Description:
Plantains are a variety of bananas that are grown specifically for cooking purposes, as opposed to sweet, ready-to-eat dessert bananas. They are larger and starchier than regular bananas and have a firmer texture.
Plantains are a staple food in many tropical countries and are used in many different ways in cooking. They can be boiled, fried, grilled or steamed and served as a side dish, main course or even a snack.
Plantains can have different flavor profiles depending on their ripeness. Unripe plantains are starchier and have a more neutral flavor. They are often used in savory dishes such as purees, stews, or fried as chips. Ripe plantains have a sweeter flavor and can be used in desserts or made into sweet dishes like regular bananas.
Due to their nutritional profile, plantains are rich in fiber, potassium and vitamin C. They are a valuable source of energy and offer a healthy alternative to other starchy vegetables.
