Notes: This gumbo is worth the extra effort, time, and ingredients. Reheating only makes it better!
For a "chunkier" version, saute the chopped pepper, onion, and celery in butter. I don't mix the rice and gumbo until serving. The rice will thicken the soup too much for my taste. And the gumbo freezes well without the rice.
