If it pleases you, remember, there is no recipe.

Sausage would just drown out the flavour of any seafood you had

should I put a stockpot in?

>>13018913
that's what I thought, I wasn't sure because a lot of recipes called for sausage

are shrimp shells enough to make a delicious seafood gumbo?

>> No.13018972

yes of course dont forget to pair them with nuggets

>> No.13018982

Since you already call it a seafood gumbo, as in seafood-only, I'd say no. Don't put it in.

If you're new to a dish you generally want to make the simpler version. Not that sausage makes it more difficult, but it makes the flavour profile more complex.
Make a simple gumbo at first and see how you like it and what you like about it, then add on from there when you make the next one.

you put andouille sausage in a traditional seafood gumbo

>> No.13019143

>>13018906
it's pretty typical to do so. Adds pork fat and smokiness

>> No.13019151

>>13018906
I've never eaten a gumbo that didn't have andouille in it.

Gumbo requires sausage everytime. Real gumbo atleast.

>> No.13019302

ok I got another one for you

should I pan fry my sausages before cooking them in the gumbo? I'd imagine this gives it a nice texture

>> No.13019318

Why wouldn't you always brown your meat when making stew? It's bonus flavor, no reason not to.
