As the ingredients blend, add diced garlic, tomatoes, spices and shrimp broth. As the gumbo simmers, prepare the sausage and shrimp. After 20 minutes, allow the whole dish to simmer for the flavors to marry and create that perfect stew-like consistancy. In this video, Chef Mark provides an easy to follow online cooking lesson for cajun shrimp gumbo. For more great cooking demonstration videos, subscribe to the LearnToCookOnline YouTube channel.
