Virtual Gumbo Experience

Consider this an intervention for anyone still making their gumbo with pre-made roux: New Orleans' own "Wizard of Roux" Chef Amy Sins is coming to kitchens everywhere to impart her wisdom about how to make a perfect, delicious gumbo with a high-energy, fun virtual experience. If five friends enter your name when they register, you could even win the chance to cook as Sous Chef alongside Chef Amy. The 2020 Virtual Gumbo Experience also offers the Cooking with the Champions Masterclass, where past champions and special guests will show participants how to make three different kinds of gumbo, chargrilled oysters, pecan pie, and more. The Gumbo Experience begins at 2 pm; tickets are $35 and include a limited-edition roux spoon (while supplies last), an email with the full recipe, a miniature Tabasco pepper sauce, and more. The MasterClass will be available to download for $15. shop.iberiachamber.org.
