Guest guest Posted September 5, 2000 Report Share Posted September 5, 2000 * Exported from MasterCook * Okra Preparation Hints Recipe By : Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Vegetables Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- okra pods, fresh with stems an oven or sunlight The okra stems should not be cut off. They should be trimmed to a point, but not so close to the vegetable that the gel will ooze out once cooking begins. Dry the washed pods in the oven for 2 hours on low (or in the bright sun) before beginning the cooking process. The author visited various people and took notes on the meals they served during the years of his training in Israel to become a rabbi. It was a very interesting and informative book and the recipes presented are the americanized versions of the foods his hosts served while staying as close to the originals as possible. This info. came from a book whose title I can't find called something like, " Jewish Sephardic Cooking in the Mediterranean " , by Rabbi ? If I am mistaken about the author of the okra stem trimming and oven drying methods you'll have to forgive me as I can't locate the file. Description: " To keep it from becoming gooey and gunky.
