* Note * Fresh Banana Blossom Should Be Large and Dense, and Feel Tightly Packed. * to Clean: First Take Off the Outer Dark Red Bracts and Accompanying Tiny Matchsticks (baby Bananas!) -- These Are Inedible. Continue Until You Reach the Pale Pink/Yellow Inside and It's Becoming Difficult to Peel Apart. Cut Off the Inedible Stem. Cut Blossom Into 1-Inch Slices, Dropping Into Lemon Water to Prevent Browning. Separate the Blossoms (like You Would Leeks). If Possible, Let Them Soak For a Little While, to Remove Any Bitterness. * You Can Use the Same Water For the Eggplant. *. |
