OKRA - CANNING for FRYING LATER (OAG 2015) 

I'm so grateful we still have his videos to watch❣️

I just recently found this channel, it has so much good information. Thank you so much to this man’s family for keeping the channel up for people to continue to learn the valuable lessons he had to teach.

I love how he put a recipe for a single use on here! I’m a small, backyard gardener and it’s difficult sometimes for me to figure out how to cut the recipes down into single pint or quart recipes

love this man and his mentoring. RIP

I just found your station. I canned 20 pints. I sadly found the video that you passed away. Thank you for leaving your footprint💙

So greatful you still leave up his videos. We still enjoy and use them. O.A.L. is missed. Thank you

Miss him! So much to learn!RIP OAG

Just watched Ms.Wanda Deep South Homestead do this recipe. Much reverence given to this gentleman and his sharing of this canning recipe.

Thanks for leaving all of the OLG receipts for everyone to enjoy.I go back to use them every day. He is missed every day. He was Loved by Everyone. May GOD bring peace to his family.

LOVE AND MISS YOU! PRAYERS THAT YOUR VIDEOS CONTINUE TO BE A TRUE BLESSING TO YOUR FAMILY! THANKFUL THAT YOUR CHANNEL IS STILL HERE FOR ME TO REFRESH MY MEMORY!❤

Sir! Thank you so much for this video. I followed this recipe a few months back using the okra from my garden this summer. Today I open my first jar and cooked okra to go with our New Year meal. When I tell you it was delicious believe that!. I am new at gardening, even newer at canning, but an expert at eating okra. It tasted as if I’d harvested today. I may never freeze okra again! You sir are my hero today. Again thank you for sharing your knowledge of gardening and canning and your wisdom. I am so happy today. I have been a subscriber to your channel for only a short time but I’ve learned so much. I spent a good part of the day viewing your older videos to see what else I can glean from you. Please continue to share with us through these videos. S:a faithful viewer.

I was skeptical about putting okra in liquid and then frying it later. However, the canned okra was much better than the frozen okra! I'm so glad I found you. Thank you for posting.

I fried some that I had canned last Summer. Sooo good! I told my husband, “I owe a debt of gratitude to Old Alabama Gardener, for teaching me how to can and fry okra like this.” And he said, “He knows his stuff. I hope he’s doing well.” 💐

So glad I found this channel! I'm going to try that today! We planted late this year and my okra is just now coming on. Was glad to see him use this method of canning. I've canned bacon grease similar to this. I fill up a jar with bacon grease and place in microwave for 3 minutes, take jar out and wipe rim and put hot lid on and set aside to cool and seal. So far I haven't had any issues with doing it that way. Thanks again for sharing this knowledge! God bless this man's family!

I love this method. Brenda Gantt needs to learn this method... I love your lessons.

Thank you so much. What a wonderful ministry… ♥️🙏

I am definitely going to try this. Great video. Thank you for leaving it up.

Some great tips in this video. I learned a lot. Looking forward to your video on breading and frying it! Couldn't help but notice your Saladmaster cooking pot. We bought our Saladmaster set nearly 40 years ago (when we really couldn't afford it!) and it has been great. We actually toook them up on their lifetime guarantee when one of the skillet handles broke. They sent us a new one, no questions asked. Great cookware!

I canned this about a month ago and fried it up today. It was perfect! Better than frozen or even fresh fried okra. I think the ACV brings out the flavor of the okra. Now I need to find more okra to can and get me through the winter. Thanks so much for sharing your wisdom.

Wanda from Deep South Homestead sent me - new sub for sure! I lived in Texas 40 years ago and learned fried okra is the best veggie crunch so thank you for sharing your knowledge.

great job ol timer, I Will be trying this next time I have fresh okra, thanks for sharing your knowledge with the folk in south georgia

Thank you so much I enjoy watching your video

You are dearly missed OAG. ❤️

I am so thankful for being able to learn how to do this

I'm glad to see this video because up to now I have been preparing my okra by coating in the frying batter and freezing it for frying later. I will try it!

I'm a new gardener and I'm just finding your channel! I'm sooooo excited. You have me hooked after my first visit and I'm subscribed. You absolutely warm my heart! Thank you for sharing your generous wealth of knowledge!

Best okra canning recipe ever ! I use your video every time !!!

