Fresh Plantains - Green or Ripe Yellow

Fresh Plantains in Your Choice of Ripeness

Choose Green or Ripe

Preparation and Storage

Plantains should be peeled and cooked before eating. Store green plantains at room temperature if you want them to ripen. Refrigerate ripe plantains and use promptly. Peel color and firmness can continue changing during transit and storage.
