Oh! Is Okra also called “Okra” in Japanese. In Bisaya too?<\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\"\"Steph<\/span><\/div>
\n

That’s right! Okra is a popular vegetable in the Philippines. You might think that okra is a Japanese vegetable, but actually, they say the origin of okra is Africa.<\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

Really! I didn’t know that at all! By the way, I am not familiar with some of the vegetables in the table. Especially Moringa. What is that?<\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\"\"Steph<\/span><\/div>
\n

Moringa is more like a leaf than a vegetable, but it’s often used in soups. It’s a nutritious superfood.<\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

Yeah! I often see the leaves floating in a soup. Moringa powder is available as a supplement at drug stores. It contains dozens of nutrients.<\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n
