? Is it OK to serve gumbo with brown rice?
 

Making a big pot of turkey gumbo today (*big* pot. About 10 quarts.)
First gumbo I've made this winter. Would it be too heretical to serve
it with brown rice instead of white? (I also have wild rice that needs
to be cooked, but that's too weird even for me)

Okay with whom? Are you inviting people from Louisiana? Plain turkey gumbo
might be heretical unless you also plan to add andouille sausage ;)

It may not be "authentic" if that's what you were looking for. But
it's really up to you, isn't it? If you like the taste/texture or
prefer the nutirtional value of brown rice more, go for it.

I just hope Emeril doesn't stop by for a taste... :)

I've done it. But my family doesn't know, and I won't tell them.

Interesting question, but I would have to ask "OK for whom?"
Three years ago I would never have thought to put whole wheat
pasta in my mouth. Now I look for preps that profit from that
rich flavor.

Is it OK to make gumbo with sun-dried tomato sausage? Hm.

Alex, who says go for it.

Okay for whom? Its your food. You presumably paid for it with your
money. Its your kitchen. Its your body. If you want to eat your gumbo
over brown rice, do it. End of story.

How did it come out? I see no reason why it wouldnt work well enough if the
seasonings were adjusted to complement the brown rice.

No but you might need a fork lift to leave the table.

That's OK, just don't tell George. I don't want him making fun of me.

Well since Turkey is a New World food and Wild Rice is a New World food...I
think you should cook up some brown rice and 1/3 that amount of wild rice
(different pots) and mix the 2 before serving. (So for every 1 cup brown
rice...1/3 cup wild rice.)
