Bananas (Lady Finger) - 1kg - Certified Organic

Small, sweet and intensely flavoured, Sugar bananas are a world away from the supermarket Cavendish. These are grown at Conscious Ground in the Byron Bay hinterland, a certified organic agroforest farm where the soil is treated as the foundation of everything. Lady Finger bananas are naturally higher in sugar with a honey-like flavour and a thin, delicate skin. They ripen gently and are best eaten when fully yellow with a few freckles beginning to appear. How to use: Eat fresh, nature did the work. Slice over porridge or granola with a drizzle of honey. Blend into smoothies for natural sweetness without added sugar. Freeze overripe bananas and blend for a one-ingredient ice cream. Bake into banana bread, the smaller size concentrates the flavour beautifully. How to store: Store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight. Do not refrigerate. Cold temperatures damage the flesh and halt the ripening process. To slow ripening, separate individual bananas from the bunch. To speed it up, place in a paper bag with an apple overnight. Grown by May and Richard at Conscious Ground, Myocum NSW.
