I was going to make some banana bread today. I had a bag of horrific rotten
bananas that I stashed away for this purpose. It was a month old. It was
also gone. Someone threw away my rotten stinkin' food. Looks like I'll have
to start from square one again.

Next time I'll mash up some black bananas, add some sugar in, and ferment
for a few days and make some bread using the mash. My goal is an intense
banana bread - perhaps ridiculously so. Molasses will be involved, of
course.

==================

Oh dear, you will need to have a word with 'someone' <g> I don't often make
banana bread but when I want to, I freeze the bananas. I know nothing about
fermenting the bananas!!
