Cooking Skills:The stalk of plantain is longer, the peel is slightly thinner, grayish-yellow, and has no plum spots. The pulp is milky white with a slightly sour taste. It is stout but shorter than a banana. Although plantains can be eaten raw, because the meat has no fragrance and is slightly sour in its sweetness, it is not often eaten raw.

Notes:When the banana is fully ripe on the banana tree, the peel is easy to crack, which is not conducive to handling and storage. Therefore, most of the harvests are more than 7 to 8 minutes ripe, and the pericarp is still in a green state and begins to harvest, so it is usually not a fruit that can be eaten immediately. We are neither suitable for fasting or excessive consumption; nor are we suitable for eating immature plantains. Bananas contain fructose that is easily absorbed by babies. For lactase-deficient babies who are watery and diarrhea, they can be fed as a staple food.

The skin of the banana is green when the banana is immature, yellow when ripe, and black when oxidized. People don't usually eat banana peels when eating bananas, but some studies have shown that banana peels have higher nutritional benefits than banana pulp, including lowering cholesterol, replenishing electrolytes, and intake of dietary fiber. According to expert research, banana peels are rich in tryptophan, which can be converted into serotonin, which helps ease emotions. There are many ways to eat it.
