Precook some chicken for the gumbo

Using the bones and some scrap veggies, go ahead and make some stock 

Heat up a cup of oil in your family's gumbo pot

Holy Trinity

Add 1 cup of flour and begin to make roux

Stir vigorously over medium high heat

Keep browning until you are satisfied. But don't let it burn

Add your chopped vegetables

This stops the cooking of the roux. Add red pepper, black pepper, salt, bay leaves, dried herbs and garlic

Stir in chicken and sausage

Add your homemade chicken stock

Bring to a boil and simmer until flavors marry and the rice is done

Serve with file, hot sauce, and plenty of rice

Paseo Caribbean Sandwich

Paseo Caribbean Restaurant

6226 Seaview Ave NW, Seattle

This post isn't one of me cooking but it wouldn't feel right if I did not share this sandwich from Paseo in northern Seattle on my blog. It is one of the best sandwiches I have ever eaten. It was incredibly messy, but overflowing with slow roasted pork and jaw dropping bread.
