SEAFOOD GUMBO RECIPE: HOW TO MAKE IT - TASTE OF HOME



Seafood Gumbo Recipe: How to Make It - Taste of Home image

Gumbo is one dish that makes Louisiana cuisine so famous. We live across the state line in Texas and can’t seem to get enough of this traditional gumbo recipe that features okra, shrimp, spicy seasonings and what is called the holy trinity—onions, green peppers and celery. This recipe calls for seafood, but you could also use chicken, duck or sausage. —Ruth Aubey, San Antonio, Texas
