Plantain Bananas for Foodservice Export and Trade Buyers

Plantain Bananas are a starchy variety of banana commonly used in cooking rather than raw eating. They are larger and firmer than dessert bananas, with a thick peel that turns from green to yellow and then black as they ripen. The flesh is dense and mildly sweet, becoming sweeter and softer as it ripens. Plantains are highly versatile in the kitchen and are ideal for frying, boiling, grilling, baking, and curries. Green plantains are savory and crisp when cooked, while ripe plantains are soft and sweet, perfect for snacks and side dishes. A staple ingredient in many tropical and international cuisines
