In this hands-on and interactive cooking class, you’ll learn the secrets behind one of the South’s most iconic comfort foods.
Our Chef will guide you through the rich history and essential techniques of making authentic gumbo from scratch—starting with building a deep, dark roux (the real deal!), layering bold Creole and Cajun flavors, and adding in the holy trinity of vegetables: bell pepper, onion, and celery.
