Is it possible to take an overripe brown banana and make it edible again? According to this cooking hack from Brandon Queen it is!
The first step is to fill a freezer ziplock bag with some rice. Put the overly-ripe banana inside the bag and make sure to squeeze out all the extra air in the bag. Let the banana sit in the rice bag for about an hour. Doing this will take the moisture out but the banana will still be brown.
This next step is pretty cool… take a hair dryer – yes, a dryer – and blow warm air (not too hot) on the brown banana and watch it turn back to yellow. How cool is that? Your banana has been restored and is edible once more!
