When y'all eat gumbo. Do you only add rice? Or is potato salad another staple?

I just have mine served over rice.
I like tobasco sauce on the table with chicken gumbo, and Louisiana sauce with seafood gumbo. I do not mix chicken with seafood.
I make gumbo regularly. Usually I just use cayenne powder, but lately I have experimented with fresh peppers. Green hot peppers (Thai?) from the Indian grocery store added a different flavor which was nice.

As far as spice I definitely put a louisiana-style hot sauce ("Tabasco style") as a condiment. But here in Louisiana many people put a mustard base potato salad along with the rice as a extra starch to the dish
I make a Cajun potato salad with blackening spice.
next time you make gumbo. I recommend you make this potato salad as well. Add about as much as you would add rice to your gumbo. You're welcome.The Hot Pepper said:
I never knew the combo was a thing but I googled it. And I will do as you say.
