What exactly is Nashville TN Okra?
TN Okra is a
flowering plant that is in the mallow family and is valued for its edible green
seed pods. The yields of the seed pods contains a usable form of soluble fiber.
When the Okra is cooked, a slimy substance forms. This is minimised by cooking
the pods intact briefly. Cooking with acidic ingredients such as a few drops of
lemon juice, tomatoes, or vinegar may also help. Alternatively, the pods can be
sliced thinly and cooked for a long time so the mucilage dissolves. The
immature pods can also be pickled. The Okra leaves may be cooked similar to
beets or dandelions’ greens too. The Okra seeds can also be roasted and ground
for coffee. Okra is considered as a health food due to it being high in fiber,
vitamin C, folate, antioxidants, calcium and potassium.
