I called my neighbor yesterday for him to come get the rest of the jalapenos off my plants, as the weather is supposed to turn cold next week and I know that will be the end of the peppers this year. He came, but brought me a bunch (about 2 gallons--whole pods) of okra off his plants, as he "Has it running out his ears".
Now I really like fried okra and sometimes like it in gumbo but my wife hates it.
I have too much for one meal for me, but not enough to drag out the canning stuff and do it right in the pressure cooker.
I'd like to cut it into slices and just freeze it but do I need to blanch it whole first, then slice it?
