UPPERLINE'S DUCK AND ANDOUILLE GUMBO



Upperline's Duck and Andouille Gumbo image

Chefs dating back to Upperline restaurant's opening in New Orleans, in 1982, have contributed to the development of its famous duck-andouille gumbo. Miguel Gabriel, a longtime Upperline "soup chef," has been responsible for the dark-roux brew since 2010. The recipe also works if you substitute chicken stock for duck stock - and buy the roast duck from your local Chinese restaurant.

Categories     dinner, soups and stews, main course

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup canola or peanut oil
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 white onion, diced
5 celery stalks, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
2 links andouille sausage or other smoked sausage (about 1/2 pound), cut into 1/2-inch half-moons
3 quarts duck or chicken stock
2 tablespoons dried thyme
2 tablespoons dried oregano
3 dried bay leaves
2 garlic cloves, minced
6 cups pulled roasted duck meat, skin discarded and meat roughly chopped (from 1 to 2 roast ducks; buy these from a Chinese restaurant if you like)
Salt, to taste
Hot sauce (such as Crystal brand), to taste
Cooked rice or potato salad, for serving

Steps:

  • Prepare the roux: In a large Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high. (A large stockpot works, but a Dutch oven is ideally shaped for whisking a roux.) Slowly shake the flour over the oil with one hand while whisking with the other hand. Continue to whisk until the roux darkens to a glossy, dark red-brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and stir the onion, celery and bell peppers into the roux to prevent it from burning, about 3 minutes. Stir in the sausage and cook until coated, a few more minutes.
  • Gradually add the stock, stirring constantly as you add the liquid. Add the thyme, oregano, bay leaves and garlic and simmer over medium-low, stirring and skimming every 20 minutes, until the flavors have melded, about 2 hours. For a thinner gumbo, add water, as desired (up to 2 cups).
  • Stir in the duck meat just before serving and cook until warmed, 3 to 5 minutes. (An extended cook time would turn the meat mushy.) Add the salt and hot sauce to taste. Serve over rice or potato salad.

DUCK GUMBO

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 8h

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 31

5 to 6 ducks
2 large yellow onions, diced
2 large bell peppers, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
3 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 bay leaves
Water, to cover the ducks
1/2 pound bacon
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
Vegetable oil (if needed)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
Reserved duck broth
1 large yellow onion, chopped
1 large bell pepper, chopped
2 (15-ounce) cans diced tomatoes, drained
Salt and pepper
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
2 tablespoons mango-tamarind spicy Jamaican pepper sauce (recommended: Pick-a-Peppa brand)
1 large package smoked pork sausage, diced and browned
Reserved chopped duck meat
1/2 cup finely chopped reserved bacon
1 package frozen okra, cooked to package directions, drained
1 pound raw shrimp, cut into small pieces
2 tablespoons gumbo file
White rice and French bread, as accompaniment

Steps:

  • Broth:
  • To a large stockpot, add the ducks, onions, bell peppers, garlic, bouillon, salt, pepper, bay leaves, and enough water to cover the ducks. Bring to a boil and cook the ducks for about 1 hour, until tender. Remove ducks and pull the breast meat from the bones and chop them into small pieces - use only the breast meat and discard the rest of the bird or save for another use. Strain the broth and save. Set aside the chopped duck breast and broth to use later.
  • Roux:
  • In a large, deep, black skillet or kettle, fry the bacon. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon, leaving the grease in the pan. To the hot bacon grease, slowly add the flour, if the mixture is of a paste consistency, add more bacon grease or oil until it's loose and easy to stir. Stirring constantly, flour-grease mixture should cook on medium heat until a dark caramel color is obtained. Add the salt and pepper and stir. As soon as the salt and pepper are stirred into the roux, add the remaining ingredients to make the gumbo.
  • To the hot roux, add broth, then the onions, peppers and tomatoes. Add the seasonings. Then add sausage, duck, bacon pieces and okra. Next add the shrimp, cook until shrimp is pink. Finally, add the gumbo file and stir. Let gumbo simmer for about 1 hour. The longer it simmers, the better it gets.
  • Serve over white rice with hot French bread

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 1/2 teaspoon paprika and salt, and sprinkle liberally over duck. Arrange dice of onion, carrot and 1 stalk celery in a roasting pan. Place duck on a rack in pan. Roast 1 1/2 hours.
  • Whisk flour and oil together in a heavy- bottomed pot, and simmer over low to moderate heat, whisking constantly, until mixture turns chocolate brown, about 45 minutes. Set aside.
  • Remove duck meat from bones, and reserve. Place carcass and bones in a 6-quart stockpot. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons fat from roasting pan. Add broth and 1 quart water to pot, and simmer 1 hour.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon duck fat in a large skillet over medium heat. Add peppers, remaining celery, garlic, carrot, scallions, parsley, lemon juice, remaining paprika, allspice, remaining pepper, oregano, thyme and bay leaves. Saute until soft, about 8 minutes. Stir in tomato paste.
  • Strain stock into a large pot, and add water to make 12 cups liquid. Bring to a boil, and vigorously whisk in roux a spoonful at a time until liquid thickens. Add vegetable mixture. Simmer 30 minutes.
  • Wipe the large skillet, and heat remaining duck fat over low heat. Fry okra gently for 15 to 20 minutes, turning often to avoid scorching. Add to pot with duck meat, and simmer 20 minutes. Serve over rice.
