SEAFOOD GUMBO
Gumbo is one dish that makes Louisiana cuisine so famous. We live across the state line in Texas and can't seem to get enough of this traditional gumbo recipe that features okra, shrimp, spicy seasonings and what is called the holy trinity-onions, green peppers and celery. This recipe calls for seafood, but you could also use chicken, duck or sausage. -Ruth Aubey, San Antonio, Texas

SEAFOOD GUMBO
For many African Americans, seafood gumbo is an essential part of New Year's celebrations. This version, adapted from the chef JJ Johnson, uses celebratory seafood, such as scallops, crab, lobster and shrimp, and includes okra rounds in a nod to his family's southern roots. Mr. Johnson also pulled inspiration from Gullah Geechee cuisine, Native American and West African flavors and Louisiana's culinary traditions for the ultimate melting pot of gumbo. Be sure to make the gumbo spice mix, which adds heat and depth to this luxurious and comforting stew.

Steps:
- Make the spice mix: Place all ingredients in a bowl and stir until combined. Set aside 2 tablespoons to add to the gumbo and reserve the rest for another use in an airtight container.
- Make the gumbo: In a heavy 4- to 5-quart pot, heat the butter and oil over medium heat. Once the butter begins to bubble slightly, add the flour and stir with a wooden spoon or heatproof spatula to form a smooth paste.
- Cook the mixture, stirring continuously, for 10 to 13 minutes to make a chocolate-colored roux. Make sure to scrape the bottom and sides of the pot to avoid burning. It is important to keep a very close eye on the roux during this step. The roux can go from a nutty color and aroma to burnt beyond repair in a matter of minutes. Lower the heat as needed.
- Immediately add the onion, garlic, celery, bell pepper and tomatoes and stir well. The vegetables will stop the roux from overcooking and burning. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables start to stick to the pan, 5 to 10 minutes. Add the dried shrimp, if using, tomato paste and 2 tablespoons spice mix and cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes.
- While whisking, slowly add the stock and whisk until the stock is completely blended with the roux and vegetable mixture. Add the okra, lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce and let simmer for 50 minutes over very low heat, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon. Add the lobster, crab, scallops and shrimp and simmer just until cooked through, about 10 minutes more.
- Season the gumbo to taste with salt and pepper and serve over rice.

Steps:
- Simmer shrimp shells and water, uncovered, in an 8-quart pot until liquid is reduced to about 12 cups, 15 to 20 minutes, then pour through a sieve set over a large bowl and discard shells.
- Stir together oil and flour in a 10-inch heavy skillet (preferably cast-iron) with a flat metal or wooden spatula, then cook over moderately low heat (do not use a high-BTU burner), scraping back and forth constantly (not stirring) until roux is the color of milk chocolate, 30 to 45 minutes. (As roux cooks, it may be necessary to lower the heat to prevent scorching.) Add onions, celery, and bell pepper and cook, scraping back and forth occasionally, until onion is softened, about 8 minutes.
- Scrape roux mixture into cleaned 8-quart pot, then add shrimp stock and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat, then add tasso, salt, and cayenne and simmer, uncovered, 30 minutes. Add okra and simmer until tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in shrimp and simmer until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in scallion greens and salt to taste.

Steps:
- Cut all chicken pieces in half except for the legs. Season to taste with garlic powder, seasoning salt and dust with 1/2 cup of flour.
- reserving remaining flour for making the roux. Heat butter and 1/4 cup lard in a large stock pot or dutch oven.
- Add chicken to the pot a few pieces at a time and cook until browned , about 10 minute each side.
- Remove from pan and set aside.
- Before starting the roux put your chicken stock into a pan and start to heat it up, you will want it warm to hot before putting it in the recipe.
- (The Roux).
- Add remaining lard to pan (see notes) and heat to smoking (about 5 minute or so), stirring with wire whisk constantly.
- to scrape up brown bits in the bottom of the pan. Carefully whisk in remaining flour and continue to cook and stir.
- over medium heat until mixture becomes brick red color in nature, about 20 minutes. Be careful to not let the mixture cook too fast or.
- let spatter on skin (southern napalm) as it is extremely hot and scorches easily.
- (The Hard Part is almost Over).
- Reduce heat to low, stir in onion, celery and green pepper, garlic, sausage, peppers, oregano, thyme, parsley and salt.
- Cook for 5 minutes or so until the veggies are soft but not brown.
- Gradually whisk in hot stock a few cups at a time until all the stock is in the pot.
- Return the chicken to the pan and bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
- Reduce the mixture to medium or medium high and simmer covered for about 40 to 45 minutes.
- Add shrimp and simmer 5 minutes longer.
- Serve over hot cooked rice and if desired minced parsley and file powder.
- Put out a bottle of hot sauce for those who like a little more heat.
- Notes.
- 1) You can substitute any cooking oil for the lard in browning the chicken and in making the roux.
- Just remember in making the roux it is equal parts of flour to oil or lard.
- 2) You need to be patient in making the roux, if you burn it at all, just throw it away and begin again. I find if the roux is getting too hot remove the pan from the heat for a short period of time but always remember to keep stirring, that point can't be stressed enough.
- Creole cooks have been known to cook their roux for and hour or more depending on the consistency and the color of the roux that they wanted. For extra rich color and flavor cook and stir the roux
- over medium low heat for 45 minutes to an hour but keep stirring.
- 3) This is a big pot, lots of room , if you like more shrimp add more
- I have added split crab claws to the gumbo at the same time the shrimp is added.
- Enjoy and.
