How To Keep Bananas From Turning Brown – 10 Genius Hacks

1) Wrap The Stems

Wrap the stems in plastic wrap. The main way in which bananas ripen is by releasing gasses from the stems. So if you cover up the stems, you’re able to slow down the ripening process.

2) Store Away From Other Fruit

Keep your bananas separate from all other fruits including other ripe bananas. Fruits let off ethylene gas when they are ripening, so keeping ripe fruit with unripe fruit will cause the unripe fruit to ripen more quickly.

3) Store In A Colder Room

Unwrap your bananas from plastic bags and place them in the coldest part of a room (not the fridge). Heat from a bag or from a heated room causes bananas to ripen much more quickly.

4) Buy Green Bananas

Buy green bananas. If you want your bananas to last longer, buy them greener in the first place.

If your banana is perfectly ripe, you can store it in the fridge. The skin will go black but the inside of the banana will stay fresh for up to two weeks.

*Note: Don’t put your banana in the fridge if it’s not yet ripe as it will not turn ripe in the fridge.

10) Place In The Freezer

If you have ripe bananas and want to save them, either put them in the freezer with their skins still on. This is great for when you want to add frozen bananas to smoothies.
