Default Re: platano hawaiano

Plantano Hawaiino or Hua Moa are one of my favorites and the first banana plant I purchased from Going Bananas (when Bill Lessard owned the grove;based on his wife's recommendation). These truly are excellent bananas with many uses. Boiled green, the "best" tostones, pan fried ripe or eaten out of hand when fully ripe.

They are probably bland and starchy because they were picked way green.
