Title: TEAL OR POULE D’EAU GUMBO
Categories: Stews, Creole
Yield: 1 Servings

MMMMM—————————-ROUX———————————
3 tb Shortening
1 lg Onion
2 tb Flour
2 Toes garlic
1 Bay leaf
1 pn Thyme
Parsley
Salt and pepper to taste

MMMMM—————————GUMBO——————————–
2 Poules d’eau or teal; up to
-3
Shortening for sauteing
2 Dozen oysters with water
-(optional)
4 c Water; up to 6
File powder
Cooked rice

Add flour to shortening. Cook over low heat. Stir constantly, to avoid
scorching, until very brown. Add onions, garlic, bay leaf, thyme,
parsley, salt and pepper.

Skin poule d’eau or teal, wash, cut up, salt and pepper. Fry lightly
and set aside. Make basic roux, add poule d’eau or teal and water.
Simmer for about two hours or until tender. If using, add oysters and
oyster water (be sure and pick over them by hand for pearls and bits
of shell, and strain the water.) Add file individually when ready to
serve. Serve over rice.

Note: do not add file to a rapidly boiling pot or it will string (file
means thread). If you wish to season the entire pot, bring the
temperature down to a bare simmer, remove some liquid, let it cool
and stir in the file; then stir the mixture back into the pot. Do not
bring it to a rolling boil again.

HOMEMADE TOMATO SOUP

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Soups

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
3 tb Melted butter
2 tb Flour
2 c Cooked tomatoes or juice
1/4 ts Baking soda
1 t Salt
1/8 ts Pepper
2 c To 3 c cups milk

Cook the butter and flour together for a few minutes,
then gradually add tomatoes and cook a few more
minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients and heat
through, but do not boil. It’s a lot like making a
thin white sauce with tomatoes, if that helps.
