Fresh green plantain in a pack of 3. Green plantain is the starchy, unripe stage of the plantain — savoury rather than sweet, with a firm texture that's perfect for making tostones (twice-fried green plantain), green plantain fritters, or boiled plantain alongside saltfish. Peel by cutting both ends and running a knife along the ridges of the skin. The 3-pack contains enough for a family meal of tostones, a side dish for breakfast, or a couple of different plantain preparations. A Caribbean and West African kitchen essential.
