Steps:

Cover with lid, bring to the boil and cook for 20 minutes. Clean the shrimp and saute in a separate pan to get rid of any excess moisture. When they have turned pink add the shrimp and crab to the gumbo. Cook for 10 minutes. Lastly, add lemon slices and chopped green onions
- Combine the ingredients in a separate pan. Brown on a medium high heat until it turns light brown.
- Combine ingredients in a large heavy bottomed saucepan. Bring to the boil and simmer for 1 hour.

LOUISIANA GUMBO
The best gumbo I have ever tasted. Mom always made it and still does. I have made some mild changes from the original as she never makes it the same way twice.

Steps:
- In a large (I mean large) stockpot boil chicken (completely covered by 2 inches of water), chopped okra, celery, sage, bouillon, oregano, black pepper until chicken is done. Remove chicken and set aside to cool, leave the stock in the pot. When cool debone the chicken and shred the meat. Set aside for now.
- Crumble sausage and fry in a skillet. Remove sausage and set aside. Reserve 1/2 cup of the drippings. Add flour and make a very dark roux (dark brown). Add the sausage and roux to the chicken broth and let simmer 10 minutes.
- Chop bell peppers and cayennes at this time. Add to pot and let simmer 10 minutes.
- Add shrimp, clam juice, crawfish tails to the pot and let simmer 15 minutes.
- Add the chicken and gumbo file to the pot and bring to a boil.
- I like to let this gumbo rest for a few hours and then reheat it before serving. Serve over rice with crackers and Louisiana hot sauce.
- This gumbo only gets better the next day. It freezes well to make a quick simple meal anytime.

REAL CAJUN GUMBO (FROM A LOUISIANAIAN)
All the gumbos you find that have tomatoes or okra are not cajun. That is creole. These are two completely different cultures. Cajun is a simple, cheap, tasty, country, low swamp land culture. Creole, is a higher class, city folk, type of culture that requires more expensive and extensive ingredients. Do not use more andouille than the recipe calls for, or I promise you will regret it! Please do not season with hot sauce on your plate, it is rude. For cheap, tasty andouille, order from the original makers of cajun andouille at www.cajunsausage.com.

Steps:

- Blend in chicken and andouille. Sauté approximately 15 minutes.
- Add chicken stock, one ladle at a time, stirring constantly until all is incorporated.

LOUISIANA CHICKEN GUMBO
I'm a coward when it comes to okra. Yes, I know it is used for its thickening qualities, but I just can't bring myself to use this vegetable.

AMERICAN KITCHEN CLASSIC LOUISIANA GUMBO
Gumbo is perhaps the signature dish, a cross cultural dish, of both cuisines, Cajun and Creole. Creole cooking is city cooking: refined, delicate and luxurious, developed and originally prepared by servants while Cajun cooking is French cooking techniques on a host of new ingredients unknown from the Cajuns stays in Nova Scotia and France, exotic forms of meat, game, fish, produce, and grains.

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!

- Heat a heavy cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add flour and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the flour turns a deep golden color, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer the flour to a plate and let cool. (There will be a strong aroma similar to burnt toast. Be careful not to let the flour burn; reduce the heat if flour seems to be browning too quickly.) Alternately, toast the flour in a pie plate in a 400 degrees F oven for 20 minutes.
- Heat oil in a heavy stockpot over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, celery and garlic; sauté until the onions are lightly browned, about 7 minutes. Stir in the toasted flour. Gradually stir in broth and bring to a simmer, stirring. Add tomatoes, okra, pepper, thyme, oregano, cayenne and bay leaf. Cover and cook for 15 minutes. Stir in rice and cook, covered, for 15 minutes longer.
- Add shrimp, chicken and sausage; simmer until the shrimp is opaque inside, the chicken is no longer pink and the rice is tender, about 5 minutes longer. Discard the bay leaf and season with salt. Ladle into bowls and serve with hot sauce.
