How to Pick

When choosing okra, look for small pods that are firm and free from blemishes or dark spots. The smaller pods tend to be more tender and flavorful. 

Additionally, make sure to avoid any okra that feels soft or has a slimy texture, as this indicates that it is no longer fresh. Lastly, choose okra that has a vibrant green color, as this indicates freshness and quality. By following these tips, you can ensure that you are selecting the best okra for your culinary creations.

How to Store

Okra should be stored in a paper bag in the refrigerator to maintain freshness and prevent spoilage. Make sure to remove any excess moisture before storing to prevent mold growth. 

Use within a few days for best quality. Avoid storing okra in plastic bags as it can cause moisture buildup and lead to rotting.
