Captain Splendid posted:Apparently these have a texture and taste like vanilla ice cream and I really want to try one You have been lied to. The reports of ice cream flavor are greatly exaggerated. That (oversaturated) photo may actually be of the “right” cultivar, “Blue Java”, but many of the bananas hawked as “ice cream” are from the unrelated Namwah group. I put “right” in scare quotes because most people like Namwah bananas better. “Blue Java” isn’t even a desert banana in its home islands. It’s a cooking banana. Sanford posted:There is some dude on the forums who knows everything about bananas and I’m sure there’s an effort post of theirs that can be linked to whenever this comes up. It starts by them saying those bananas in the picture aren’t that colour and don’t taste of ice cream. Plystemon or something maybe? Hi. I would say that I know less about bananas than most people who “know things about bananas”. It’s a minor hobby for me. It’s just that in the land of the blind, the one‐eyed man is king. I turned this C‐SPAM thread into the banana thread a year ago.

Bananas are made yellow with the same pigments as fallen leaves.

Bananas can be black. They must turn black. That is how we get delicious banana bread and pudding.

If covid ever ends, I can get at least 3 nonstandard bananas at the flea market. There's the red ones: These fat burro bananas  And these little manzanas, named because they taste a bit appley  As previously mentioned I'm looking for a source to get some namwahs in my mouth, but searching is hard when there's a pandemic.

Beachcomber posted:These fat burro bananas These are supposed to be good for cooking, but I dislike them and would rather just cook unripe Cavendish. Something that can be said for them is that the plant is relatively hardy and can be grown in places others cannot, like much of the Southern United States. The cultivar is usually called “Orinoco”. Beachcomber posted:And these little manzanas, named because they taste a bit appley Now these are the real hidden gems. They’re pretty widely available in the U.S. at markets that cater to immigrants and they are delicious when you get a good one. I have also found them at Whole Foods at bizarrely competitive rates and quality. Try some plantains if you see them, too. They’re starchy, not sugary, and more competitors to potatoes than they are to apples. It’s a refreshing break from the more common carbs.

Plaintain chips are the poo poo. Slice them with a mandolin slicer, coat with some olive oil and sea salt, bake until golden brown.

They have to make people think there's a use for black bananas otherwise would think "I could buy bananas, but I only ever get to eat 2-3 before the rest turn black. I should skip it this time." everytime they go to the store. Now they think, "I'll just make banana bread with the rest." But they don't, no one ever makes banana bread.

Does no one just freeze the bananas that go black and then make smoothies out of them later?
