Gumbo

Gumbo is a rich, flavorful stew from Louisiana, known for its dark roux base, the "holy trinity" of celery, bell peppers, and onions, and a combination of meat (like chicken and andouille sausage) or seafood (like shrimp and crab). It's thickened with okra or filé powder and traditionally served hot over rice, with variations like Cajun (no tomatoes) and Creole (often includes tomatoes).
