Product Detail

Green okra is a torpedo-shaped pod fruit that ranges in length from about 7.5 to 15 centimeters long. Each slender pod has a lime green hue and an exterior with furrowed lengthwise grooves. Its skin has a soft and slightly fuzzy texture due to the tiny white hairs that cover its surface. When cut in half, Green okra reveals a pale green-white flesh that’s split up by a thin fibrous wall. On either side of this wall are numerous round white seeds encased in a translucent, sticky gel that may give the fruit a slightly slimy texture. Green okra has a mild, grassy flavor reminiscent of eggplants and green beans.