I live in south Alabama and never knew you could can okra for frying! I just did 3 pints! I would definitely suggest making more of the liquid. I ran out on jar #2. Thanks so much for this information. I can't wait to try my first batch! ☺

Thanks so much for sharing your video, I always wanted to know how to do this. I will process my okra this year using your knowledge. Gods Blessing always, Karen

Thankyou for these recipes Mr.Charles.This will be a great way to process smaller amounts of okra and squash

I have canned a lot of okra this way following your video. I can't wait to try it. Thanks for the video!!

This tastes so good.

God Bless you for teaching us how to be self-sufficient. Will miss you!

Thank you for the info. I am trying your method today.

Ate a jar today and it was wonderful. Will can more. Thank you again.🇺🇸🙏

I am from Alabama also and have been wanting a recipe for this for a long time, thanks for it.

Thank you so much for this.I did it this year and so much better than frozen.Also appreciate the squash to.

I love fried Okra. Can't wait to try this.

Sure miss you! Brightness my morning watching you on replays.

I tell you I learn so much from your channel,Charles,Thank you

I canned okra by your method a year ago. I opened a jar and fried it the other day and it was so awesome. I hope to can more okra this year exactly the same way. Thanks for sharing.

I just canned 8 pints tonight and had enough left over for probably 2 more pints but I ran out of jars. I can't wait to share these with my family! I've only ever canned tomato juice before, so I was pretty proud to hear those jars "pop" and seal! YAY!!! Thank you!

Thank you for sharing love okra

Thanks for sharing this. I will try this as soon as my okra starts making.

I am going to be canning okra today. We are going to do a video and later add frying the okra. I will open a jar in a week or so. We are adding your video in the card when we get it uploaded. Thank you for this video.

Yes! Just in time for my okra :) Thank you for this video!!!

So glad this was reposted! My freezer is filled to the max and honestly did not know where I was going to put my okra this year. Thank you for sharing!

WoW!! Going to try this for Sure!! Thanks!! Much Love and Blessings

I am definitely going to do this ....been wondering how this was done...thank you !!

This is my first year growing okra and I am so grateful to get your recipe. I love watching your videos- you are REAL and down-to-earth. We live in southern Tennessee and this is our third summer on a farm!

Hi Charles , thank you for sending me the message and showing this vid ☺️👍 great instruction vid as always , my okra did not do well this year mainly my fault of the place I grew cause it does not get enough sun but I will refer back to this vid next summer when I have okra ☺️. Hope you and yours are doing well , take care .

I’m going to try this!

I was wondering about canning okra. I will try this in the summer. Thanks

The ACV is a great way to add the acid you need to not have to pressure can it. I am going to can all my okra this way. Thank you so much for this recipe. I like the way you show all the steps visually in your video.

Just seeing this as I was cutting okra to get. With what I have left I am going to do this! Loving late gardens in Northwest Georgia!

Love this thank you so much!

I'm definitely going to give this a try. Subscribed and now will watch all your videos! I'm live in Bolivar, TN.

Thank you for sharing. Feel stronger. Praying for you.🙏✝️

I am new to your channel & also new to canning and growing vegetables. I have learned so much from you & love your videos.

Just finished canning 4 pints. Thank you again. Take care sir. 🇺🇸🙏

Learned about you from a LDS prepping group AND a rebel canning group, both on Facebook. I'm so excited for your channel! Will be watching so much. There's always something to learn 😍

I don't see my original comment, but I fried up the okra I canned a few weeks ago, maybe a month or so. Oh my gracious. Im super impressed by the way it turned out. I think I prefer this way over fresh. Thanks for sharing Mr Charles.

I tried you recipe and canned about 5 pint jars the very first time, a month later I decided to fry up a jar for a taste test before I canned anymore okra for frying. I watched your video on how to fry up this okra after it was canned. I loved it. I will never freeze okra again. I used your liquid recipe to can my whole okra for boiling. I tried a pint jar and it was delicious. I eat the whole jar, the apple cider vinegar cut down on the slime. I watch your channel everyday now. Thank you so much for sharing all your wisdom and knowledge with us, it is such a generous and precious gift. Thank you all the way from Mississippi.

Looks easy enough for me thanks.

i love your videos i have learned so much from you

Fantastic! Just perfect. Thank you!

