How To Store Okra

Okra should be stored unwashed. You can store it in a paper bag or simply wrap it in a newspaper. If you dont have a paper bag, you can also store it in a perforated plastic bag. Make sure you keep it in the warmest part of your refrigerator. This would help you store it for up to 3 days at least. Okra tends to decay faster when kept really cold. So make sure you store it in warmer temperature in your refrigerator. Simply blanch the whole okra and freeze it if you want to store it longer.
