About 2 years ago I went to my Aunts house in Vacherie, shes in her early 70s. She asked if I wanted a bowl of Shrimp and Okra Gumbo. Well I didn't get fat looking at food so I told her yes. I ate the bowl of gumbo and it was superb. I said, TaTaunt that's a good gumbo, She said ya Nonc cooked that in the Microwave. I said oh it was frozen and yall heated it up? She said no he cooked the whole thing in the microwave roux and all. He made a roux, browned his onions, added pre smothered okra, added his shrimp, then added his stock. Said it took him about 30 minutes.
