Avoid pods with brown spots or dry end. If you're cooking it quickly, like in a sauté, use okra that's under 4 inches long. If you're stewing it or using it in a gumbo, look for the tougher, larger pods. To safely store your Okra; Refrigerate unwashed, dry okra pods in the vegetable crisper, loosely wrapped in perforated plastic bags. Wet pods will quickly mold and become slimy. Okra will keep for only two or three days. When ridges and tips of pods turn dark, it needs to be used immediately. Comment Like You can also reply to this email to leave a comment.
