I found this gumbo to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding more spices and seasonings to taste.

This gumbo is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend reducing the amount of cayenne pepper if you don't like spicy food.

I'm not a big fan of okra, but I loved the way it was cooked in this gumbo. It was soft and slimy, but not too slimy.
