Fried plantains are the best (plátano frito)

Since moving to Puerto Rico I've fallen in love with plantains!

Sweet or fried / salted?

I appreciate both

Salty!

Mofongo! OMFG I love mofongo.

i don’t even know it is edible 😂😅

Apply low heat. Do not use seed oils. Butter is great for cooking plantains. Enjoy.

Recently found out about tallow from Bitcoiners. How would that do for plantains?

Tallow is great. Rendering tallow is an experience.

Have you tried to sear steak with ghee? I kinda like it.

You have piqued my curiosity.

Try it lol. I don’t know if you will like the smell but I like it. It comes in different forms. They usually looks like half melted butter, a little mushy looks like apple sauce. Some are a little thicker and closer to solid. Tibetan, Indian and Mongolian use it with their food and tea.

Gonna look into this now.

I cook a plantain in the microwave every day.

1. Take a green plantain. Not too fresh but not too yellow or black.

2. Use a knife to put a slit right down the middle. End to end.

3. Chop of each end which is inedible

4. Chop into four sections.

5. Cook in the microwave for about 3 minutes.

After it cools a little bit. Peel off the skin. The rest of the plantain can be eaten like a potato. It should taste a little like a potato.

Plantains eaten in this way have a lot of "resistant starch" which are more like fiber in other vegetables. If you cook a plantain which is more rip, soft and squishy, it will be very sweet and filled with sugar instead of "resistant starch".

Enjoy! 🍌

Perhaps I should rename my account to "Plantain Signal."

You got this

Luck! What style? I know them all

good luck my friend. 🤙🏼

I'm addicted to tostones...

You can bake them in the oven too 😎

What’s the plan?

Good luck!
