Make Bananas Ripen Faster

Are your bananas a bit green, but you prefer them yellow? Are you trying to make banana bread and you need ripe bananas? Follow these simple steps and you'll have ripe bananas in no time!

Steps

 * 1)  Place your bananas in a paper bag with an unpeeled, uncut apple. The apple will emit Ethylene gas, that once trapped, will help ripen the bananas. Leave the paper bag in a warm, dry area.
 * 2)  Observe the bag each day to check the progress. If the bananas ripened, remove them from the bag. If not, leave them for another day.
 * 3)  Enjoy your tasty, sweet bananas!

Tips

 * You can try these steps with other fruit as well.

Warnings

 * Make sure they're in a dry spot, or else mold will grow on them!
 * Don't forget about your bananas! If you've forgotten about them, and they're all black, you can make a banana smoothie.
