Melis Baby Okra (Çiçek Bamya) - 580ml (19.6 fl oz)

Discover the delicate flavor and tender texture of Melis Baby Okra, premium young okra pods carefully preserved at their most tender stage. These bite-sized gems, known as "Çiçek Bamya" in Turkish cuisine, offer an authentic Mediterranean taste experience in every jar.

Product Highlights: Our baby okra is harvested when the pods are small and supremely tender, then preserved in a light brine that maintains their natural flavor and crisp texture. Each pod is hand-selected for quality, ensuring uniform size and optimal taste in this convenient ready-to-use format.

Culinary Uses:

• Traditional Turkish and Mediterranean stews
• Olive oil dishes (zeytinyağlı bamya)
• Rice pilafs and grain dishes
• Vegetarian and vegan meals
• Side dishes with tomato-based sauces
• Mixed vegetable medleys

Why Choose Baby Okra: Unlike mature okra, baby okra pods are naturally less fibrous and have minimal seeds, making them perfect for those who appreciate okra's unique flavor without the texture concerns. The tender pods absorb flavors beautifully while maintaining their distinctive character.

Preparation Tips: Ready to use straight from the jar - simply drain and rinse if desired. Add to your favorite recipes during the last few minutes of cooking to preserve their tender texture. Perfect for quick weeknight meals or traditional slow-cooked dishes.

Bring authentic Mediterranean flavors to your table with these premium baby okra pods - a true delicacy for discerning cooks.
