WHEN DO I USE MY BANANA?

You have some banana's but you have no idea when to use them for what.

I usually buy banana's when they are still bright yellow with some green streaks.

These fresh banana's are great for cooking treats like Banana's Foster or Banana Splits.

When the banana is no longer green, but mostly yellow with some small flecks of brown starting to show up, now is the prime time for eating whole.

When the skin goes from mostly yellow to lots of brown splotches, you now have banana's that are ready for baking into breads or muffins.

Don't worry if the skin turns totally black on the outside. The banana is still good for several days.

You should throw out any banana's that have any kind of mold starting to grow on them in the advanced stages of ripeness.
