Louisiana Gumbo

Today's menu features this gumbo from Louisiana, a dish with Creole origins. We prepare a sauce with a dark roux and homemade shrimp and chicken stock. The combination of white onion, bell pepper, and celery gives this dish a Cajun undertone, essential in many dishes from the southern United States. We fill the gumbo with fresh shrimp, okra, chorizo sausage, and pieces of chicken (better living 2 stars). This creates a richly packed stew, finished with fennel seeds, fresh parsley, and spring onion. It is served with steamed rice and a white cabbage and fennel salad.
