Both Menudo and Gumbo are staple winter foods of the south. A lot of young chefs learn to cut their teeth on preparing gumbo in their Cajun grandmother’s kitchen. Burning a roux is all part of the process, and is just another form of improvisation if you think about it. This tune is inspired by both of these filling soups with Latin flavor, and some spooky voodoo grooves. Your group will have a blast learning and performing this chart and learning more about food cultures of the world while playing music!
