How Do You Make Authentic South Louisiana Gumbo Roux (Pronounced “Roo”)?
If you love gumbo, you are certainly not alone! There are as many different types of gumbo flavor as there are cooks that make it – no two are alike. Being from South Louisiana (south of New Orleans), I’ll teach you how to make the base for gumbo – called a Roux. It’s ALL about the roux! Step 1 jQuery(document).ready(function(){ jQuery(‘#jsArticleStep1 span.image a:first’).attr(‘href’,’http://i.ehow.com/images/GlobalPhoto/Articles/4825764/cook_Full.jpg’); }); First, assemble all of your ingredients so they are close to you – within reach. Once you begin, you cannot leave it alone! It must be tended to constantly until it is finished. While these steps don’t go into making the gumbo soup-part, we are going to make the all-important base. Make sure you have the time to stick with this until the roux is finished. Step 2 jQuery(document).ready(function(){ jQuery(‘#jsArticleStep2 span.image a:first’).attr(‘href’,’http://i.ehow.com/images/GlobalPhoto/Articles/4825764/skillet_Full.jpg’); });
