With a heritage claiming both French and West African roots, gumbo is a thick stew served over rice and made with a roux.
About this Event

With so many options, most every New Orleans family perfected its own treasured recipe, leading to impassioned debates on which one is best. During this hands-on class, Rita Bolick will share her New Orleans family gumbo recipe handed down from great-grandmother Leone. Rita’s classmate from culinary school, Extension Agent Margie Mansure, will procure the finest farm-fresh ingredients. As is tradition, we’ll make a Southern-style Cajun potato salad to go along with it.
