Directions
Gumbo, This is the basic gumbo. Add or subtract at your will. This starts mild purposely not throw off any newcomers to spice. Very flavorful, though., We love this recipe! Add lots of okra and that slimyness comes out in the boil. We do a vegetarian version with all the veggies we can find in the fridge and it is out of sight!
