Homemade Gumbo should be a cooks right of passage. And fine, maybe this gumbo isn't exactly perfect, but it's flavor profile is pretty dang perfect when you get that first spoonful.

As someone from Southern Louisiana, everyone’s gumbo is different. Some people don’t even put in the time to make a roux and the gumbo still turns out delicious. Now for gumbos sake Papa Josh’s gumbo is definitely elevated but you’re crazy if you say you wouldn’t at least try this!

Proper louisianian here! This looks delicious! It’s certainly not what I would call a gumbo but more of a dark roux seafood creole (which is similar to a gumbo but is less thick and usually incorporates more vegetables including tomatoes) which can be very delicious! This is not a slap in the face of Cajun cooking but more of a twist. If you’re traditional like me then you already know what this is and what it isn’t, but I would chow down on this no problem and it probably would taste better 90% of you gumbo PURISTS (which I belong to and most certainly belong to that 90% group because I can’t make it like grandma).

There's even a meatless Gumbo z'Herbs for the vegans amount us. The only rule was should the roux became the slightest bit burnt, throw it out, wash the pot, and start over as there is no trick method to ridding the finished gumbo of the burnt taste.

@BP-or2iu 3 года назад

This may or not be true. The Choctaw word for filé is “kombo” so it could have come from them. Also, the gumbo of Louisiana, and the okra dish from west Africa are nothing alike. By the time the French and Africans and Natives were finished, you have a completely different dish, so okra is certainly not a necessity. If you took a bowl of gumbo to someone from Ghana I don’t think they would connect it to any of those dishes, other than the fact that okra was in it. The main characteristic of gumbo is the roux, not the okra, etymology notwithstanding.

@UmmonTheLight 3 года назад

The Problem with mixing the seafood, beef and sausage is that you can overpower the seafood. Now if you've got a whole snow crab, four lobster tails plus the pound of shrimp like Joshua here you'll probably have enough flavour from all the shells. But if you wanna make a less extravagant gumbo I'd stick to either seafood or meat, compare the two and then you can try and mix them without loosing the seafood.

Agreed. Shell everything before hand, use the shells for the stock. The only, ONLY time I want shells in the final dish is when the shell is an integral part of the dish -- ex: eating crab legs on their own, eating crabs at a crab boil, leaving the crab shell or lobster tail as a bowl, etc.

@nontaliemorrow 3 года назад

It's probably the reference to "perfect" gumbo in the title. There are plenty of reasons in the comments already about how the word gumbo translates to okra in West African countries or how the ingredients are too rich for the poorer communities who popularized the dish in this country. Is your version, perfect...I would say no. But like the majority of your recipes, it can definitely be seen as elevated or enhanced. Regardless, you do great work and it's clear you all put a lot of time and care into each and every aspect of content creation. Kudos to you and the team.

@JaewonJung 2 года назад

@ultimateninjaboi 2 года назад

Honestly, his whole channel strikes me as him using "perfect," to play the algorithm game (as "perfect," draws the eye more than the more accurate "enhanced/pumped-up") but mainly using it jokingly. Channel doesnt strike me as him actually thinking hes made the definitive pinnacle of a dish, as much as making an, as you said, enhanced version of the standard that meets his own personal desires/tastes the best, and then using "perfect," for the sake of getting people to watch, and almost mocking the people who legitimately try and make such claims.

You can get it as dark as you like without much risk of burning at all; it just takes time - about three hours.

Mixing land and sea isn’t really a big deal to anyone who is actually from Louisiana. Then, For the love of god NO ONE. Has ever put Worcestershire sauce in a gumbo ever in life. Like ever. Idk why this is perpetuated but it’s not. I’ve asked 100’s of people and not one has said yes. Ima request a simple, chicken and sausage gumbo from you. Lastly filé is added after you plate up. Much love from Louisiana.

@tsrindahl 3 года назад

This is very, very too much extra! I’m sure it absolutely delicious but most people are going to want a more humble gumbo. The thing I love about making gumbo it that it’s relatively inexpensive but truly delicious. I use homemade chicken stock (I have never seen beef used), get rid of the lobster use the crab only if affordable but I usually just use chicken, keep the shrimp and andouille, use less file’ powder and do everything else the same. The Cajun spice mixture is almost exactly what I use in mine. I also use the chocolate Roux and Worcestershire sauce. Okra’s sliminess can be cured by boiling separately rinsing it and then frying in oil draining on paper towels and then people can add it if they want. Making it this way makes way less slimy and adding it at the last moment also keep it from messing with the gumbo’s texture. Love the show but I also love gumbo staying humble too much not to comment!
