A Revolutionary Recipe
Gumbo is more than just a dish — it’s a reflection of Southern, Creole, and
Cajun history, blending African, French, and Indigenous influences into one
pot. Leah Chase, the "Queen of Creole Cuisine," perfected this iconic meal,
serving it to civil rights activists at her New Orleans restaurant, Dooky Chase.
