Scientific name

Musa spp.

Nutrition

The beautiful Raw bananas contain potassium, vitamins A, C, and B6, fiber, and resistant starch, which is a form that passes through the body undigested and slowly, allowing the feeling of fullness to remain for a longer period of time. Resistant starch also keeps the digestive system healthy, as it promotes the growth of probiotic bacteria in the digestive tract.

How to use Raw Banana

Raw bananas are best suited for cooked applications such as baking, boiling, frying, steaming, stir-frying, and mashing. They can be sun-dried, left in their peel and used in curries and stir-fries, cooked in boiling water for a smooth texture, or used to make dips and chips.They are also popularly used in kacche kele ki asharfi, which is Raw banana with capsicum, and in kachori, kebabs, pakore, or poriyals in Southern India. Raw bananas pair well with meats such as fish, chicken, Indian spices such as garam masala, cumin, mustard, and turmeric, bell pepper, ginger, garlic, onion, yams, and potatoes. They will keep for a couple of weeks when stored in a cool and dry place.

Cultivation highlights

As a succulent evergreen, demands a great amount of quality water to increase productivity. Because of the heavy weight of the bunch, the plant becomes unbalanced and the bearing plant may lodge; must be supported with two bamboos creating a triangle and placed against the stems on the leaning side. At OrganicSiri, we grow all our crops in our own farms organically without use of fertilizers or chemicals.

Storage

May be stored for longer if they are kept together in a bunch. Being tropical fruits they do not do well in cold storage. The ideal way to keep them is at room temperature rather than in the refrigerator. They can be stored in an open basket or bowl.

Availability

Can be grown in all seasons, they yield less during summers. We try to make them available throughout the year from a dedicated plot.
