Making banana chips and flour
Bananas are a staple food in many parts of Eastern Africa. Currently, there is very limited commercial processing of bananas. Most people consume bananas fresh, steamed or boiled. During bumper harvests, farmers sell bananas at give-away prices and many go to waste. A detailed process of making banana chips and flour is explained below in terms of their benefits, ingredients, tools, and the meticulous steps to take. A case study from Tanzania is also provided to highlight the success of this technique.
