      CHRS: CP437 2       MSGID: 1:18/200@fidonet 668a567a       PID: MBSE-BBS 1.1.0 (Linux-x86_64)       TZUTC: -0400       TID: MBSE-FIDO 1.1.0 (Linux-x86_64)       MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06                Title: Nawlins Shrimp Gumbo w/Andouille Sausage        Categories: Seafood, Pork, Vegetables, Herbs, Chilies        Yield: 7 servings                1/2 c (120 ml) peanut oil        1/2 c + 2 tb (90 g) A-P flour        1 Green bell pepper; chopped        1 md Onion; chopped        3 Celery ribs; chopped        4 cl Garlic; minced        1 tb Cajun seasoning        1 qt (950 ml) shellfish or        - chicken stock        +=PLUS=+        1 c (236 ml) water        2 ts Worcestershire sauce        12 oz (340 g) smoked andouille        - sausage; in 1/4" rounds        2 lb (907 g) shrimp; peeled,        - deveined        Salt and pepper        5 Green onions; white & green,        - chopped        1 tb File powder        Hot sauce                MAKE THE ROUX: Heat the peanut oil in a large,        thick-bottomed pot, such as a Dutch oven, on medium high        heat, for a minute or two. Whisk in the flour and lower        the heat to medium. Stir almost constantly, making sure        to scrape the bottom of the pan as you stir.                Let the roux cook until it is the color of peanut        butter, then lower the heat to medium low. Keep cooking        and stirring (careful, you want the flour to cook, not        burn!) until the roux is the color of an old penny,        about 20-30 minutes total time.                Note that as the roux cooks, first it will clump up and        thicken, but as the flour continues to brown past the        peanut butter color stage, it will loosen up a bit.                STIR IN THE VEGETABLES: Mix in the "holy trinity" of        green pepper, onion and celery and increase the heat to        medium-high. Cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes.                Add the garlic and cook another 2 minutes. Stir in the        Cajun seasoning.                SLOWLY ADD STOCK, THEN SIMMER: In a separate pot, heat        the stock and water until steamy. Slowly add the steamy        stock and water to the bell pepper onion roux mixture,        stirring constantly while you do so.                Bring the gumbo to a simmer and add the Worcestershire        sauce and salt to taste. Simmer gently for 30 minutes.                If you find that the roux has broken a bit and oil is        pooling on the surface of the gumbo, whisk in about        another 1/2 to 1 cup of water. This will often "fix" it.                STIR IN THE ANDOUILLE SAUSAGE: Cook for 5 minutes        (andouille sausage is already cooked, so you just need        to heat it).                ADD THE SHRIMP AND SIMMER: Add the shrimp, and a        tablespoon of file powder (if using), return to a        simmer, and cook another 5 minutes, until the shrimp has        just cooked through. Add salt and black pepper to taste.                SERVE: Serve with white rice, garnished with green        onions. To eat, sprinkle with filĂ© powder and hot sauce.                By Elise Bauer                Makes: 6 to 8 servings                RECIPE FROM: https://www.simplyrecipes.com                Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives               MMMMM              ...
