About Gumbo soup

Gumbo is a hearty and flavorful soup that originates from Louisiana, blending elements of West African, French, and Spanish cuisines. Typically, this dish features a robust base of roux (a mix of fat and flour), broth, and the "holy trinity" of Cajun cooking: onions, bell peppers, and celery. Common protein additions include shrimp, chicken, sausage, or crab, and it's often brightened with Creole spices and okra or filé powder for thickening. Gumbo is traditionally served over rice, making it a filling and substantial meal. While it offers a mix of protein, fiber, and vitamins from its vegetables and seafood, its calorie count can be high due to the roux and sausage or other rich ingredients. Opting for lean proteins and less butter in the roux can make it a lighter yet still satisfying choice.
