Extend the lifespan of your bananas significantly with this unconventional method, keeping them fresh for up to two years! Here’s how:
Start by gathering your bananas and giving them a gentle scrub with a toothbrush and a touch of baking soda. Trim off the ends, clean them thoroughly, and dry them off. Then, slice them into two-finger-thick pieces without peeling them, and set them aside.
Now, prepare your enchanted glass-jar sanctuary for the bananas. Choose a jar or jars that can hold around 700 milliliters of liquid. Layer the following ingredients in the jar: a bay leaf, two garlic cloves (or two whole cloves), two slices of chili pepper, one teaspoon each of coriander and dill seeds, and a mixture of white, black, green, and pink pepper along with allspice.
Once the spices are in place, add the banana slices (about a dozen should fit in a jar of this size), followed by the chili pepper slices. Finally, sprinkle in the remaining ingredients: a teaspoon of sugar, 1.5 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of 70% vinegar, and enough boiling water to cover everything.
Before sealing the jar, ensure all the ingredients are properly disinfected. Once sealed, store the jar in a cool spot for two years, allowing the bananas to undergo their enchanting transformation.
Banana Preparation: Before placing the bananas in the jar, it’s important to wash them thoroughly to remove any dirt or residue. Scrubbing them gently with a toothbrush and baking soda helps to clean the surface effectively. Trimming off the ends and slicing them into uniform pieces ensures even preservation.
