Creole People Try Each Other's Gumbo

i had high hopes for this one oh god i'm sorry i don't want to hurt nobody's feeling i want to be nice [Music] my name is brianna nicole abrams i'm originally from new orleans and now i'm living in los angeles california my name is irma and i'm born and raised in eunice louisiana a town two and a half hours east of new orleans my name is raquel honore i'm from new orleans and i live in los angeles growing up in new orleans it was very family oriented and very cultural taking mustaches out of raccoons picking greens in the backyard whatever yes that's me during the springtime that's when everybody is having crawfish boils and that's like my favorite time in new orleans being creole is to me like one big extended family it has white spanish haitian you live in certain neighborhoods and everybody knows each other everybody's almost related the secret ingredient in this gumbo is okra a lot of people don't like okra but this is the kicker this is what makes gumbo gumbo this is actually a secret family recipe i can't really tell you what's in it but it's really good i don't make my gumbo hot i think mine is really flavorful you can tell it has a lot of love in it you taste all the spices and different seasonings because i make sure i pick good stuff and then it should be like you know smooth [Music] i'm gonna win today because i put love in my gumbo how can you lose with that [Music] um [Music] this is nice oh this thing oh yeah [Music] it has shrimp it's nice it's beautiful it's a good set of ingredients okay this one looks very unappetizing [Laughter] hers is just lighter i guess she didn't have that much time to make it this one doesn't look like they cooked the sauce long enough just because it's so white like the sauce should look dark and this looks like milk kinda [Music] i'm sorry it tastes like chicken noodle soup [Music] or they they have they made them both before i don't know either it just tastes like shrimp soup like it doesn't taste that good at all if i were home i'd be like what's wrong with the gunpowder i like that they try they get you know a for effort i'm struggling i don't know i don't think i don't know this is definitely a person from l.a yeah i give this a 3. she got to be like a second generation creole but this yeah this she wasn't with her mama i'm gonna say a four [Music] i'm gonna win the day because this is the ball [Music] okay this has a lot of meat in it nice dark gumbo it smells really good i usually like less rice but looks good [Music] i think the rice kind of overpowers it a little bit it's okra gumbo i like how it's not too spicy but you do [Music] taste the spices pretty good pretty good i think this person's from new orleans um because i just want to give everybody the benefit of the doubt i guess no i think they're 100 louisiana it tastes very authentic so i would maybe add some more seafood it's kind of like basic a little bit but for somebody who's you know not from new orleans i guess they would like it i would give this an eight i would give this a seven because it's not too bad but like i said the rice is definitely overpowering the flavor [Music] i'm going to win today because i put a lot of effort into this i cook this for about three hours and like i said i used a family recipe that's secretive so i feel like i'm gonna win [Music] okay they didn't separate everything juicy like i like it okay it's hard they got something hard in here y'all want me to taste it it looks like it has some some good ingredients some shrimp some peppers [Music] oh this is good yeah it tastes all right it tastes like california california gumbo i'm digging it this could be in the box like the tony sachery version of this it's got a punch of flavor it's got like you know when you still feel it on your your tongue and you're like mmm you know yeah okay yeah yeah okay i said i wasn't gonna talk bad about nobody food i would give this one a 9 i'm not going to front i'll give it a 9. i like it i will rate this a 5.
