What did I miss?

Never ate gumbo before

 

[eveled]

This is what mine looks like.

And a roux is something you make before you start cooking. You don’t make roux by dumping flour on the finished dish. Gumbo takes a dark roux.

 

[Sapo]

Gumbo starts with a base of oil and flour. The flour is "scorched" but not burnt to several levels of flavor. Light brown in color to dark, depending on your tastes. This is the roux (pronounced roo).
To this is added onion,celery,bell pepper, and whatever the local tradition holds. Chicken seafood sausage added. It is a thin "soup" served with rice (cooked separately)and potato salad, again what local tradition holds.
"mekkin" a gumbo is common occurrence in a southern home and SERIOUS business in Louisiana.

 

[mr surveyor]

That looked and sounded like a total idiot scam .... it ain't gumbo. This coming Monday has been declared Stumpwater National Gumbo Week (by me - the mayor of Stumpwater), which only comes around a couple of times a month, and I will be cooking my usual 1-1/2 to 2 gallon batch. I think this will be either batch number 22 or batch 23 for this year. I can guarantee there is absolutely NOTHING in that video that resembles gumbo except for some of the components. I eat a lot of gumbo.

This is a dark roux. Oil and flour in a frying pan and you cannot stop stirring it for about 40 minutes. It’s like lava.

The stuff in the video looks like something that came out of my dog once.
To eveled: Looking good.

 

[akbluz]

My gumbo sure looks and tastes a lot better than that lady's concoction.

 

[jimbo1096]

That’s not gumbo- period.
It’s a perfectly good waste of ingredients.
