I don't think you understand how delicious some heirlooms are, lenny.
i don't like tomatoes
i know i'm a lazy bum, but sometimes i do wish i could have a small garden...especially when veggies aren't on sale...my parents have a fairly large garden, and all used to run a small greenhouse operation
gardening is fun as hell
what else do you grow?
since i'm in a townhouse i of course have a tiny backyard, but i could get a nice little garden in it...main problem is there's a huge line of trees right behind it
this year I'm doing tomatoes, sweet peas, eggplant, and green onions.
you need some okra, bruh
I'm trying to steer clear of fried foods, lenny. And if I have okra I'll surely deep fry it.
screw eating healthy bro
man, I love some fried okra
i've never made it at home...do you actually bread it, or just fry it with cornmeal and whatever else my mom does to it?

corn meal is the traditional "breading", yes.

i mean as opposed to it being deep fried
i probably don't know what i'm talking about, but when i eat it out at places it's completely breaded...but at home and various potlucks there's just a slight breading on top

gotcha, yeah my breading would be lighter, because we don't own a deep fryer, so I fry it in oil on the pan. Probably what your mom does. the thicker, more consistent breading is usually a sign of being cooked in a deep fryer.

-If you want to lose the slimy stuff, first sauté the okra in a pan with a lid on it. After a couple minutes, throw in 1-2 Tbsp of water, then put the lid back on for another 1-2 minutes. This will get all the slime off.
-If you're looking for a full breaded fry, rather than just a little, the key is to submerge in a high-temp oil (peanut or veg). You're aiming for 350-400F, so olive oil or blends will smoke before you get your oil hot enough.
have you experimented with an okra ice cream flavor?

No. Scallions have same stalk but no bulb. Green onions, also known as spring onions, have a bulb. I am growing onions, not scallions.

Not a big garden this year, but it's in the ground.....

It’s probably time to start thinking about building a space for a garden in my back yard for next spring. Not too big. Two or three rows for tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant. Fenced off so the dog can’t get to it.
I don’t know where to begin with soil. I have the space to make rows in the ground, but I’m wondering if building planter boxes would be easier to maintain?
