- Choose a green bhindi that doesn't have any black spots on it.
- If you are planning to use all the bhindi for one specific dish, choose vegetables that are of the same size.
- Don't go for either small or large bhindi. Choose medium-size bhindi as they are suitable for most dishes. Even if you want to stuff the bhindi with spices, medium sizes are good for it.
- Avoid buying soggy bhindi as these are old ones.
- Keep bhindi away from water and don't buy bhindi that has been kept in water.
- Before using bhindi for any dish, wash it, wipe it and dry it out.
