But did you know that bananas are one of the best sources of potassium? It's an essential mineral for maintaining normal blood pressure and heart function. They're also low in fat, as well as a good source of vitamins B6 & C. Bananas are picked and shipped green. Contrary to nature's norm. They develop better flavor when they're ripened off the bunch. To hasten ripening, enclose them in a paper bag. Ripe bananas can be refrigerated for several days. The peel will darken, but the flesh will be fine. And peeled bananas can be frozen for about two months.
Once again I will be traveling in the name of culinary research, this time to an island just off the mainland of the US. But it's not on either the Atlantic or Pacific coast!
