How a Canadian Makes Gumbo | Cookin' Somethin' w/ Matty Matheson

I love gumbo you love gumbo we love gumbo have you ever made a whole pot of gumbo and ate the whole thing in one seeding by yourself alone sad looking into the bowl of gumbo by the time you get down to the bottom it's cold just like life like when you stare into the sun when you look out into the ocean and you see dolphins popping up flying in the air diving back down having fun being like damn I wish I was a dolphin do you Dolphins don't have iPads mm they don't got Google Earth imagine a dolphin all of a sudden brought out an iPad and opened up Google Earth and zoomed all the way out have you ever actually used Google Earth where like you just zoom all the way out and you're like damn there it is just a speck on a flea on a dog getting itched by the [Applause] [Music] Galaxy half a cup of pork lard let's start [ __ ] all this [ __ ] gumbo town I've been to New Orleans a couple times Big Dog's got that pork lard I've had gumbo a couple times I've even made gumbo before that's a half a cup of lard we're going to melt that down and I know your mom and your grandma melting it down made it way better than me melting it down I'm never going to be able to do it right I'm just trying to show the love that I have and I really want a gumbo we need to make a dark rout we're going to have to cook this kind of gently and slowly this isn't High heat cuz we don't want it burnt PSA not from the south I'm from Canada we're going to add in our flour we're going to stir now we're going to turn the heat down right now it kind of looks like oat milk we're going to bring this till it's a nice golden beautiful dark R while we're doing that we got our celery the jalapeno our onion and our bell pepper this is how you cut stuff up when you're putting it in a blender don't judge me I'm going to just blend these up with no liquid in them nothing oh yeah we're good here you can thicken something with a rue so then it makes more volume but if you reduce it to a thickness it takes a lot more product therefore I think adding a rue was something that they would do to create more volume does that make sense it's all about this this is the base look at this looks like almond butter this is what takes the time cuz everything else is relatively quick I want get it to the point where everyone's like yeah that's dank you know I could cheat and just put some soy sauce in it and make it look real nice ooh look at that smell that do you smell that that's it that's as good I I don't know I'm panicking what's happening I'm like this is how you guys feel at all times cooking at home I
