3:20:56Gumbo is especially good when its cold outside
3:20:59well, if you try it later in life you'll also love it
3:20:59The acidity of the tomatoes would help cut through that THICCNESS, yeah
3:21:01nd maybe some carrots or smth
3:21:02Some places in Louisiana use some tomatoes in gumbo
3:21:02I don’t think I’ve seen tomato’s in gumbo before and I’m speaking as a Texan
3:21:03tomatoes wouldn't be my first choice
3:21:05tomatoes can carry chili flavors too
3:21:07That's why gumbo is cold weather food. It sticks to your ribs
3:21:13Yeah I can see how tomatos would work in a gumbo
3:21:16Meh that's what makes food good (adaptability etc)
3:21:16I just joined stream what did you use okra Shiina? :face-red-heart-shape::face-red-heart-shape::face-red-heart-shape:
3:21:18Texans do beef and jalapeno more
3:21:26@kyleshepard3139 thats why in luisiana they use vinigar hotsauce in it
3:21:27ive for sure had tomatoes in the gumbo
3:21:29what sausage did you use, spicy or mild?
3:21:30this is what hot sauce was made for
3:21:31it cuts sharp against the smokey
3:21:31you can add a squeeze of acidity in other ways
3:21:34the acidity from the tomate makes it less heavy
3:21:36try sauteing the veggies next time
3:21:37acidity to balance things out
3:21:39now you know what you do and don't like about it
3:21:42you could make it more broth if its a little heavy for you
3:21:43@lupusebrius not a fan of tomatoes in gumbo personally but it can work
