Dried banana costs nearly $30 per kilo where I live. No way.
Instead, I made 438g dried Organic banana for recipes, and banana skin fertiliser slurry for my fruit trees/roses.
From 2.1kg of purchased bananas, pre-treated in my homegrown lime juice before drying, I’ve saved a conservative $25 on both superior products. I know what’s in them. For example, they are sulphur-free, because I dried them.
My calculations include electricity costs and ‘paying myself’ for my time. Never forget those two because they can escalate a cost easily when it comes to home preserving.
These dried bananas ‘could’ last a long time in glass jars in the fridge. Whether they will with us around remains to be seen!
One purchase, two products, no waste.
