YOUR GROCERY LIST:

🥘Extra virgin olive oil. Feel free to use your favorite high-quality EVOO.
🥘All-purpose flour + water. The mixture when combined should be a “milky” thick consistency for thickening the gumbo.
🥘Vegetable oil.
🥘Onion. Diced (You can use yellow, white, or red)
🥘Bell peppers, diced
🥘Celery stalk. Chopped small. Adds depth and a subtle, aromatic flavor.
🥘Garlic cloves. Minced. Infuses the gumbo with rich, aromatic notes.
🥘Andouille sausage. Sliced into rounds. Contributes smoky, spicy flavors and adds heartiness to the dish.
🥘Worcestershire sauce. My favorite is from Annies.
🥘Cajun seasoning. You can use store brought or homemade. Add more or less based on tastebuds.
🥘Cayenne pepper. For extra spice.
🥘Seafood stock (You can also use chicken or veggie stock)
🥘Tomato paste. Adds a rich, slightly tangy flavor. (You can also sub with a 28 oz. can of crushed tomatoes)
🥘Can diced tomatoes.
🥘4 thyme sprigs
🥘Shrimp. Large wild-caught shrimp, peeled + deveined
🥘Wild-caught lobster tails. It’s such a nice succulent meat with a delicate flavor and firm texture.
🥘Mussels. You can sub with crab legs, oysters, or whatever seafood you love.
🥘Okra. Fresh or frozen, optional.
🥘Fresh parsley. Chopped.
