Sir! Thank you so much for this video. I followed this recipe a few months back using the okra from my garden this summer. Today I open my first jar and cooked okra to go with our New Year meal. When I tell you it was delicious believe that!. I am new at gardening, even newer at canning, but an expert at eating okra. It tasted as if I’d harvested today. I may never freeze okra again! You sir are my hero today. Again thank you for sharing your knowledge of gardening and canning and your wisdom. I am so happy today. I have been a subscriber to your channel for only a short time but I’ve learned so much. I spent a good part of the day viewing your older videos to see what else I can glean from you. Please continue to share with us through these videos. S:a faithful viewer.

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

Thank you for this very encouraging comment. The reason I make videos is to help you with gardening and canning the garden produce. I am happy you liked the okra canned this way. I am always interested in the results you have when you do something I have showed you how to do. I appreciate you watching my videos and encourage you to watch my videos on health. One think I know for sure, we can't garden if we aren't healthy. I am 81 years old and still growing a big garden each year. Thanks for subscribing and for watching. OAG

He surely is missed. I get my kids to go look up his stuff all the time. HOW did OAG do it? THey go and then THEY tell me HOW! it's a great family communication!

[@Oldfashionedmawmaw]

So glad I found this channel! I'm going to try that today! We planted late this year and my okra is just now coming on. Was glad to see him use this method of canning. I've canned bacon grease similar to this. I fill up a jar with bacon grease and place in microwave for 3 minutes, take jar out and wipe rim and put hot lid on and set aside to cool and seal. So far I haven't had any issues with doing it that way. Thanks again for sharing this knowledge! God bless this man's family!

[@sqwrrl]

I fried some that I had canned last Summer. Sooo good! I told my husband, “I owe a debt of gratitude to Old Alabama Gardener, for teaching me how to can and fry okra like this.” And he said, “He knows his stuff. I hope he’s doing well.” 💐

[@bigblockperformance3400]

I canned this about a month ago and fried it up today. It was perfect! Better than frozen or even fresh fried okra. I think the ACV brings out the flavor of the okra. Now I need to find more okra to can and get me through the winter. Thanks so much for sharing your wisdom.

I was skeptical about putting okra in liquid and then frying it later. However, the canned okra was much better than the frozen okra! I'm so glad I found you. Thank you for posting.

[@Sistercm]

I tried you recipe and canned about 5 pint jars the very first time, a month later I decided to fry up a jar for a taste test before I canned anymore okra for frying. I watched your video on how to fry up this okra after it was canned. I loved it. I will never freeze okra again. I used your liquid recipe to can my whole okra for boiling. I tried a pint jar and it was delicious. I eat the whole jar, the apple cider vinegar cut down on the slime. I watch your channel everyday now. Thank you so much for sharing all your wisdom and knowledge with us, it is such a generous and precious gift. Thank you all the way from Mississippi.

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

Hello Sistercm and welcome to my channel. One thought on canning whole okra this way: I would cut a slit in the okra pod so the air can get out and the liquid can get inside the pod. Are you a JW? _*I will be a guest on Two family Homestead (Live show) on 18 Sep, at 9pm EST (This coming Monday night), love to see you there*_. kzbin.info/door/1JhWUvQlBEK5N5Kj5yn4EQ Thanks for watching.

If you mean a Jesus Witness, the answer is yes. Thanks for the thought, I will try cutting a slit in the okra the next time I can a batch. I will try and tune in on Monday.

I just canned 8 pints tonight and had enough left over for probably 2 more pints but I ran out of jars. I can't wait to share these with my family! I've only ever canned tomato juice before, so I was pretty proud to hear those jars "pop" and seal! YAY!!! Thank you!

This is exactly how I can my okra for frying. I think it is an old recipe as a good friend who was my mother's age gave me this recipe. I dehydrate okra and vacuum pack it in Mason jars to use in soups over the winter, but this recipe makes the best frying okra. We love okra.

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

Hi Katie, how you doing tonight? I found this recipe somewhere on the internet and you are right, it is good. Have you looked at my video on doing squash the same way? Check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXmvpKOsrt6Hq5I It is still hot here in AL. OAG

My freezer is full of okra now. Do you think I could thaw and then can that okra? Or do you think canning the okra at this point would not work?

[@dreamhawthorne1131]

Sir, this the first thing I've ever canned. We only have 4 plants, and over a week I was able to get enough for a 16 oz. jar. (I just heard the lid pop) Once that Okra hit the vinegar/salt/water mix, the smell was absolutely outstanding! I think I'll freeze fresh until I get enough for a couple jars. You've inspired me to learn how you did the chicken and the vegetables! Thanks so much!

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

We actually toook them up on their lifetime guarantee when one of the skillet handles broke. They sent us a new one, no questions asked. Great cookware!

