Bananas are one type of produce households rarely have to think much about regarding proper storage.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Most people just plop them down on the worktop and forget about them. Once they threaten to turn to mush, many either freeze them or make banana bread.<\/p>\n

However, for those who want to enjoy this fruit fresh before it starts to rot, professional\u00a0chef Peter Sidwell of CookServeEnjoy has shared how bananas need to be stored.<\/p>\n

He noted that as bananas\u00a0love warm, moist and bright conditions to ripen, they should immediately be removed from their plastic wrapping to \u201ckeep your fruit fresher for longer\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The chef recommends storing bananas away from any windows, out of direct sunlight and away from any source of condensation and it\u2019s also \u201cbest to choose a cool spot\u201d.<\/p>\n

A \u201ccool spot\u201d should be at a distance from the oven or any other source of heat.<\/p>\n

Bananas\u00a0will continue to ripen at room temperature so once they\u2019ve reached your ideal level of ripeness they can be popped in the fridge to \u201cslow down the process\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Peter said: \u201cI recommend using a\u00a0banana\u00a0preserving bag if you do want to keep your\u00a0bananas\u00a0in the fridge.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cPolyester bags will help keep your\u00a0bananas\u00a0fresh for up to two weeks – don\u2019t worry if the skin turns brown in the fridge, the taste won\u2019t be affected.\u201d<\/p>\n
