Cooking Gumbo with Grandma Part 3

Birt Lewis and her granddaughters take us step by step through the process of making gumbo: wash chicken wings, add celery, onion, garlic, green bell pepper (red bell peppers are too sweet), 2 cups ham, 2 cups sliced sausage, peel and de-vein 2 lbs shrimp, wrap herbs (rosemary, marjoram, tarragon, oregano) in cheesecloth, as a bouquet, make roux (one stick of butter melted in a pan, plus one cup flour browned in a pan for 20 minutes), then add roux to the pot, cook for ten minutes. Add lump crab meat and shrimp. She clearly loves cooking with kids, especially her grandchildren.
