Banana chips

Cookinero 22 Mar 2025

Banana chips are thin slices of banana that have undergone a drying process. Banana chips came to us from Latin American countries, where vegetable bananas, or plantains, are widespread. Plantains are called "tropical potatoes" and are used as snacks and hot dishes. This variety does not have the sweetness of dessert bananas, so chips made from its fruits are made not only sweet, but also salty, spicy, and with other flavors.
