About Gumbo
Gumbo is a hearty stew that originates from Louisiana Creole and Cajun cuisine, blending African, French, Spanish, and Native American culinary influences. Its signature flavor comes from a rich roux combined with ingredients like okra, meat or seafood (such as chicken, sausage, shrimp, or crab), and the "holy trinity" of vegetables—onion, bell pepper, and celery. Served over rice, gumbo is celebrated for its bold, comforting taste. Nutritionally, gumbo can be a source of protein and vitamins from vegetables, but its healthiness varies depending on preparation. Roux made with butter or oil, fatty meats like sausage, and added salt can increase calorie and fat content. Opting for lean proteins and minimizing added fats and sodium can make gumbo a more balanced choice while still delivering its traditional, robust flavors.
