Quick and easy taste of New OrleansNov 30, 2009
By R. Dunbar Luzianne Gumbo Dinner, 8-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6)
When I was in New Orleans for the first time twenty years ago, a friend recommended this product, which is made in Louisiana, as an easy way to get the taste of gumbo. Since then, I've used it many times, although I can also make "real" gumbo. Don't worry about it being too spicy--the red pepper is in a separate packet and you control how much you want. You supply the meat and water, they supply everything else. You can supplement it with your own sauted peppers and onions and make it with chicken broth instead of water. But even if you just make it "as is," it's a great, economical, and warming meal for lunch or supper. If you have the time, serve it with homemade cornbread.

I like it! :-)Jan 29, 2008
By Tony Jaeger It seems to have more peppers and other vegetables in the mix than other brands of Gumbo mix and I really appreciate the seperate packet of red pepper which allows you to regulate the spiciness to taste. It also seems to be less 'gooey', for lack of a better word. Could this be from a different (better) roux recipe?
Some other brands tend to have their powdered ingedients "clump" together when cooked, necessitating your making a pre-cook mash in order to insure even distribution....not so here. Even an admittedly inexperienced "chef" (chortle) like myself was able to have it come out perfectly the very first time....if I can make it come out well, anyone can!
The directions are very easy and at the same time more helpful and specific than those included with other brands, but there's one thing that people unaccustomed to spicy foods might wish to consider....the directions call for you to add 1/2 of the red pepper packet contents into the pot at the outset, and the rest later on to your taste. If you are particularly sensitive to spicy foods you may wish to consider adding a little less than 1/2 of the packet the very first time you cook this. I didn't find it overly spicy when cooked according to the recommendations but the red pepper was definitely noticeable, and so I'm including this little suggestion for people who are more used to very mild foods. I loved it when cooked just the way the directions called for, however.
Please be advised that this review is biased due to the fact that I'm happily eating Luzianne's gumbo as I write this review! :-)

Best gumbo mix ever! Yet soooo hard to find!Jun 30, 2008
By V. Lemons This box makes the most delicious gumbo. No other mix has ever compared for me, yet local stores never stock the Luzianne mixes!! I'm so glad that I can at least order them from Amazon - I've enjoyed this mix for about 12 years now.
The best prepackaged gumbo mix I've triedJan 30, 2011
By Jennifer Grant This is definitely the best pre-packaged gumbo mix I have ever tried. It has an authentic taste and consistency, and you can regulate the seasoning. Sadly I haven't seen this around in my area in a few years. Thank goodness for being able to order online.
