Okra, scientifically known as Abelmoschus esculentus, is a flowering plant valued for its distinctive green pods and culinary versatility. This vegetable is a staple in many cuisines worldwide, celebrated for its unique texture, mild flavor, and numerous health benefits.
It is an essential crop in many countries due to its high nutritional value. Also, people can use many parts of the plant, including the fresh leaves, buds, flowers, pods, stems, and seeds.
Fresh okra pods are green, ridged, and fuzzy, with a peach-like fuzz on the outside. Inside the pod are small, edible seeds. They can range in size from one to eight inches long, but the ideal size for cooking is around four or five inches. When shopping for okra, look for firm, springy pods without mushy, brown, or yellowing spots.
