“This recipe literally just saved my first ever pot of gumbo. I had been using a different but close recipe, and it didn't mention adding water in with the vegetables/sausage and roux. I'm staring at it for an hour wondering if everything just cooks down. Final” — a cook
“This has good flavor, but I added thyme and oregano ...a couple teaspoons each....to give the flavor more depth. It was a great way to use okra from the garden!” — a cook
