I was thinking of making some this weekend myself! I’ve had the privilege of having my mothers’ recipe for years now but wanted to try something new…. How about that secret recipe of yours? Very Happy

Is it a soup or gumbo?

its my wifes handed down to her, its a gumbo. I've had lots of different gumbos and this is the most awesome and I will put it up against anyones own recipe. The recipe would do you no justice you would have to stand right beside her while its made. Bluecrab, shrimp,redfish,trout, scallops,okra, and some other stuff, and a rogue which is a thick gravy. Very Happy

How does Deb make her roux?

A roux is most easily (and safely - little to no burning) made in the oven. Do a search on Alton Brown (food network) making a roux.

A roux can go from brick red to black in seconds. Brown is good - black is not.

I use equal parts of flour and lard (veggie oil if I am feeling healthy). Use to use a cast iron skillet as well. However, years back after burning a batch (I am a very impatient person off the water), I grabbed a microwave safe bowl and made the first of many batches of dark, mahogany color roux. Just whisk the mixture every 1-1/2 to 2 minutes with a metal whisk. As you can imagine, this stuff is very very hot. You will laugh when you realize that you have made true roux in under 15 minutes!
