Our Honest Product review
- The Health Powerhouse: This product is renowned in Ayurvedic and traditional medicine as a natural diuretic and detoxifier, highly effective for aiding digestion and preventing/treating kidney stones.
- Unique Texture: It offers a desirable crisp, crunchy, and juicy texture in curries and salads that is unlike any other vegetable, though proper preparation is required to manage the fibrous strings.
- Preparation Difficulty: The major drawback for a customer is the labor-intensive cleaning process (peeling the tough outer layers, removing the stringy fibers, and immediately soaking the pith) required before it is ready to cook.
- Sustainable Resource: As a waste product of banana fruit harvesting, its use as a vegetable, health supplement, and fiber source is a fantastic example of a highly sustainable and circular economy ingredient.
