REDUCED FAT CHICKEN AND SAUSAGE GUMBO
This is a variation of my dad's gumbo that includes a dry roux (made without oil). It has rich, nutty-brown flavor of traditional gumbos without most of the oil.

Steps:
- For the dry roux: In a heavy skillet over medium-high heat, heat the flour, stirring constantly with a spatula or whisk that scrapes the bottom of the skillet clean. Stir constantly to keep the flour browning evenly. When steam comes off the flour, reduce heat and keep stirring. Do not burn. Continue until it reaches a tan color. To test, remove from heat, stirring for 1 minute off-heat and place some of the mixture into a drop or two of water and force it to mix with the back of a spoon. You are looking for a mahogany color. When complete,remove from heat and continue stirring until cooking stops; then let stand a while to cool. This can be made ahead and stored in a zip-lock freezer bag in the freezer.
- Remove the skin and fat from the chicken. Cook with water to cover and cool. Debone and chop the chicken into small chunks. Reserve the liquid.
- In another large skillet, over a medium flame with a small amount of oil, heat the onions, peppers and celery; cook until the onions are clear, then add the smoked sausage and andouille. Add the broth from above and the garlic. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Mix the roux with water, whisking to be sure the roux is evenly wet and add to the gumbo. Now check the liquid, adding some broth or hot water if needed. It should have the color of the roux and be just slightly thickened. Simmer for about 30 minutes. Add salt and black pepper to taste, then add ground red (cayenne) pepper -- enough to just prick the tongue. About 5- 10 minutes before removing from heat, add the green onion tops and parsley. To serve, put a scoop of rice in your bowl and ladle on the gumbo. You should have plenty of French bread to complete your meal, and then top it off with a good tossed salad.

GOOD NEW ORLEANS CREOLE GUMBO
I am going to give you my gumbo recipe. I learned to cook from my mother and grandmother who were born and raised in New Orleans and really knew how to cook. Most of the time, you could not get them to write down their recipes because they used a 'pinch' of this and 'just enough of that' and 'two fingers of water,' and so on. This recipe is a combination of both of their recipes which I have added to over the years. Serve over hot cooked rice. The gumbo can be frozen or refrigerated and many people like it better the next day. Bon appetit!

Steps:
- Make a roux by whisking the flour and 3/4 cup bacon drippings together in a large, heavy saucepan over medium-low heat to form a smooth mixture. Cook the roux, whisking constantly, until it turns a rich mahogany brown color. This can take 20 to 30 minutes; watch heat carefully and whisk constantly or roux will burn. Remove from heat; continue whisking until mixture stops cooking.
- Place the celery, onion, green bell pepper, and garlic into the work bowl of a food processor, and pulse until the vegetables are very finely chopped. Stir the vegetables into the roux, and mix in the sausage. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-low heat, and cook until vegetables are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat, and set aside.
- Bring the water and beef bouillon cubes to a boil in a large Dutch oven or soup pot. Stir until the bouillon cubes dissolve, and whisk the roux mixture into the boiling water. Reduce heat to a simmer, and mix in the sugar, salt, hot pepper sauce, Cajun seasoning, bay leaves, thyme, stewed tomatoes, and tomato sauce. Simmer the soup over low heat for 1 hour; mix in 2 teaspoons of file gumbo powder at the 45-minute mark.
- Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons of bacon drippings in a skillet, and cook the okra with vinegar over medium heat for 15 minutes; remove okra with slotted spoon, and stir into the simmering gumbo. Mix in crabmeat, shrimp, and Worcestershire sauce, and simmer until flavors have blended, 45 more minutes. Just before serving, stir in 2 more teaspoons of file gumbo powder.

- Heat a large cast iron skillet on medium high heat and cook the bacon, set the bacon aside to drain and measure the bacon renderings to 1 cup and reserve the rest for cooking the vegetables or another use. If you don't have enough bacon renderings melt enough butter to add to the bacon grease to make one cup.
- Add 3 tablespoons olive oil or bacon grease to the cast iron skillet you cooked the bacon in and cook the onion and bell pepper until soft and set aside.
- Add the 1 cup of the bacon fat to the skillet over medium heat and stir in the flour. Lower the heat to low and cook for at least 1 hour, stirring every 5 minutes. The roux should be thick, but not chalky. A little grease will probably separate from the roux while cooking. When it is dark tan and smells like toasted nuts, it is done. Caution: The roux burns easily so watch it very carefully and stir often.
