Web Chef Review: Royal Command Gumbo File
Royal Command Gumbo File is a serious find up here in my parts. Unable to find gumbo file in our supermarkets here in Niagara, we must either order it online, have friends mail us some, or hope that going over the border to NY state, you may find some.

It’s actually a Jalapeño Pepper Roasting Tray, but it is also versatile enough to handle such things as other small peppers, okra, carrots, even artichokes with longer stems.
