GRILLED OKRA WITH SPICED SPRINKLE
When okra's fresh and plump in the summer, it's best barely cooked. With this quick grilling technique, it ends up as crunchy as a cucumber and smoky like barbecue. I sprinkle on the spice right after cooking so the residual heat from the grill takes the edge off the spices without burning them.

Steps:
- For the barbecue spice blend: Mix all the spices together.
- For the grilled okra: Prepare a charcoal grill for direct grilling over hot coals, or heat a gas grill or grill pan to high.
- Toss the okra pods with just enough oil to slick them. Grill them, turning occasionally, until grill marks appear and the okra turns a shade darker, about 5 minutes. Immediately sprinkle with salt and the spice blend to coat. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.
GRILLED OKRA WITH CAJUN RéMOULADE
Okra is a popular item at robatayaki (grill) restaurants in Japan where the pods are pinned together with skewers into rafts. Turning rafts of okra (versus flipping individual pods) is the easiest way to grill them. Besides the charred smoky flavor grilling imparts to all vegetables, it also minimizes okra's slime factor - boiled or stewed okra tends to become mucilaginous. This is useful for thickening gumbo, but it's off-putting to many people who try to eat okra straight. In keeping with okra's Louisianan associations, this formula calls for dusting the okra with Cajun seasoning before grilling and serving it with a rémoulade sauce for dipping or spooning on top.

Steps:
- Set up your grill for direct grilling and heat your grill to high (450 to 600 degrees). Brush or scrape the grill grate clean and oil it with a tightly folded paper towel dipped in vegetable oil and drawn across the bars of the grate with tongs.
- Meanwhile, trim the very ends off the stems of the okra, but do not cut into the pods. Lay 4 to 6 okra pods side by side, alternating the positions of the heads and tails. Pin crosswise near the heads and tails with toothpicks or short metal or bamboo skewers to form rafts. If the bamboo skewers extend far beyond the okra, snip off the long ends of the skewers. Brush the okra rafts on both sides with melted butter and sprinkle with Cajun seasoning.
- Make the rémoulade sauce: Place the mayonnaise in a mixing bowl and whisk in the mustard, horseradish, pickle juice (if using), hot sauce, pimentón, Cajun seasoning and chives. Transfer to 4 small serving bowls.
- Arrange the okra rafts on the grate and grill (covered if you are using a gas grill), basting with any remaining butter and turning with tongs, until well browned on both sides, 2 to 4 minutes per side.
- Transfer the okra to a platter or plates. Have each eater remove and discard the skewers and pick up the grilled okra with their fingers to dip in the rémoulade sauce.

Steps:
- Place yogurt in a small bowl and grate garlic clove with microplane into bowl. Add lemon zest and salt. Stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. If using charcoal grill, place mix of natural charcoal and pecan, apple, or hickory wood onto bottom grate and light. Let flames flare up and die down, about 20 minutes. If using gas grill, heat to medium-high. Wash okra and place on towel to dry. Arrange okra pods side by side on work surface with all tips facing same direction. Holding pods in place with one hand, thread skewer about ½-inch from top of each, leaving at least an inch or two on either side of skewer. Thread a second skewer about ½-inch from bottom of each pod. Repeat with more skewers until all pods are secured. Brush okra "ladders" on both sides with peanut oil; sprinkle evenly with kosher salt and place on hot grill. Grill until pods begin to brown, about 2-3 minutes; flip and grill on other side. Transfer to platter and remove skewers. Squeeze fresh lemon over okra pods, then dust with cumin and chile flakes. To serve as vegetable side, layer yogurt, okra, peanuts, and fresh mint onto plate or platter. To serve as an appetizer, leave yogurt in a bowl and top with peanuts and fresh mint. Place okra around bowl and serve.
