We know that bananas are versatile, accessible, affordable and delicious but
what do we really know about banana's??
Banana:
Grown in the warm, humid tropics, bananas are picked and shipped green; contrary to nature's norm, they are one fruit that develops better flavor when ripened off the bush. Banana bushes mature in about 15 months and produce one 50-pound bunch of bananas apiece. Each bunch includes several "hands" of a dozen or so bananas (fingers). There are hundreds of banana species but the yellow, arched Cavendish (or common) is America's favorite. Choose plump, evenly colored yellow bananas flecked with tiny brown specks (a sign of ripeness). Avoid those with blemishes, which usually indicates bruising. Bananas that are still greenish at the tips and along the ridges will need further ripening at home. To ripen, keep uncovered at room temperature. Once exposed to air, a peeled banana will begin to darken. To avoid discoloration, brush with lemon juice. Information found in: The New Food Lover's Companion

Banana Leaves:
The large, pliable leaves of the banana plant, used in the cooking of Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean and Southeast Asia to wrap food (rice, vegetables, meat or fish) to be baked or steamed. Banana leaves are available in Latin and Asian markets. Choose fresh looking leaves, with no signs of browning. Refrigerate, tightly wrapped in a plastic bag, for up to one week; freeze for up to six months. Rinse the leaves well before using and cut into appropriate-size portions before wrapping food.
