Bananas are a staple in many people's weekly food shops - but they have a short shelf-life - around two to three days if purchased from the shop when they are yellow
Bananas are a common feature in many Brits' weekly grocery haul, but their shelf-life is notoriously short - typically two to three days if bought when yellow.
Many of us store our bananas on the kitchen counter, in a fruit bowl or hanging above one to keep them fresh, reports the Express. However, Kate Hall, food guru and founder of The Full Freezer, suggests that popping them in the fridge can extend their use-by date by up to 10 days once they're ripe.
Professional baker and chef Sarah Bridenstine noted that bananas have their own "quirky storage needs" that should be adhered to. She advised: "To speed up the ripening of green bananas, bag them up. The gases they emit will work their magic. Once they're perfectly cool, keep them cool to slow down over-ripening. Fridge them once they're ripe to halt the blackening.
