Celery. At least you can fry okra.

>>11369736
Celery has flavor to it.

Fun fact: they’re also called ladies’ fingers because of the sticky sap inside of them.

>>11369730
Sweet corn is pretty fucking useless. Okra is delicious.

>>11369736
I enjoy it for the smell alone. Plant them in the garden, it smells great. Using the leaves in soap as a herb is underrated.
That said, it's probably one of the most used vegetables. Below onions and tomatoes perhaps, but it's a very important aromatic.

>>11369730
Rhubarb?
I used to eat them as a kid because my granma grew them in her garden, but besides a -not so great- jelly, I've never seen it been used for anything.

>>11369786
>soap

>>11369793
Rhubarb pie is delicous. There is also rhubarb soda.

>>11369736

Rhubarb can be great as a flavoring in other foods.

Is celery the new cilantro or something?

Fuckin bean sprouts (tauge)

Mm mm! I sure do love the taste of a damp gym rag.

Literally every other edible mushroom is a thousand times better. Those are only good if you fry the fuck out of them with butter and garlic, which is like saying "hey this dogshit looks a bit like gold if you cover it in gold".

I have a feeling your dad should have beat you more.

>>11370849
Are you okay

>>11369730
Fried they're good

>>11370849
onions are the only food that fuck me up, but this is literally the most retarded shit i've read.

>>11369730
Roasted and salted okra chips are good as fuck. More importantly, I have this really strong comfy memory of eating an amazing soup/stew in front of a campfire on a cold night that had okra in it. All I remember about it is the okra and how good it was. It was the first time I ever had a soup with mainly vegetables in it, I was probably like 4 or 5. I have always lived in North Carolina, so even at 5 I knew what okra was before I had eaten a vegetable soup lol.

>>11369879
same species but brown
>Tastes Better!

>>11369730
unironically the iceberg lettuce

okra at least thickens stews/curries and is ok in a stir fry.
Iceberg lettuce is a vacuum of flavour and nutrients and is purely there for maladjusted ""grownups"" who cant handle the slightest hint of a vegetable. There so many other better varieties of lettuce and they arent like 99% water.

>>11369736
Celery blended with buttermilk is a godtier beverage.

Sorry bois, only real man may apply here.

>>11369739
Turnips are fucking vile

>>11369730

>>11369821
what kind of gin are you drinking

Sorry, but okra is great in soups and stews.
Chicken, sausage and okra gumbo is wonderful on a cold day in the fall or winter
I grow it every year (okra is stupidly easy to grow and take care of), and we usually stew it down as a side dish with the holy trinity until it's really thick and no longer slimy, then mix it with rice.

>>11369786
Celery leaves are poisonous nibba, fuck outta here with the disinfo

>>11371786
iceberg lettuce is great on sandwiches and burgers, idk what you're smoking

>>11372243
no they're not

>>11372193
I didn't even know they were brassica but yeah fuck turnips and parsnips while we're at it

>>11372243
poisonous to plebs maybe

>>11372246
so is other forms of lettuce.....thats my point

you can switch out iceberg for butterhead/coral/batavia and literally get 3x the nutrients

>>11369736
>>11369730
Okra is jam packed with vitamins and celery is one of the most aromatic veggies
Lurk moar

>>11372258
iceberg has that texture though

>>11372269
yea thats pretty much the only plus iceberg has

but i've found with fresh baby butterheads they get very very close.

The only edible form of cauliflower I've has was pickled in brine. And even then cabbage, carrots and celiac are way superior.

>>11369959
One of the few foods that I just can't stand. Both texture and taste are terrible.
Though I'd allow it to exist, just because other people somehow like it.

>>11373229
but it's traditional

>>11369772
>never had elotes

>>11373177
OP didn't say disgusting, he said worthless. Celery's use in mirepoix makes it extremely useful.

Try a gratin. Cut a head of cauliflower into florets and parboil in salted water while you prepare a quick bechamel with 2-3tbsp of butter, 3tbsp flour, and a cup and a half of milk. Place drained cauliflower in a buttered gratin or casserole dish and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add some shredded cheddar, jack, or even emmentaler or swiss, ladle on your bechamel, and finish with a little fresh parmesan. Bake until bubbly and golden brown.

>>11373628
Yea, because roasting shit with oil and eggs makes it worse, fucking idiot.

>>11369730
Okra is really good if you treat it like yakitori by grilling it and salting it. not what I would've expected, but it's actually pretty dang good.

>>11372251

Okra is great. I like it battered and fried home made, or like this

The CSA i buy from grows the best turnips I've ever had. They're as sweet as a carrot but with a subtle peppery note and no bitterness at all. One day I'm at the farm and she pulls one out of the ground and just starts cutting into it with a paring knife and offers me a slice, and I fell in love and ate the whole thing. Never found a turnip that matched that since, the ones at the store are truly vile and bitter. Just saying that there is such a thing as a fantastic turnip

>>11369831

american detected, it's a staple of middle eastern stews

>>11379715
Its turmeric fucktard

>>11380113
Americans on the southeastern coasts have a healthy appreciation for okra, so while I would say it isn't too common for Americans at large, assuming that because someone doesn't like okra they are american isn't a good assumption.

>>11380113
it's also a staple in american stews like gumbo
it's not used in european cuisine at all

>>11369730
Okra tastes okay once it's cooked but I'm literally less squeamish cleaning fish than I am cutting up vegetables full of what looks and smells like cum. Whoever discovered that okra is edible must have been a colossal faggot

>>11380128
I just assume that Americans in general tend to avoid vegetables in favour of big macs and double downs

i mean, beets are pretty much just russian corn, so i feel like they have their use, though i havnt found it. the others are god-tier in soups especially, and onions havr such a wide range of use that you i think you would have to be retarded to even consider them as useless let alone bad

>>11373257
its practically tasteless and its good for you. i forget if ive tried it, but i wouldnt even doubt that mashed cauliflower in place of mashed potatos is good

Celery, when done well, can be an amazing addition to many dishes.

With that said, I can't stand raw or undercooked celery, and I feel like it needs to be chopped up pretty well. Huge chunks of it can ruin the texture or flavor of dishes, especially when a huge amount of it is used in proportion to what is being made.
