Re: Plantain



how ripe was your plantain Tillerina

when I did it for my mom's b-day, it didnt turn out how I wanted it too

the plantain I had wasnt very ripe -the store didnt give me much choice - so they turned out like chips. I know some ppl like the crunchy business but I like them when they are overripe and sweet sweet sweet

It doesn't stick at all and you can really taste the sweetness of the plantain. I even use regular foil paper sometimes too.....same result

Re: Plantain

The plantains were just ripe. If they came out like chips, you probably had the oven too high or you didn't turn them.

I find that leaving them in a scandal bag till I'm ready to use them, makes them ripe much quicker.

You should be able to press the plantain and it responds....that's when you know its just ripe.
