My Gumbo recipe can be made with or without tomatoes and although I made it in this video without tomatoes, I prefer it with tomatoes. It can also be made spicy or mild. Again, in this video, I toned down the spice for a friend, but I typically LOVE the hot spice on my palette. I've also made this recipe with a little bit of a healthier twist! This recipe is all about the roux and the love.
