Gumbo File

Size: 0.75- 1.5 oz

Gumbo file is a fragrant, powdery spice made from dried sassafras leaves, with a distinctive earthy, slightly spicy taste and a hint of citrus. It is often used in Southern and Creole cooking, particularly in gumbo, where it acts as both a thickening agent and a flavor enhancer, adding complexity to the dish.
