How to store bananas properly: 3 tips for long-lasting freshness
Do your bananas spoil very quickly? SSPDaily has told you about several unconventional ways to successfully store them and prevent their premature ripening.
Newspaper
Wrap each stem in newspaper to prevent rapid overripening. The paper regulates the release of ethylene gas, a natural ripening agent, which slows down the over-ripening process. It also helps reduce the risk of one overripe banana spoiling the rest.
Bagging
Place each banana in a separate plastic sandwich bag. They act as a barrier, slowing down the ripening process. This technique is especially handy if you only consume one or two bananas a day.
Hanging
Using a hanger equipped with clamps or pegs, you can hang the bananas by their stems in a cool and dark place, such as a cupboard or pantry. This ensures sufficient air circulation to prevent them from ripening too quickly.
