Okra
Like many vegetables, Okra does not grow underground, and it has some surprising culinary applications. You can enjoy it in a curry or pickle it for a tangy twist. The most intriguing aspect of Okra, not commonly known, is its growth under a flower.
This versatile vegetable, related to cotton and cacao plants, stands out as the latter is not typically consumed directly from the plant. Almost every part of the okra plant, including the flower, is edible. You can process the flower into oil or use it as a coffee alternative, showcasing the plant’s diverse uses.
