Scallop Gumbo

[ThaReapa]

Hahaha, the ability to cook gumbo is a skill. It's one of those things that just cannot be perfected. I hate to bash the video, because it seemed like he generally wanted to 'help' a community of 'quick fixers'; but gumbo simmers like red beans and rice do... It's not a 15 minute type meal you just whip up. The whole, "a lot of juice/little juice with my rice" deal is strictly preference. Proper "gumbo" will always have a soupy (juice-like) texture instead of saucy.. 'Foreigners' + Gumbo = Eww..

He said it was "sort of authentic" and "gumbo-esque", stop being a bunch of whiny babies

[Tizzlin]

lol that aint gumbo, you fucknut.

[uylin22]

No Okra, No Filé powder.....What? This is just a tomato sauce with roux. Not authentic. Sorry.

[samuelvic]

NO SALT , NO PEPPER, NO PAPRIKA , NO OKRA. REMEMBER OKRA = GUMBO.

THIS LOOKS MORE LIKE SCALLOPS CREOL, LOOKS VERY TASTY BY THE WAY

I'm confused about why it's so red. Doesn't look like a gumbo, but it still looks delicious.

tomato and scallop soup - not gumbo

[Phoenixspin]

It was strange, I think I would want my scallops cooked more.

@Phoenixspin If you like eating shoe leather than leave it in there longer

[dookiekong007]

@Phoenixspin just like shrimp, no need to be cooked for long.

[cassiemarie46]

[graves47]

goddamn bittman, you never disappoint!

[caserus]

To much tomato. It's more like a creole than a gumbo.

[k7dog]

i agree to much tomato need more stock and gumbo is sappost to be brown not red

[BigKwell]

@caserus Also, he should've added spicy sausage (don't know the cajun name), and maybe sliced okra. But it looks good anyway.

Also, I think bay scallops would do nicely if you can't find sea scallops.
