Raw Food Recipe:

Pickled Okra

http://www.terawarner.com/blog/

Ingredients:

• About a pound of small okra
• 1 jalapeno – seeded & quartered lengthwise
• 2 cloves garlic peeled & halved
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
• 1 tablespoon sea salt
• 2 cups filtered water
• 1 – 1 1/2 tablespoons sea salt

Directions:

Wash the okra well and place in a quart-sized mason jar. Combine remaining ingredients and pour over the okra, adding more water if necessary to cover the okra. The top of the liquid should be at least 1 inch below the top of the jar. Cover tightly and keep at room temperature for about 3-5 days before transferring to cold storage. Wait patiently for a few weeks for some yummy fermented okra!

Okra is also good just sliced and added to any salad. It is also quite pretty to slice it lengthwise and sprinkle with sea-salt.
