I know I can google for 10000 recipes but often these are just copied
around indefinitely with no indication their value. *I am hoping for

Supplementary question. *If you fail to cut them when young, this can
be a matter of one or two days more on the bush, the larger pods get
rather fibrous and full of seeds. *Is there any common use for these
(other than compost) that avoids the rough texture?

Make spicey pickles with them, they're especially good with bloody
marys.
