Brilio.net - Bananas are a healthy food choice to consume every day. The content of vitamins, minerals, and fiber in bananas provides various health benefits for the body. Based on information from healthline.com, consuming bananas can help stabilize blood sugar levels, improve digestion, lose weight, and maintain heart health.
Banana processing can be done in various ways to avoid boredom. Variations of banana processing can be in the form of cakes, ice cream, and drinks that are appetizing. The problem arises when the banana flesh changes color after being peeled, thus reducing the value of the food's appearance.
According to masterclass.com, the color change in bananas occurs due to a chemical reaction between polyphenol enzymes and oxygen. This reaction results in a change in the color of the banana flesh to brown. Color changes that are left too long can affect the taste of the banana.
However, the changing color of bananas can be prevented. Well, a netizen named Nicke has a trick.
Nicke admitted that she often prepares fruit salads, one of the ingredients of which is bananas. So that the bananas in her salad remain bright yellow and beautiful, she usually uses one ingredient that is smeared on the bananas.
"This banana has been opened, but the color is still good, right?" he said, quoted by BrilioFood from TikTok @tehnickekania on Thursday (11/14).

The method is, after the banana is peeled, cut it into pieces first. Then, put it in a bowl. Now, the key to keeping the banana from turning brown, you can squeeze enough lemon juice to coat the entire surface of the banana pieces.
