PREPARATION & SERVING SUGGESTIONS:
-
Best to
thaw over night, but in a hurry, defrost a bit in the
microwave and then slowly heat over a low fire, bringing to a
simmer. Never bring to a boil; too high of fire will break the
meat apart.
-
For those of
you who want Oysters in your Seafood Gumbo, just add them
to thawed gumbo and cook an additional 10 minutes on medium heat
-
Gumbo
is usually served over a bed of rice; we suggest 2 cups of gumbo
to ½ cup cooked rice. We often enjoy it without rice, however,
more like soup, as a lower-carb entrée. Some even add it to a
bowl of potato salad.
-
Etouffee’
is more like a thick gravy than a soup, and we suggest serving 2
cups of etouffee’ to 1 cup cooked rice
-
French
Bread - Most of us
love our bowls of gumbo and etouffee’ with hot, garlic-butter
French bread. Not quite so low-carb, but hard to resist!
Suggested Wine: Don’t matter cuz
the seafood don’t care at this point : )
