Preservation of bananas and plantains;

1. We can keep bananas and plantains fresh in the refrigerator, but we should pay attention to the temperature not too low; If it is too low, they will get frostbite, which will cause bananas and plantains to deteriorate faster. Therefore, it is recommended that you eat it as soon as possible, and the refrigerator can keep it for about 2-3 days.

We can wrap the stems of bananas and plantains with plastic wrap, which can be kept for 3-5 days. Because they will release a gas that can make them mature quickly during the placing process, and most of this gas comes from the fruit stalk. So after wrapping, they can slow down their maturation process. This method can effectively prolong the storage time of bananas and plantains.
