Bubba Shrimp Gumbo- The mild, pleasing flavor of Bubba Shrimp Gumbo is the result of
five cooking cultures.
Gumbo began its colorful journey with the use of sassafras, a common tree root used by the
American Indians in Louisiana. Next, the French introduced deep roux sauces with Africans
adding okra and slow cooking methods. Spanish chefs brought their fondness for mixing shrimp in
the same dish and the use of rice with savory spices.
But the fifth and final ingredient is the soul of Bubba Shrimp Gumbo. From the Caribbean
comes cayenne pepper - the fire in every bowlful. Don't fret though, this week, you sprinkle on
your own level of heat. Mild, or make it wild? It's always your choice at Applegate's.
