Emerald Okra Seed - 2 g ~35 Seeds - Heirloom, Open Pollinated, Non-GMO, Farm & Vegetable Gardening Seeds

If I remember correctly this was a Cajun cook's dream. My granny hailed from the great state of Louisiana and many a time I remember smelling fried okra wafting from the kitchen during a fish fry. You can easily fill a gumbo pot with the abundant pods from Emerald okra. This okra is an early variety that you CAN actually let grow out past 3\ to about 8\". At this size it will still be tender enough for gumbos or soups. I'm not sure how convinced I am that it would be tasty for fried okra at that size but many say it is. Try it and see for yourself.
Granny always picked 3-4\" okra to cut up be dipped in corn meal and fried to perfection in the cast iron skillet I now have. Boy if that skillet could talk. I know its been passed down at least three generations. Nothing like fresh out of your garden okra fried up in a cast iron skillet. Man I'm hungry now!
