I have always seen cooking shows and Chefs making Gumbo and they always pull out the different forms of fish to make it. I didn't want to make it with things I would not eat and just make it and toss it out. This is the first time I have heard of making Gumbo and told it was a base to put in whatever you would like. Why hasn't anyone else ever said this and just automatically bring out all the fish and crayfish when they start to make Gumbo? Leave it to The Reluctant Gourmet to tell me this. Thank you so much. Now I can make and taste Gumbo for the first time. Love this..Thanks. As always so glad to receive mail from “The Reluctant Gourmet” enjoy it so much.

I know there are software programs available that allow you to add your recipes and the software will figure out the percentages. I have thought about using one of these programs but it takes a lot of time to enter the information and if you are using a product that is not in their data base, your numbers are all off. Also, what if I make an entry mistake and the numbers are off. I may accidentally give someone with food restrictions bad info, something I would not like to do. Lastly, I usually recommend home cooks to alter my recipes based on their own likes and what they "have on hand". I might suggest you try one of these commercial programs and when you find a recipe you like, plug it into your software and see if it fits your diet. If not, maybe you can make some adjustments to the recipe to work for you. Hi Margaret, I agree and I wish I had time to research all my recipes and add those numbers.
