I don't always eat gumbo, but when I do, I prefer no okra.

Yes to Okra
Here is Lanier's Okra recipe of the day
Buy frozen cut okra. Not the breaded kind
Heat oven to 350
Put tin foil on flat pan and spread out Okra
Drizzle a little with olive oil
put a little salt free season on if you like
cook at 350 for about 30 mins till crisp
Take out and eat all you want
Very good and very good for you. It comes out like fried Okra without the fried and breading
Your welcome

I love okra. Okra and tomatoes is one of my favorite side dishes.
Pickled Okra > anything else for bloody mary's

I always plant okra so I usually smother down (with onions) about 20-30lbs of it a year. I like it as a side dish with rice & gravy & I will also put some in my gumbo (seafood &/or hen & sausage) on occasion. I also make what some people call okra gumbo without roux-never understood why people call it "gumbo" if it doesn't have roux, to me it is more of an okra soup. I use a gallon of smothered okra (I freeze my okra in gal or quart bags), some tasso, & a little (about 1/4-1/2 small can) of tomato sauce. Start browning the tasso, add a lil tomato sauce at a time so it browns with the tasso, add your okra & some stock, let simmer for about an hour. During lent I'll skip the tasso & add some shrimp & seafood stock; wjen it's just about done, drop some eggs to poach in the juice.

Yes, for flavor, but I leave them whole and pick them out. I don't like eating okra unless its fried.

Awesome post.
Will have to try that come spring.
Also, it's not gumbo if there isn't a roux. Period.
