15 Cool and Refreshing Vegetarian Appetizers to Take pleasure in All Summer time Lengthy

Late summer time will not be solely peak tomato season—it is also peak okra season, making it a superb time to deep-fry a batch…or 4. Our Birmingham, Alabama-based colleague Craig Ruff’s recipe produces tender okra encased in a skinny, super-crunchy, grease-free cornmeal crust. To get the most effective outcomes, select smaller okra and fry in batches. This prevents overcrowding and ensures the oil temperature stays persistently scorching, which retains the okra crisp and snappy. No soggy, greasy fries right here!
