Never tried it in my life until two years ago. I got seeds as an extra pack (a gift). Was so surprised with the beauty of the flowers along with germination percentage. Never tried it in cooking or never bought from store. First one I grew I ate row. I read somewhere that youngsters are not as slimy and great eaten raw. Taste like early picked nuts. Has some milky under taste. So I tried. Never dip fried okra. Did add it to my fried veggies. Still prefer raw eaten right from the plant. It is delicious.
