#cause it's mrs Gogol's recipe that i base my gumbo on

[below-my-s0ul]

Made gumbo in my fancy big pot for the first time and I thought I'd document it here cause apparently food is all I post about, tho for this one I'm gonna add the drinks I'm having as well cause I'm listening to the 200th episode of The Poisoner's Cabinet that just came out so I'm having some of my favorite drinks that they've introduced me to

Here's the roux with a lovely rum based drink called The Shark Bite on the side

And here I'm halfway there after adding the stock (and more of every vegetable than is in the recipe cause I can [and excuse my use of a recipe, I'm Norwegian and have never been to Louisiana, I got this from Nanny Ogg's Cookbook and it's very good])

Added more hotsauce (it's taco sauce cause uuuhhhh it's the spiciest thing I have) and bourbon cause you can never go wrong with more Bulleit. And the drink behind that is a Guillotine, dangerously delicious, cause it's pretty much just different types of alcohol

Here's the finished product and once again it's fucking delicious! Maybe someday I'll be brave enough to do more than small adjustments (last time I tried not to use the recipe I forgot the tomatoes, so I'm still gonna use it as a guideline for securities sake)

#my stuff #food #alcohol #i do recommend the poisoner's cabinet if you like historical crimes and especially poison #they talk about cases that are farther in the past with a focus on the victorian age #im gonna add #gnu terry pratchett #cause it's mrs Gogol's recipe that i base my gumbo on #tho mine isn't very clairvoyant (but that might just be my shortcoming)
