The Gumbo Throwdown at the Vineyard Farmer's Market today, was fun (albeit loud). For me, the easy winner was Trelio. Lovely color and flavor, real depth and I'm looking forward to trying some of your wine as well (since we talked about it today) Dusty Buns certainly gets Best Presentation, but I wish the sample had more pop in the mouth. Spiciest had to be the Culinary Academy with their late entry, kudos for a solid showing. Cracked Pepper had a round mouth feel, almost like a beef gravy rather than a spicey cajun edge. Max's reminded me instantly of a thick chicken soup that was enriched with Old Bay and cajun seasonings.
To my fellow bloggers, my alter ego had to catch a flight, so I got there early and left in a hurry, unexpected business. Another time. Goodbye Fresno, time to catch that plane.
