 | | A peek into a pot of gumbo is a peek into the rich history of Louisiana. |
 | | There's no such thing as a definitive gumbo recipe, because part of the enduring nature of the dish is that it's adaptable to whatever ingredients are available at the time. |
 | | The featured ingredients in a pot of gumbo can include delights and delicacies from land, sea and air, including sausage (especially andouille and chaurice), tasso, crawfish, crab, shrimp, oysters, chicken, duck, rabbit, dove, or other game animals - like squirrel, possum, nutria (beaver-sized rodents that inhabit the waterways of Louisiana), frog or alligator. |