Sorry I did not find your channel and this recipe earlier. My wife and I love fried okra but when the okra starts to come in you get a lot in a very short period of time, more than you have space to freeze, and more than you can give to neighbors. This method of preserving solves that problem. I have just subscribed to your channel. We live in Western Kentucky but are glad to learn something new from an Alabama gardener. Hope you are doing well.

No, I would not do this way with whole okra. The liquid must get inside to throughly saturate every part of the okra and I don't think it would do it if the okra was whole. I appreciate you watching my videos. Be sure you are subscribed. OAG

Krittika J Hi KJ, us gardeners are always looking to next year aren't we. Thanks for your comment and hope you are doing well!

[@roberthicks4794]

WOW!!! I fried up my first batch of canned okra (your recipe) and it was absolutely delicious. Next year, i will plant more okra. Cant thank you enough sir. Oh, I really enjoyed your show with TFH...

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

Hello Robert, I actually like okra this way better than fresh picked okra. Thank you for watching my videos and for watching the TFH channel. *_Thanks for watching. Be sure you are subscribed so you won't miss future videos I upload_* _OAG_

[@roberthicks4794]

OldAlabamaGardener I love this okra. My okra is slowing down now. Can I cut okra today, save it in the fridge, cut again in a few days so I will have more and then process as you suggest??

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

Robert, yes you can cut okra, put in a zip loc bag, store it in the refrigerator for probably 3 days. And, yes, that is the way to gain enough to make it worthwhile to do a canning process. OAG

[@bevb1960]

Cut and cleaned one case of , will be canning the other case tomorrow

Have used your recipe for squash and okra..wonderful! Thank you so much..Now wondering if tomatoes can be added to the okra? Got one kid that loves that mixture over rice..like a gravy..

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

I don't have any experience with doing that. I can tomatoes separately and then when I am ready to cook, I open a jar of okra and a jar of tomatoes. Thanks for watching. Please subscribe. OAG

[@carolynmoody9460]

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

Good for yo. Please do it right as I show. When canning we always want to be safe.

[@Grizz270]

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

Hello Grizz, you might check out my video on canning summer squash at: kzbin.info/www/bejne/haq7aqWghLp9ndk OAG

My store had pickling salt really on the cheap today so I bought some. Do you know if it is the same measurements as you use for the kosher salt in this video?

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

Hello Penny, yes, pickling salt just means it doesn't have any iodine in it. The same for kosher salt. Measurements are the same. OAG

[@rebeccamcmahan5285]

How long will this keep? Looks so good!!!!! Blessings to You and Your's!!!!

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

Hello Rebecca and welcome to my videos. I have some that has been canned for 4 years and it is still good. As long as the lid stays sealed, it should last years. It is true that after 4 or 5 years it begins to lose a little of its flavor. *_Thanks for subscribing!

[@melindaponds3268]

Can u use it on top of peas if you dont want to fry it?

[@mikehat1949]

Thanks for sharing this. I will try this as soon as my okra starts making.

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

Mike, when you have time watch my video on frying this canned okra at: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4rYpoWlhrBpoMk Thanks for stopping by. OAG

[@markmelton587]

I'm enjoying your videos Mr "Bama! You remind me a lot of my father. He was a Southern Gentleman also, but his speech was much like yours, without any real hard southern accents. He lost his in the military, I assume the same for you? Hope this finds you in good health.

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

Hello MM and thank you for watching my videos. Yes, I went in the Army at age 17 (stayed in for over 20 years) and as you describe, lost any southern accent. I am doing well, turned 79 years old today. OAG

[@jamesbrock3739]

We are using your method and appreciate it. I was wondering does this particular type of canning have a name?

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

I don't know of any name for this. Thank you for watching my videos. If you haven't yet, please subscribe. OAG

[@heathersampson9032]

(Currently on my wifes phone) I seen Wanda's video on this and came over here to check your video on it back in the winter. I got my wife to pick me up roughly a pints worth at the store just to try it before ours starts coming off. Just got it canned, we'll try it sometime soon I'm sure. I love fried okra so im pretty excited about this. Ill let you know what we think of it when we try it. Thanks for posting. -Ryan.

[@thelmahedgecock6173]

After watching and reading this i had to give it a try, tho i didn't really believe it would work......kinda like if it sounds to good to be true...then it probably is! But gave it a try and have now canned a couple of bushels of the stuff and it really does work and tastes great! this is one time the old saying wasn't true! Give it a try folks its great!

[@OldAlabamaGardener]

Hi Thelma and welcome to my channel. I am happy you tried it and I agree it is really good. In fact I like it better as canned okra than I do as fresh okra. *_I will be a guest on Two family Homestead (Live show) on 18 Sep, at 9pm EST, love to see you there._* kzbin.info/door/1JhWUvQlBEK5N5Kj5yn4EQ Thanks for watching.
