So many people think okra is a 3 syllable word - okra eeew - What a true delight it is in soups, gumbos, and my absolute fave, fried! So thanks folks don't eat it, it means more for the rest of us.

We grow okra up here in Wisconsin and love it. Fresh would be better than frozen. Would like more recipes using fresh okra. Thank you
