What Is The Best Way To Freeze Okra?
The best way to freeze okra is to first trim off the stems and wash the okra thoroughly. Then, slice the okra into pieces or leave them whole, depending on preference. Blanch the okra in boiling water for 3-4 minutes, then transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Drain the okra well, and place them in a single layer on a baking sheet to freeze for a few hours. Once frozen, transfer them to freezer bags, label them, and store in the freezer for up to 8 months.
