Rick, silky, and delcious, this is a nice thick gumbo that is not too hot. I'm usually all about fast and easy, but this recipe is a real treat that I think is worth the extra time it takes to have the ingredients and prepare. We buy the crawfish shelled and ready to dump in the pot from the freezer section of our grocery store.
