A big pot of green goodness, gumbo z’herbes is made by stewing and then puréeing hearty collards, spicy mustard greens, and peppery watercress. All those sustainable greens provide vitamins and minerals and even some protein. You’ll need to add gumbo filé, an herbal powder made with ground sassafras leaves. The seasoning is a traditional mixture created by the Choctaw Indigenous peoples of the Southern U.S.
