Description
Green Plantains are a staple across African and Caribbean cuisines, loved for their firm texture and mild flavour. They shine in Nigerian Dodo and Puerto Rican Tostones, adding a hearty base to savoury dishes. When fried or boiled, they transform into golden, satisfying bites that pair beautifully with stews and sauces.
Fun fact: Green plantains are simply unripe yellow plantains. As they ripen, their starches turn into natural sugars, which is why they taste savoury when green and sweet when fully yellow.
