When okra is doing its thing, you need to get it every day. I don't know of anything that can be done to improve overmature okra. Just chuck it in the compost and start over with the fresh stuff.
We do the breaded okra. Never knew about pickled okra, though. Perhaps someone could share a recipe?
A recipe we developed in our family:
Take some ripe tomatoes, put in a pan and saute them (with butter, oil or whathaveyou, or just let them make their own juice). Once the tomatoes have simmered and made a goodly amount of juice in the pan, put in some cut up peppers (I prefer a jalapeno or two), salt, pepper, whatever other seasonings you like and the okra. (Oh yeah, the okra needs to be sliced up before hand. We toss the tip and the stem end.) Simmer a bit more until the okra is just getting tender....don't stir it while doing this. Turn the heat off and serve over scrambled eggs for breakfast or as a side dish for dinner or supper.
Yeah, okra is definitely a southern thing. You've got to know how to cook it, but if you do there's just not much that can beat it in the summertime.
