Roux could have been darker, but flavor is excellent. Not as good as Prejean’s , but close.
2 lbs shrimp, 1 1/2 lbs andouille, one pound crab..

Sometimes a light roux is good. As long s you cook out the raw flour taste all is well.
I'm reheating a pot of gumbo now,
BTW a light roux thickens dishes easier than dark.

Most people double haul so they can throw their mistakes further - Bernard "Lefty" Kreh - R.I.P.

Printed off internet, made some changes, Just finished 3rd bowl. , It was better than the 1st.
I think next time I will use crappie instead of crab.
