Listen to this man about how he added his stock a little at a time. For those who havn’t made gumbo before, its one of the best tips. Even if you add way less flour.

[@Sakscratch]

I'm a Louisiana native, and have made many a roux, and burned my fair share in the process. However, as much as I hate to say this, I saw Alton Brown on TV one day years ago on an episode where he was making his first roux. He burned his, too, the first time, but then he had an idea! He started another roux in a cast iron skillet as usual, but as soon as the oil and flour were stirred together, he put the entire skillet in a 350 degree oven and let it brown right there in the oven! Every 10 minutes or so, he'd open the oven door, check out the color, give it a quick stir, and close the oven door again. After about 45 or so minutes, the roux reached the color he was looking for and he took the skillet out of the oven and he had his roux! I've copied his technique every single time since I saw that episode, and it works perfectly. You'll never burn a roux again, and while it's browning in the oven, you're free to do other stuff besides constantly stirring and stirring and well you know. Hate to have to admit that a Yankee came up with a better way to make a roux, but there it is... :) Try it, you'll see, I garontee!

You can also bake the flour by itself.

my mom use to do it in the microwave... idk how been to scared to try

[@masterlee4370]

I saw that episode and the first thing I thought was no true Gumbo Cooker from Louisiana is going to do that. A Gumbo is a process that if done right in the end will put smiles on your face and joy in your heart while eating it. Your tummy will love it too. But like the Cajun Ninja said You Deaux You!

[@Sakscratch]

@@masterlee4370 No true Scotsman, huh? Well, do it the hard way then if you need the emotional boost. Scientifically, however, the end result is the same. Do you wash your car with a toothbrush, too?

[@JennWatson-je3dz]

Your gumbo looks delicious ! Perfect weather is coming this week for a gumbo !

[@georgephillips3198]

Ninja thought were gone forever Happy to see you bake

[@tonibully4090]

This is great. I want to make Gumbo for Thanksgiving.

[@jeffp3415]

Turkey and andouille gumbo is a family tradition at our house, the Sunday after Thanksgiving. We make 2 turkeys every year (one smoked, one deep fried) and I make about 8 quarts of turkey stock out of those two turkey carcasses for the base of our gumbo, and then add the leftover turkey meat along with andouille.

[@tonibully4090]

@@jeffp3415 I'll be there, lol. That sounds so good.

[@youroutdoors5453]

Man that looked amazing, I can't wait to try my hand at seafood Gumbo. I have caught the shrimp, I can get the crab and I was thinking about adding something else like scallops or clams, who knows maybe both. I truly enjoy watching your videos, you have inspired me in an awesome way to cook Cajun food. God bless and see you on the next one.

[@dennisjones6943]

That looks perfect! I’m glad you did straight seafood. I feel smoked sausage in a seafood gumbo overpowers the pot. Great video, I’ll have to try your method

[@EmpressNatiLocs]

Looks absolutely GLORIOUS 😋

[@archietyler6759]

[@MicheleLeBourgeois]

Does anyone know where he got the “Louisiana” branded gumbo bowls? I don’t live in state anymore and would love to buy some for when I make my gumbo. Thanks in advance !!!

[@chinoyhealingfoodstravels8888]

[@Valerifon1]

[@mellymal180]

How much did the crab meat cost being that it’s so expensive? I’m guessing you spent around $50 just on that

[@TheSgtShade]

Looks great

[@michaelpardue2400]

[@michellemichellemichelle]

[@barryhebert5839]

[@victorlui5955]

Pi-yah!!!

[@Fleecybigfoot]

Put it in the fridge, it'll be better tomorrow!

[@LizzieBisMe]

Love a good gumbo, but the roux takes soooo long and really heats up the house. When I make a dark roux, I quadruple the amount and store it in the fridge.

[@bayouadrink5150]

New video ! 🕺💃

[@krazzykustoms1]

Where to buy those bowls?!?

[@whodatgal1996]

❤ Yummy

[@smokinjoeprestwood5889]

So, if 1lb is more than enough, why do you cook 1 lb.???

[@TheCajunNinja]

Because I’m from Louisiana. We always cook more than enough. 😏🤌🏻

[@malcolmnewman1119]
