Thank goodness for Amazon
I recently moved from Mississippi to Pennsylvania, and kinda panicked because there's a lot of thing I can't get up here. This stuff is good for gumbo, but mostly I use it to make gravy. The flavor is awesome, too easy to use, and lasts a long time

The best shortcut to a perfect pot of gumbo!
I LOVE this base. It has made making gumbo so much easier by cutting out that one step. It's also pretty flavorful, might want to put a dash of this and that but for a base this is so simple. Also, depending on how thick you like your base, you may want to add a little bit of cornstarch, thickening. I see now why this is always sold out and am grateful I lucked up on the 6 packages! will definitely order again.

Great fast dinner (45 minutes tops)
This stuff is great. Bought a couple of packs while in New Orleans and enjoyed making them. After those were used, I bought 6 more on Amazon. Took them to my kid's house and made it for them. Easy to do. I made the seafood one. ANY kind of fish, shrimp, clams, or mussels will do. VERY fast and good. I doctored the recipe by adding a package of frozen okra (fresh works extremely well too). Follow the recipe, then dump in the frozen or fresh okra for 5 minutes, then dump in the cut up seafood for 5 minutes and serve! I also added a few drops of hot sauce. I'll be using this again and again. PS: WATCH IT while it boils since it foams up and will overflow at the drop of a hat.

Great Gumbo - like we are back in the Pelican State!
We were visiting relatives in Baton Rouge and enjoyed their gumbo so much we asked for the recipe. This gumbo base was the secret. We've had favorable comments on the gumbo from people who lived in Louisiana for years!Grocery stores in our area of Florida don't stock it so we enjoy getting it from Amazon!

Have tried 5-6 Louisiana Fish Fry products and all have been 5 star rated.
Gumbo Base is easy, tasty, and loved by almost everyone. We like to use one packet to make two gumbos at the same time...half is shrimp gumbo, the other half is chicken & sausage gumbo. As with most chilis, it may taste better the second day!

Like gumbo? Buy this.
I have used this brand before, it's delicious! I was having a hard time finding it in stores and was delighted to find it here. A very fair price for six packages.. it's soooo good!
