I clearly remember when my family used to buy a lot of bananas with good intentions, but then they would become too ripe and soft after a few days. Wasting good fruit always felt like a pity. Later, I found a clever way to make bananas last longer, keeping them fresh for up to two years. This finding made a big difference, helping us save money and waste less food at home. Now, I am excited to tell you about this useful method.
The Issue with Spoiled Bananas
Bananas are fruits that keep ripening even after they are picked. This process of ripening is caused by ethylene gas, a natural hormone that the fruit releases. This hormone is necessary for bananas to ripen, but it can also cause them to turn from yellow to black quickly if not handled correctly.
When bananas ripen, their starch turns into sugar, making the fruit softer and sweeter. However, when bananas ripen quickly, they begin to soften, becoming mushy and developing a fermented odor. Bananas can go bad quickly, making them less tasty to eat, so people often throw them away, adding to food waste.
Ways to Make Bananas Last Longer
Luckily, you don’t have to accept having too ripe bananas for a whole week. With an easy technique using plastic wrap, you can make your bananas last longer. Here is a thorough explanation on how to make this work for you:
