Okra [Food/Vendor]

2017 Oct 23
Anyone know where I can find okra, either fresh or frozen? I know I saw it somewhere frozen, but I can't remember where. Thanks!

I bought frozen at Loblaws a few times.

Downtown Sobey's (Metcalfe) almost always has some, definitely Had some on Saturday.

Which I purchased then promptly forgot to add to the turkey chili I had made...

Happy to sell you some now that I think of it...

@treepug, which Loblaws? The Superstore in Westbiro had none.

@Food Buddy was this fresh or frozen? Farm Boy in Westbiro had none either fresh or frozen.

@English Foodie, was yours fresh or frozen?

Thanks for all your suggestions. I was near Produce Depot on Carling today so I stopped in and bought fresh okra there. I also bought file powder at Chilly Chili's at Bayshore.

Produce depot has them consistently fresh. I have seen them in food basic a few times frozen when I was looking for the soup filled steam buns for mom.

Making gumbo FF?

A "faux" gumbo, based on a Cooking Light recipe. Not traditional at all, but it was tasty, nonetheless.

I've seen fresh okra in a number of Indian grocery stores (ottawafoodies.com) ... and almost always at this one ... Vaishali's Super Store

Kowloon Market always carries Okra! (Located @ Somerset & Arthur, 1 block from the chinatown arch) :)

Fresh Okra is available at the South Asian food market in the little mall behind Vaishali's Indian store on Carling. They get fresh supplies every Friday.
