Pickled Okra

Okra is very plentiful now and the canning of it is easy.  A couple of things to be careful of though.  Some people develop an itchy rash when handling okra so it is best to wear gloves when picking okra or handling the raw vegetable.  Also the older pods become fibrous and woody so when pickling choose the smaller younger pods.

Step 1: Ingredients

For every 1.5 lb okra figure
4 cups white vinegar
1 1/3 cup white sugar
1/4 - 1/2 Large sweet Onion thin sliced
fresh dill sprigs

Will also need per pint Jar:
1/4 tsp Dill seed
1/4 tsp celery seed
1/2 tsp mustard seed
1 clove garlic crushed
optional : sliced hot pepper
