Testing Banana Slicers
The title of the video pretty much tells you everything you need to know. I’m going to test two different banana slicers, one where I just push a banana shapped cutter down over the banana and another where I have to insert the banana in the cutter. Which cutter will be victorious? Will I end up injured again? Will I ever buy anything useful from Wish? How many times will Scout walk in front of the camera? Watch to find out the answers to these and many more questions!
Testing a Recipe: Pulled Banana Peel
In this video, I ask the question “Are banana peels edible?” by making pulled banana peel.
Here’s my recipe:
4 banana peels, stems removed, white pith scraped out
2 Tbsp olive oil
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp brown sugar
pinch ground cumin
pinch cayenne pepper
pinch chili powder
pinch paprika
1/4 cup water
3 shakes liquid smoke
1/4 cup barbecue sauce
Shred banana peels with a fork.
Heat olive oil in pan, add banana peels. Stir to coat banana peels with oil. Add spices, stir for a few seconds until spices become fragrant. Add water.
Cook until banana peel begins to soften.
Add liquid smoke. Continue cooking.
Add your favorite barbecue sauce.
Continue cooking until liquid reduces and banana peels are soft.
Serve with vinegar slaw or pineapple salsa.
