Re: Foods you love that other people have told you are gross?

I love all of those things. Except fried okra. Fried okra can go to hell.

You mean deep-fried okra? I couldn't speak to that--I've only ever had okra in a stew or braise, usually with chicken.

Okra in my father's house is a huge production: first you wash them and rub them in a towel to get the bristles off; then you pare the little hats and the tips of the pods; then you put them in a colander and sprinkle them with salt and plenty of lemon juice and set them out in the sun for an hour or so. After that, you rinse them again to get rid of the excess of mucilage, and finally you cook them with chicken and onions, garlic, cumin, oregano, a little bit of cinnamon, a bay leaf, and diced tomatoes. Maybe some potatoes too. We don't eat it very often. You have feta cheese on the side, and crusty bread to mop up the sauce, which gets just enough mucilage from the okra to make it almost silky.

That's Dad's Chiote family's way of doing it, and it's the only way I've ever had okra.

Yes, deep fried okra. I only had it once but it was like biting into a battered pile of snot.

Never again.
