New Orleans Seafood Gumbo is a savory stew rooted in Creole and Cajun cuisine, showcasing the vibrant cultural heritage of Louisiana. This hearty dish typically includes shrimp, crab, and sometimes oysters, combined with flavorful aromatics like bell peppers, celery, and onion, known as the "holy trinity" of Southern cooking. A roux, made by slowly cooking flour and fat, forms the base, imparting richness alongside okra or filé powder for thickening. Though gumbo is packed with protein from seafood and fiber from vegetables, its traditional preparation can be high in sodium and saturated fats depending on seasoning and added meats like sausage. Served over rice, gumbo is both comforting and nutrient-dense, offering essential vitamins like B12 from seafood and antioxidants from spices. For a healthier version, opt for less salt, lean proteins, and whole-grain rice.
