When are bananas ripe?
Bananas should not ever be eaten when they are still green. This means they are not yet ripe and will taste hard and bitter. By waiting until a banana has at least a few speckles of brown spots, you ensure the most vitamins, taste, and ripeness of the banana.
Freezing Bananas
Believe it or not, frozen bananas can morph into a drink that is like a milkshake or even an ice cream. The easiest way to freeze and then later to use the bananas is to wait until they are ripe, then peel and cut them into about 8-10 chunks and then put them in the freezer in a container.
