3 tricks to preserve bananas for twice as long

And did you know that the technique of wrapping the top of the bunch with aluminum foil really works? That’s right! Food Republic, a website full of culinary tips, assures that covering the top of the bunch with aluminum foil helps to retain ethylene and, therefore, slows down the browning. Brilliant, right?

3. Keep them in a cool place

Don’t leave bananas in the sun or near the stove! Heat only makes the situation worse and speeds up the ripening. The ideal is to keep them in a cool and airy place, away from direct light. Oh, and avoid putting them in the refrigerator if they are still green, because the cold darkens the skin and makes the fruit a little strange.

Enjoy ripe bananas!
