I really cant believe folks dont know it is kin to the hibiscus.

If you put a dash of vinegar in okra when you cook it it wont be slimy.
If you put okra in a kettle with a little water and bring to a boil then turn off and remove from the heat it is fantastic.
Don't over cook and let it stay that fresh green color.

If you over cook okra it is fantastic.
I like cold cooked okra out of the fridge with salt and pepper on it.
Boo Boo loves okra.
If it is slimy it is fantastic.
I like okra raw, pan fried with or without breading.
I like it pickled.
I like okra art.
I like okra.

If I was dictator it would be on the flag.
It would be required to grow in every yard.
People would be required to eat okra at least 4 times a week.

I love okra.
