Very ripe bananas
Description
Very ripe bananas are characterized by an intense, sweet flavor and a creamy, soft texture, with a dark brown skin featuring black spots. The flesh has a deep caramel sweetness and aroma. Nutritionally, they provide potassium, vitamin B6, vitamin C, and fiber, with fully ripe fruits containing more simple sugars and more easily digestible energy, as well as increased antioxidant activity, which promotes quick recovery and supports digestion. In the kitchen, they are perfect for baking bread and cakes, as a base for smoothies, "nice cream" ice creams, pancakes, and sauces, as well as a natural sweetener for desserts and baby food. They should be stored at room temperature until the desired softness is achieved, after which the fruits can be chilled in the refrigerator (the skin will darken, but the flesh will remain tasty) or peeled and frozen in portions for later use.
