About Okra

Okra growing at Wise Farms


At the market...waiting to go home with you!


Pods washed...stems cut off...sliced into bite-size pieces.

Salted and breaded with corn meal mix from House Autry,
a local company in Four Oaks, NC.

Sizzlin' in hot cooking oil...in my fam-favorite iron skillet.
 
 
Ready to eat!

Favorites

If you could have only one pan for cooking what would you choose? My personal favorite is my 10-inch iron skillet. I received mine as a wedding gift, and it is definitely the most used pan in my house. I can cook anything in it! Like women and wine, the older it gets, the better! Here it is sauteeing my yellow squash and onion.
