  1. Wash 3 pint-sized jars and lids in hot, soapy water. Rinse well. Place jars in simmering water until ready to use.
  2. Rinse okra and trim stems to 1/4 inch without cutting into the pods.
  3. In a saucepan, combine vinegar, water, and pickling salt. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve salt.

  5. Pour hot brine over okra, leaving 1/2-inch headspace.
  6. Remove air bubbles by gently tapping jars. Wipe rims clean and adjust lids.
  7. Process jars in boiling water bath for 10 minutes.
  8. Carefully remove jars and let cool. Store in a cool, dark place.
