For whole Okra, trim the stem just shy of the pod, cutting into the pod will cause the pod to dry even if frozen. Then bring a pot of water with a dash of salt to a full boil and blanch the okra for about 3 minutes. Next shock the okra in a pot of ice water for a few minutes. Then pat dry with a paper towel, and place into a freezer bag and press as much air out of bag aspossible, seal and freeze.

What is the quickest way to cook the slime out of okra?

The longer one cooks it the thicker the 'slime' will get. This is one reason okra is often used to thicken soups. However, if you pan-fry sliced okra in butter or oil on medium, and constantly stir it, the thick slime will completely dry out. The okra will shrivel somewhat, but there will be NO slime. This is a long process, but well worth it. Don't be alarmed if the okra and/or seeds turns dark or even somewhat green-black. That's gooood eatin'! It will be a little crunchy and provide that breaded and fried okra taste without the deep fry. This method does not work particularly well with frozen okra, which kind of turns to mush. Fresh is best.
