The bananas you bought turned out to be green and too hard?
No problem! You can make the fruits ripen quite quickly.
In a few hours, the green skin will turn yellow and the tough flesh will become tender.
To do this, simply put one well-known fruit in a bag of bananas.
What to put in a bag of bananas
To ensure bananas ripen quickly, you need to choose the perfect “neighbor” for them.
We are talking about… an apple. Put this sweet and sour fruit in the bag where there is already a bunch of green bananas.
Tie the bag tightly and leave it in a shaded place at room temperature.
In just a few hours the bananas will be ripe and very tasty.
If you use the life hack in the evening, then the fruits will most likely have time to acquire the desired state overnight. In the morning, you will probably be able to enjoy sweet bananas.
How does an apple affect a banana?
Curious gourmets may wonder: “Why does the apple life hack work?”
The answer is simple: the fruit releases ethylene. This compound is what “forces” the banana to ripen quickly.
