Here's a U tube clip of how Ensete ventricosum was originally, and still is used for food. This is the second segment.
The first segment shows a bit about how their houses are made from bamboo, and ensete leaves, and they last 100 years, that segment is entertaining to watch also.

Very informative video, taken in the highlands - high altitude where regular edible bananas don't grow. It's about a seven year process to make this bread - about 5 years to grow the plant and 2 years to ferment the pulp. And they eat it every day!
Great video, watch it if you have time!
