Hello Ben,
DD>> has a subtly different flavour. I use celery in many things as a

DD>> agent ... like my chilli. It adds a vegetable thickener without

BC> That's interesting, i had not thought of celery as a thickener.
Peppers are better. Vinegar, for thin sauces.
BC> I am familiar with using okra for that, like in a gumbo.
We use fil� and okra. But never at the same time.
And sometimes neither. All depends on the type of gumbo.
For Life,
Lee
