The Kitchen: New Orleans Square Gumbo
Since we are approaching Disneyland’s 55th Anniversary, I though it was appropriate to post one of Walt’s personal favorite recipes. ENJOY!
(Steak, Chicken, Seafood, or Veggie)
(You may notice by the amounts mentioned in the ingredients below that this is the mass-production recipe; you will probably want to adjust the quantity.)
1 lb. Butter
1 lb. Flour
22 cups Chicken Stock
6.5 oz. Diced Celery
6.5 oz Diced Onions
½ lb. Cooked Rice
¾ lb. Diced Meat (Chicken, Steak, or Seafood)
2 cups Diced Tomatoes
½ ob. Cut Okra
Salt to taste
1/8 oz. White Pepper
1/8 oz. Cayenne Pepper
1/8 oz. Gumbo File
4. oz. Roux (2 oz. Flour & 2 oz. Butter)
Melt butter in a sauce pan; add flour to make a roux (mix of butter and flour). Cook for 1/ hour, add onion and celery, cook for 5 minutes, add stock (can be made with a mix of water and chicken base) making sure roux is dissolved completely, simmer for 10 minutes, add remaining ingredients, return to a simmer. Adjust salt to taste.
Note: Using seafood, add seafood at the last minute (making sure seafood is cooked before removing from pot).
