Nice kitchen Morpheus! I didn't know you were a gourmet chef. Let us know how the chocolate veggies turn out! Mrs. Morph must be one happy lady!:)
|
Is there anyway that you can post the recipe? That looks fabulous.

Is that an electric stove? I"m impressed. I thought it took a gas stove to make a good roux... My house is all electric except for my one gas stove. Couldn't cook without it. :D Dig the granite countertops... I've never made a successful gumbo but I think that maybe now is my time. (I failed once or twice) I used to love seafood gumbo with oysters and shrimp and crabmeat.... over rice.. dang I want some!! :D

Far as I can tell, the secret to the roux (and I'm by no means an expert) is constant stirring. I used a whisk, and I whisked it so much that it actually got a bit foamy. But, it didn't burn! Gumbo should be no problem for a man dedicated enough to his craft to start the smoker at 2am. No time like the present! I recommend copious amounts of wine for the cook. |

I haven't bought any lump crabmeat in years. Anyone know of a good place to buy a pound? Fresh shucked oysters might be overkill for a gumbo, but that would be awesome to add to the pot along with shrimp. It's been a very long time since I had some homemade seafood gumbo. |

Per my request Mrs. Isaac made some stuffed bell peppers last night and I shot these photos. Time out about one hour from start to finish. I did help a little but she did most of the work. The bell peppers are from my garden which makes them taste even better. This is man food :D

I just might take you up on that Sir, if things slow down a bit. I'm a bit swamped right now, both professionally and personally. When I dig out I'll give you the nod. On second thought, I'll spring for the seafood too. Takes the pressure off, you know.
