Nanny's Seafood Gumbo 5 Star Family Favorite image

This is one of the many recipes from my grandmothers cookbook. She passed away in May of 2005 and I am recording her wonderful recipes for my family and the many generations that will follow. I hope you enjoy her recipes as much as we do. I have not made each one yet-so cooking time and servings may vary. Blessings from FOURMRANCHWIFE in Texas. (THIS IS ONE OF MY PERSONAL FAVORITES!)

Time 2h30m

Yield 3 quarts, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

2 lbs fresh peeled shrimp
1 lb crabmeat
2 (15 ounce) cans chopped tomatoes
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 bell pepper, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
4 teaspoons butter
3 quarts water
2 cups okra, cut up and cooked
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
salt
pepper
4 teaspoons cajun seasoning
1/2 cup parsley, finely chopped
basic roux

Steps:

To make the Basic Roux: Heat 3/4 cup oil in a iron skillet. When oil is hot, gradually add 1 cup flour, stirring continuously until well mixed. Lower heat and continue to stir until chocolate brown. When roux is chocolate brown remove from skillet and set aside. If it remains in skillet it will continue to cook and get to dark.
In a large pot-not a black iron pot-saute onion,celery,bell pepper, garlic and okra in butter for about 10 minutes. Add roux, water and worcestershire.
Cook for 1 hour.
Add all other ingredients, except for parsley. Cook for 1 more hour.Adjust seasoning if needed- salt and pepper are to taste. Add parsley.
Serve over rice.
This is better the next day- if there is any left. This says serves 6 - Nanny usually made a double batch.

SEAFOOD GUMBO

Seafood Gumbo image

For many African Americans, seafood gumbo is an essential part of New Year's celebrations. This version, adapted from the chef JJ Johnson, uses celebratory seafood, such as scallops, crab, lobster and shrimp, and includes okra rounds in a nod to his family's southern roots. Mr. Johnson also pulled inspiration from Gullah Geechee cuisine, Native American and West African flavors and Louisiana's culinary traditions for the ultimate melting pot of gumbo. Be sure to make the gumbo spice mix, which adds heat and depth to this luxurious and comforting stew.

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 31

Ingredients

1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon powdered bay leaf (see Tip 1)
1 1/2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, or more to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne, or more to taste
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 tablespoons smoked paprika
1 tablespoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
4 tablespoons salted butter
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 small onion, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 small celery stalk, finely chopped
1/2 red bell pepper, finely chopped
1/2 cup grape tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup dried shrimp (optional; see Tip 2)
1 tablespoon tomato paste
5 cups store-bought or homemade chicken stock
4 ounces fresh or thawed frozen okra, sliced into rounds (1 cup)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 lobster tails, shelled and cut into 3/4-inch pieces (optional; see Tip 3)
1/4 pound picked crab meat
1/4 pound sea scallops
1/2 pound medium shrimp
Kosher salt and black pepper
4 cups cooked jasmine rice, for serving

Steps:

Make the spice mix: Place all ingredients in a bowl and stir until combined. Set aside 2 tablespoons to add to the gumbo and reserve the rest for another use in an airtight container.
Make the gumbo: In a heavy 4- to 5-quart pot, heat the butter and oil over medium heat. Once the butter begins to bubble slightly, add the flour and stir with a wooden spoon or heatproof spatula to form a smooth paste.
Cook the mixture, stirring continuously, for 10 to 13 minutes to make a chocolate-colored roux. Make sure to scrape the bottom and sides of the pot to avoid burning. It is important to keep a very close eye on the roux during this step. The roux can go from a nutty color and aroma to burnt beyond repair in a matter of minutes. Lower the heat as needed.
Immediately add the onion, garlic, celery, bell pepper and tomatoes and stir well. The vegetables will stop the roux from overcooking and burning. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables start to stick to the pan, 5 to 10 minutes. Add the dried shrimp, if using, tomato paste and 2 tablespoons spice mix and cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes.
While whisking, slowly add the stock and whisk until the stock is completely blended with the roux and vegetable mixture. Add the okra, lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce and let simmer for 50 minutes over very low heat, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon. Add the lobster, crab, scallops and shrimp and simmer just until cooked through, about 10 minutes more.
Season the gumbo to taste with salt and pepper and serve over rice.
