Any Americans out there who fancy a gumbo on Thursday. I can manage 2 people and it's for free.... yes it does include....

 



Filé powder is used in Louisiana Creole cuisine in the making of some types of gumbo, a thick Creole soup or stew often served over rice.[1] Several different varieties exist. In New Orleans, what is known as Creole gumbo generally varies from house to house though still retaining its African and Native American origins. The Creoles of Cane River make a gumbo focused much more on filé. Filé can provide thickening when okra is not in season, in types of gumbo that use okra or a roux as a thickener for gumbo instead of filé.[2] Sprinkled sparingly over gumbo as a seasoning and a thickening agent, filé powder adds a distinctive, earthy flavor and texture.[3]

Filé powder is made by harvesting the young leaves and stems of the sassafras tree and grinding them.[4] Filé powder is generally not added until after the vegetables and meats and/or seafood are finished cooking and removed from the heat source.

Good question. I don't recall seeing them but then I've looked for them. There is a fairly well known Greek restaurant in Chaweng who would certainly use them so they must be available somewhere.

Makro is the most likely place.

Makro does not have caraway seeds. I was looking every where in Samui. But they only sell cumin seeds. I had some friends bringing caraway seeds from home...
