The miraculous way to store bananas without a single worry about fruit flies

 

The first thing to do if you bring a banana home from the supermarket!

That is the act of washing a banana thoroughly under running water.

Through this process, you can remove residual pesticides as well as sticky sugars and foreign substances remaining on the surface of banana peels. As a result, the likelihood of insect entanglement naturally decreases.

After taking a banana water shower, be sure to dry off with a paper towel.

 

 

Now that I think about it, there are often many fruit flies around bananas. The reason is said to be at the banana stem.

The fact that banana stems often contain many fruit fly larvae! So, to store them properly, it's best to wrap the stem tightly with foil or cut it off completely.

One more thing~ Ethylene, which is one of the causes of banana discoloration, also comes out from the banana stem, you know?

 

 

Did you just casually place the banana on the floor when storing it? (Plop)

From now on, it's best to always hang bananas on a banana hook. Minimizing contact with the ground can help delay browning.

You can buy a separate banana hanger, but you can also use a clothes hanger you have at home to hang it.

 

 

How can I eat bananas here a little longer?

After peeling each banana and cutting off the stem, I put them in a cooler bag or similar container.

 

 

Alternatively, if you wrap each banana with the stem cut off in newspaper or paper towels and put them in a zipper bag, you can enjoy them longer and more fresh.

So far, we've learned some tiny but useful tips for storing bananas without insect infestation. It's not as complicated as you thought, right?
