I've made this recipe several times and love it, but am puzzled as to why the original recipe in the New Basics cookbook doesn't call for adding the sausage back in. Anduoille sausage is spicy and in addition to the cayenne has resulted in comments from guests that the gumbo is too "hot". Perhaps the browned sausage fat for flavor is all that was originally intended to be in the recipe. Or did the authors/editors not catch that omission?
