You won’t believe how I make the roux for this delicious Gumbo recipe! It’s so easy and works perfectly using pot in pot cooking technique. Also find out how to …
I noticed when you dumped the sausage into the pot, you didn't eat one first. Did you actually not eat one of the sausage pieces or did you edit it out? But….Besides the unrealistic expectation of not pre-eating a piece of sausage, the recipe looks amazing….especially the addition of root beer. Definitely going to give this a try soon.
Add some Kitchen Bouquet for darker color and added flavor. Looks AWESOME!
Yummy! Do you have a recipe for shrimp creole?
to make the gumbo like real gumbo just cook your roux in the microwave in glass measuring cup. I find 12 minutes makes the perfect brown color for gumbo. You must stir every 1-to 2 minutes but so much easier than typical way of making roux.
I tried this with the 15 min rue and I’m not a fan… it ruined it in my opinion
If you put a cup of flour on a sheet pan in a thin layer and bake at 400 for 30-40 min you can make that roux darker and more flavorful. Just a little cheat I use.
So happy for CC.
Btw
Gumbo is NOT a stew.
Just seeing some of the other comments. Please don’t take my suggestions as criticism b/c I don’t mean them that way.
Another tip: I your current recipe if you add couple tbl. of kitchen bouquet it would greatly help change the red color.
Oops!
Ooos!
My bad, you did the shrimp just right!
I would highly suggest adding shrimp in when you add rice & go back under pressure.
Also, gumbo has a bay leaf in there.
I’ve never seen a red gumbo, though I’m sure your’s tastes great. Tip: andouille is pronounced ah (like a yawn sound)ndouiile.
Andouille
Keep up the great videos!!!
Thank you!
Never heard of roux in jambalaya???

Hi Louise! We love the recipe! However, we keep getting the 'add water' alarm once get to the rice portion. The roux doesn't stay on top like yours does, and some chicken and sausage gets darken (not burnt thankfully). We have the larger 8 qt Ninja, with the turn dial knob. Any suggestions?
I made the gumbo today for lunch and it was terrfic! With just the two of us we have plenty of leftovers. Thank you so much for providing us with quality recipe videos. That, plus the written recipes you provide, make it so easy to follow.
If you have file' how much would you use instead of rootbeer?
Thank you for the great video and recipe. I was wondering if you have air fry breaded fish in ninja foodi?
Gumbo is one of my husbands favorite. I am not able to tolerate the andouille it is a little to spicy for my stomach. What can I use instead of the andouille? I love your recipes and have learned so much about cooking in general. You need your own cooking show!
Fire the videographer. LOL HI was flashing and flashing.
Which size Foodi are you using? When I put the rack in mine, it is abouve the fill line – I have the 6 qt. I noticed your rack was past the top. Or does the fill line mane liquids and not count for the rack.
Ok, I want this recipe, but can't click on anything to get it.
Thanks for the great gumbo recipe! Looks so yummy!❤️❤️
Holy crap you talk way to damn much to make this simple!
Louise you are so pretty…
New to your channel and it’s awesome u have some awesome recipes! I did however have a short cut for your roux. Take a cup of flower and bake it for 40-55 mins at 425 and then take it out and add you oil or butter perfect dark roux every time with no stirring. Start checking the flower at 40 mins to make sure it doesn’t burn. This is courtesy of shot gun red cooking show RIP shotgun!
I live in Louisiana where everyone has a different recipe for gumbo. I love to cook and have always believed in letting people do what they want in the kitchen. That being said (and you knew it was coming) what I do is brown my sausage and remove. This leaves the sausage oil to brown the chicken. The chicken leaves graton (brown bits) on the bottom of the pot. Remove the chicken and deglaze with the trinity. This ads a lot of flavor. And by the way you can buy a nice dark roux in a jar at most supermarkets. Anyway just my two cents. Great channel. Oh and Creoles use tomatoes and Cajuns don't. I am a subscriber so don't think I'm being hard on you. Have a great day.
I am Cajun born & bred from Southeast Louisiana. Please, do not call this Cajun Gumbo, because there ain't nothing Cajun about it. Tomatoes do not go in gumbo.
Could you add your version o Kentucky Fried Chicken, thanks .
