Okra is rich in nutrients like fiber and antioxidants but has a bad reputation for having a slimy texture.
Here are some tips for preparing okra that reduce the slime factor:
- Keep the pods whole
- Use acids–lemon juice, tomatoes, vinegar, etc.
- Cook on high heat
- Slice and soak in ice water before using
- Embrace it by throwing it in a stew as a thickening agent!
