Reader Question: Over-Ripe Bananas
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again — I’m not a banana fan. I consider them the Herb Tarlek of fruit — they’re pushy and turn slimy when you aren’t looking. You just know if a banana wore a belt, it would match the shoes.
This opinion disqualified me from answering the next Reader’s Question. Sara Aase, a budget-conscious writing colleague, issued me a Banana Challenge. She writes:
I’m desperate for cooking ideas for too-ripe bananas that are not banana bread or muffins!
Given my anti-banana stance, all I can come up with is, “Compost the suckers!” Got any immediately edible solutions for Sara?
