Steps:
- Warm 1 cup oil over medium heat in a large Dutch oven until hot. Add the flour to the pot all at once, whisking until the consistency is uniform. Cook the roux, whisking occasionally, until it is the color of a tarnished penny, about 20 minutes. Do not let it darken any further. Carefully add the celery, bell peppers, onion, chopped scallions and garlic to the pot, working away from you as the hot roux may spatter. Stir with a wooden spoon until the onions begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
- Add enough stock to just cover the vegetables, about 1 quart, and stir to combine. The roux may separate. Add the tomatoes with their juices, andouille and smoked sausages, cayenne, bay leaves, 1 1/2 tablespoons salt, 1 tablespoon black pepper and the remaining stock, about 1 more quart. Partially cover and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a medium skillet over high heat. Add the okra and cook, stirring, until the gel dries out slightly, about 3 minutes. Add to the Dutch oven.
- Taste the gumbo for seasoning and adjust as desired. Add the chicken, cook until warmed through and serve, or simmer up to 2 hours more to concentrate the flavors, adding the chicken 20 minutes before serving.
- Sprinkle with the reserved sliced scallions and serve over rice. Serve with hot sauce and file powder if using.

IT'S SO EASY IT'S CHEATING GUMBO
This is the easiest best tasting gumbo that you would swear came from a real roux. It is a fast delicious staple in my house weekly and can be multiplied easily for larger parties or used with seafood. Just don't tell anyone your secret ... shhh.

GULLAH GUMBO
One-pan meals are a staple of Gullah cuisine. My gumbo is not to be missed. This dish takes time, but let me tell you-you can taste the love in every bite. I like to serve my Crab Rice over the top of the gumbo for an impressive presentation.

Steps:
- Whisk together the oil and flour in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until the roux is the color of peanut butter, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Add the celery, onion, bell pepper and tomatoes and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the gumbo file, House Seasoning, mace, garlic and bay leaves. Cook until fragrant, 1 more minute. Slowly pour in the chicken stock, seafood stock and 1 cup water, whisking until combined. Add the turkey wing.
- Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally and adding water as needed, for 1 hour.
- Stir in the lima beans. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the gumbo is thickened, about 2 hours. Add the shrimp during the last 10 minutes of cooking. Remove the bay leaf and discard. Remove the turkey wing. Chop the meat and return it to the gumbo. Remove from the heat and sprinkle with the parsley and green onions. Serve with hot sauce.
- Stir together the garlic and onion powders, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
QUICK 'N EASY GUMBO
Here's an easy recipe for nice gumbo that you can play with. I rarely follow recipes as I think cooking should be an adventure and I enjoy the surprise of each preparation's variations. But I like the shopping list aspect of this site, so I thought I'd plug this one in for myself. I suggest you take this list to the market and then see what's fresh and inspiring to you, like free range chicken or fresh shrimp or crab or shells and then just toss in liberal amounts. What's the worse that could happen? :)

Steps:
- Pour a glass of nice red wine and have a drink.
- Put some Italian opera on the stereo and turn volume up.
- Start a big pot of rice, I prefer white rice to serve this gumbo over.
- Rice is on the top shelf to the right.
- Cut meat into nice bite-sized slices, keeping fingers clear of blade.
- Heat oil over medium heat in a big pot and slowly saute meat with garlic and onions.
- Try not to eat too much of the meat while you cook or allow family members to.
- Precooked meats like the pork will speed process.
- Uncooked meats like chicken or shrimp can be quickly boiled in chicken broth and tossed in later.
- Never under cook chicken.
- Saute until lightly browned.
- Add broth to the pot and bring to a boil.
- Lower heat to medium and then add all the other ingredients one at a time starting with firmer vegetables first (they need more cooking) and soft last.
- Toss in spices last.
- Cook over medium heat until all ingredients are blended and cooked to your liking.
- Not over cooked or too soft is how I like it.
- Maybe fifteen minutes tops.
- The longer you cook the more the flavors will blend, but I prefer separate identifiable flavors so I cook less.
- Now taste your results being careful not to burn your tongue no matter how hungry you are.
- You're going to need that tongue later.
- Add ingredients according to your liking.
- I like to toss in some of the wine I'm drinking and I always add more garlic and salt and pepper to taste.
- Don't make it too spicy or your wife will not enjoy it.
- Serve over rice in big bowls.
- Put salt and pepper and Tabasco on the table for others to adjust flavors to their liking.
- You can now add more Tabasco to your own bowl and give your wife a wink.
- Turn off the TV and try talking to each other for a change.
- Finish the bottle of wine and go for a walk around the neighborhood after dinner to aid digestion.
- Enjoy!
CHEATER GUMBO
This started out as a clean-out-the-cupboard-and-fridge soup and ended as the world's easiest (not to mention healthier) gumbo. The split peas (which I never really liked before) magically create the thickness, color, and flavor you traditionally get from roux, sautéed peppers, and celery, gumbo file powder, and rice - without including any of them. This tastes even better the next day, as the peas continue to collapse and thicken the broth.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a 4-quart Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion and salt; cook, stirring, until softened but not browned, about 5 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high. Add sausage and cook, stirring, until browned, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Stir chicken broth, split peas, and bay leaves into the Dutch oven; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, until split peas are tender and beginning to collapse, 25 to 30 minutes. Stir in zucchini and simmer until tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Discard bay leaves before serving.
