Description
Plantains are the less sweet, starchier equivalent to the banana. Sweet bananas, sometimes called “dessert bananas” are much more popular in the United States and Europe, but plantains are an extremely important staple for people in tropical countries.
Unlike dessert bananas, plantains are cooked before eating. Cooked plantains are a rich source of fiber, vitamins A, C, and B-6, and the minerals magnesium and potassium .Unripe plantain is also a natural source of resistant starch that helps to reduce blood glucose levels, so it is considered an excellent ingredient for food fortification.