This is how I can mine and also squash, so easy and so good

Wow. How did I miss this one? I gotta try this!!

Sorry I did not find your channel and this recipe earlier. My wife and I love fried okra but when the okra starts to come in you get a lot in a very short period of time, more than you have space to freeze, and more than you can give to neighbors. This method of preserving solves that problem. I have just subscribed to your channel. We live in Western Kentucky but are glad to learn something new from an Alabama gardener. Hope you are doing well.

So glad it's still up I actually had a great crop

Thank you for this video!! OkieRob sent us over to watch this video! I see in your playlists that there are quite a few videos that we will be watching!! Thanks for sharing!! ♥️

I can not wait to try this...Thanks a heap...

I needed an idea for canning two gallon zip lock bags of okra. I had no idea it could be canned for frying like you did it. Yours is the first video that came up on the search; I needed to look no further. And that is what I like about your video.

Nice video thanks ❤

Thank you 😊

Best Okra I've ever eaten thank you from the bottom of this yankee's stomach. Next year I will plant 60 plants instead of my standard 20.

Thank you for this canning recipe! It's difficult to even buy ocra in Kentucky! I don't have a garden spot!🙏💓

This is exactly how I can my okra for frying. I think it is an old recipe as a good friend who was my mother's age gave me this recipe. I dehydrate okra and vacuum pack it in Mason jars to use in soups over the winter, but this recipe makes the best frying okra. We love okra.

awesome update thank you for sharing have a blessed day

Sir, this the first thing I've ever canned. We only have 4 plants, and over a week I was able to get enough for a 16 oz. jar. (I just heard the lid pop) Once that Okra hit the vinegar/salt/water mix, the smell was absolutely outstanding! I think I'll freeze fresh until I get enough for a couple jars. You've inspired me to learn how you did the chicken and the vegetables! Thanks so much!

I cant wait to try this recipe of yours. We have just seen your videos. We love watching them and learned so much from you. I am sure you have answered this question before but i didnt hear it. I was wanting to know how long will okra last after canning the okra this way?? Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom.

Mr. Charles, I heard you mention this video on Danny's live feed from the conference so I had to come and watch it right away. Okra is my favorite vegetable but freezing was just awful. I never thought it would be suitable for frying if it were canned so I never tried. (I don't eat it boiled. Eww!) I will definitely be trying your recipe this year! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us. Praying for a safe trip home from the conference for you.

I truly enjoy your videos my wife and I are 60 years old maintaining out of her own garden for many years. We used to can are vegetables this way but we were told you can't do it that way you will get botulism is that possible canning this way. You don't have to ask me to subscribe because I will and hit the notification thank you very much for all your information

Thank you!

😢 miss this guy……

Hi OAG! I'm glad that you commented on Misty Prepper's channel. I quit using a freezer this past summer when mine died. I now can everything that I used to freeze and was not looking forward to not having fried okra except when I picked it. I have wondered how my grammaw canned okra for frying, now I know. I'll be doing this when the okra comes in this summer.

i love this better than fresh okra .thank you for sharring this with us ..

Just learned about your recipe & just in time as I was gifted a bag of okra🌱🙏. New subscriber & look forward to learning from you. Thanks for sharing your knowledge 🙏 May God bless you & yours

Mrs. Wanda, I tried your canning method with some pretty large okra. I let it sit for about a week. Today I picked some very small tender okra and fried up both. Oh My Goodness! The canned okra was much tastier and held the batter better than the fresh! Thank you for this lesson!

I totally appreciate this video..I love okra fried and in soups..does it get slimy this way??..thankyou for all you share with us👍👍👍

Thank you so much ☺

I love canning and fried okra is a favorite, this is how I can mine!

WOW!!! I fried up my first batch of canned okra (your recipe) and it was absolutely delicious. Next year, i will plant more okra. Cant thank you enough sir. Oh, I really enjoyed your show with TFH...

(Currently on my wifes phone) I seen Wanda's video on this and came over here to check your video on it back in the winter. I got my wife to pick me up roughly a pints worth at the store just to try it before ours starts coming off. Just got it canned, we'll try it sometime soon I'm sure. I love fried okra so im pretty excited about this. Ill let you know what we think of it when we try it. Thanks for posting. -Ryan.
