Tips
- Cook gumbo with broth, if you cook it only with water alone this will make gumbo bland and less flavorful.
- Adding okra to it will increase the viscosity of the soup. However, add it at the right time. If you put it too early, okra will not serve as a thickener.
- Make sure all the ingredients you use are fresh ingredients, this will add an authentic flavor.
- Do not leave the process of stirring flour, if you do not do well it will make the flour burnt.
- Make sure you cut vegetables of the same thickness, this will help the gumbo ripen evenly.
