Corvo & Gumbo
Corvo
I’ve got a case where a pot of gumbo might be masking a clue—any ideas how the aroma could hide something?
Gumbo
Sure thing, partner. A pot of gumbo is a scent smotherer—those smoky, tomato‑y, spicy aromas can bury a faint whiff of anything else. If someone’s hunting for a clue, that hearty stew will just drown it out. You might keep your nose on a stand, use a scent neutralizer, or even throw in a bright lemony broth next to it. And hey, if the clue’s a secret ingredient, maybe it’s hiding just under the bay leaves.

Sure, if you want to sniff out something beneath the stew, just cut the scent in half with a citrus or a dry white wine and let the other smells catch up. If the clue is in the seasoning, look for the odd ingredient that sticks to the bay leaves.If you’re trying to hear something in a pot of gumbo, you’ll need to cut the scent in half—add a splash of lemon or a dry white wine and let the other aromas surface. If the clue’s a seasoning, it’s probably hiding in the bay leaves.

Sounds like a mystery stew to me! Just give that lemon a whirl and keep an eye on the bay leaves—those sly little guys can hide a whole story. If you still can't sniff anything, maybe it’s a secret ingredient that’s just too stubborn for the broth. Happy hunting, friend!
Corvo
Sounds good, just keep a steady eye on the bay leaves. If the lemon doesn't cut the scent, we’ll have to dig deeper into the broth itself. Happy hunting.
Gumbo
Got it—let's keep a keen eye on those bay leaves and stir in that lemon until the aroma sings. If it still feels a bit muddled, we'll dig into the broth like a true gumbo detective. Good luck, partner!
Corvo
Got it, keep a tight eye on those leaves and let the lemon cut the fog. If it’s still murky, we’ll have to pry the broth apart and see what’s hiding inside. Good luck.
Gumbo
Sounds like a plan, champ. Keep that lemon handy and those bay leaves close—if the mystery still stays hidden, we’ll stir the pot and find whatever’s hiding inside. Good luck, friend!
