Bananas are usually ready to eat when their peel changes from green to yellow and develops a few brown spots. These spots will increase as the banana ripens until it blackens when it's overripe. Overripe bananas are very sweet and delicious in desserts.

When you squeeze a ripe banana, it will have a little give under your hand, but it won't be mushy as overripe bananas are. Ripe bananas easily snap away from the bunch and are simple to peel without any resistance or noise. When you bite into a ripe banana, it doesn't leave a starchy film on your teeth as unripe bananas do.

The best storage option depends on your bananas. If your bananas are not yet ripe, store them at room temperature to speed up the process. If you want to ripen your bananas faster, store them in a paper bag rather than a fruit bowl.

Bananas will continue ripening in the fridge, but they'll ripen much more slowly. When your bananas are almost ready, move them to the fridge until you want to eat them. The peel might look darker after some time in the fridge, but the fruit inside should be fine for around a week.
