Brilio.net - Bananas can be used as a source of fiber for daily consumption. Apart from eating them, bananas are also delicious when made into juice or smoothies, you know. When blended, bananas can be combined with other fruits such as strawberries, lemons, and others to make them even more delicious.
However, when stored at home, bananas turn black and rot very quickly. Reporting from masterclass.com, bananas contain enzymes that will react by releasing ethylene gas when exposed to oxygen. Well, the process of releasing ethylene gas also causes bananas to ripen quickly.
Many people try to inhibit the process of banana rotting by storing them in the refrigerator. In fact, the cold temperature of the refrigerator can actually make bananas turn black and rot faster than room temperature, you know. This was also explained by YouTube account user Mbok Jar in a video.
"Bananas are also not good to store in the refrigerator because they change the color, taste, and the vitamin C content will be lost," he explained, quoted by BrilioFood from YouTube Mbok Jar on Monday (1/7).

Well, this netizen, familiarly known as Mbok Jar, explains a trick so that bananas stay fresh and don't turn black quickly. After all, to practice this trick, you only need the help of two simple tools.
Before preparing the tools, first make sure the base of the banana is clean and fresh. You can slice the tip of the base with a knife, so that the browned part of the base is gone.
If the browned part of the banana base has been set aside, immediately wrap the base of the banana with duct tape. Yup, duct tape is the first tool to practice this banana storage trick.
