Okra is a beautiful plant and very easy to grow. Stands straight upright with a really pretty flower! I grow it every year in the northern Northeast!

Okra gets a bad rap but I found an awesome way to prepare it. Pick pods while small (important or inedible), put on a kabob stick, rub with olive oil and kosher salt. Then throw on the grill (hibachi). Pull off and eat - melts in your mouth and no gooey stuff. Tastes like an entirely different vegetable.
