Uses:

Melissa’s Banana Leaves are large with a solid dark green color and clipped edges. They give off a wonderful, subtle sweetness, adding their flavor to the foods that are wrapped in them. Use these leaves to barbecue, boil, bake, or broil a variety of sweet and savory foods. Melissa’s Banana Leaves range from six to eight feet in length and up to two feet in width and are carefully folded and rolled for shipment. Because of their large size, whole banana leaves are commonly used to wrap a whole pig for roasting. In addition, the leaves can be used in many ways for festive decorations. Overlap whole leaves on a table for an eye-catching tropical table covering!

Selection, Storage & Handling:

These prime banana leaves are rich in color, crisp and glossy. After unrolling, wash leaves and trim edges prior to preparation. Boil leaves for two minutes to soften them a bit before cutting into desired sizes.
