3 qt Fish broth; directions below
2 lb 26-30 per lb shrimp
2 lg (3 lb. ea) cooked Dungeness

1 1/2 lb Kielbasa; in 1" chunks

1/4 c Chopped parsley

Pour oil into a heavy 10" to 12" frying pan on medium-
high heat; when oil is hot (about 325ºF), add flour all
at once. Stir often until roux is a rich, deep caramel
color, 7 to 8 minutes. Off the heat, dump in the onions
and bell peppers all at once. Stir until foaming stops
and vegetables are soft, about 1 minute.
Meanwhile, in a 12 to 16 quart pan, bring broth to
boiling; stir in the hot roux. If made ahead, cover and
chill up until next day. Cover and reheat to simmering.
Devein shrimp in shell by sliding a thin wooden skewer
into back and under vein, then gently pulling vein out;
repeat in several places along back. Rinse shrimp; add
all at once to broth with crab in shell, crab meat,
sausage, and oysters (with liquid). Cover and simmer
very gently so flavors mingle, 15 to 30 minutes. Add 2
tablespoons hot pepper seasoning.
Transfer gumbo to a large serving bowl and sprinkle with
parsley. Ladle portions over rice in wide soup bowls. Add
liquid hot pepper seasoning and salt to taste.
Makes 12 to 14 servings.
Fish broth. Rinse well 1 pound cod or rockfish, about 4
pounds heads, bones, and trimmings from white-flesh fish
such as cod, rockfish, lingcod, sole, or halibut; put
into a 10 to 12 quart pan. Add 4 quarts water, 2 large
(about 1 lb. total) chopped onions, 4 dry bay leaves, 2
teaspoons black peppercorns, 2 bottles (8-oz. size) clam
juice, and 2 ribs celery (chopped). Bring to a boil,
cover, and simmer 5 to 6 hours.
Pour broth through a fine strainer into a large bowl;
discard residue. Boil on high heat, uncovered, until
reduced to 3 quarts. If made ahead, cover and chill up
until next day, or freeze for longer storage.
Makes 3 quarts.
