Fabricio Aucapina I would call it a fruit, my friend. It is a starchy food just like potatoes. In Latin America specially in the Caribbean we boil it, we fry it, bake it, etc. Is more like a vegetable than it fruit. But yeah it is common around Latin America and Africa.
@@firefly5435 what do you mean platanos been in puertorican cuisine for years lol if your from the Caribbean Puerto Rico Haiti, Jamaica ext... it comes from the taino natives lol you must be dumb or just a big hater that mofongo is the top platano plate it is famous around the world and its a puertorican dish 😉🇵🇷puerto rico lo hace mejor SORRY
Please stop by a Salvadorean Restaurant name :La Jaragua Restaurant in Los Ángeles CA ............In El Salvador 🇸🇻We eat plantains for Breakfast, is just part of our culture , and our gastronomy ...In mondongo soup , Beef soup and dessert (empanadas de plátano ) or our Salvadorean Canoas made out of plantains, of fried plantains with sour cream black beans and rice ( Casamiento ) delicious 😋 Que viva El Salvador 🇸🇻
We love plantains in the Colombian Caribbean. Patacón, moneditas, maduro, tajada verde y tajada amarilla, patacón relleno, plátano cocido, etc 👌🏽🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴
Plátanos and ice cream actually sounds like a very interesting take 🤔 Pero Like you should do a video of y’all trying it see how well they pair and let the rest of us know lol
I can see it. Bananas Foster is already pretty sweet and people sometimes have it with ice cream. Now make it less of a sugar bomb and it mixes better.
@@ruthk7063 Once again it don't matter where it is from or who created first. It's NOT in the video, so these people are missing out on delicious dishes made out of platanos.
I can’t understand how people live their whole lives without ever having plátanos in every form... HOW?! 🤪 1. Amarillos, like them but not my favorite 2. Tostones, definitely my favorites! 3. Mofongo, the best thing Puerto Rico has given to the culinary world! Ha!
Plátano maduro frito, tostones, mangú, mofongo, pastel en hoja, bolitas de plátano en el sancocho, pedacitos de plátano en el sancocho, pastelón de plátano maduro, plátano maduro al caldero...plátano is just pure goodness.
im from the uk and alot of us are familiar with african style /western Caribbean food. so breakfast we usually have plantain with eggs caliloo and saltfish with scotch bonnet peppers. or my mum will do eggs beans and plantain (which is quite good).
1-platanos maduros 2-tostones(try the tostones with majoketchup 3-mofongo(try it with garlic oil or majoketchup) Saludos desde Puerto Rico 🇵🇷los amo /regards from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷I love them
also for a "healthier option" i would have plantain with egg whites, spinch, half an avocado and spring onions and tomatoes and orange halves on the side..
I'm from colombia and we eat plantains everyday for lunch lol i love them its my favorite thing ever, we even put plaints in pizza, or we eat the tostada de platano and put toppings on top we also have plantain soup, and we make plantain with cheese i mean we have the best plaints green or ripped.
True story my daughter works for a small company for one of a kind purses in Manhattan the owners are Columbine so we’re puerto rican and so a white girl came in one day and one of the purses had a design of a platano on it and she asked my daughter what was a platano? my daughter replied it’s a plantain so the white girl still looked confused and asked her what’s a plantain? My daughter was taken a back and looked at her for a couple of seconds then she said she got a hold of herself and started to school her of what platanos are and what it meant to the Latino and caribbean culture. So my daughter said after she finished explaining the girl looks at my daughter up and down and said whatever didn’t need to hear all that then she left. My daughter said it took all her strength not to curse or punch the shit out of her. But yeah there’s people out there who really don’t know what platanos are and us Latinos just look at them like there from outer space!
See because I'm Jamaican, when she pronounces it as plan-tanes it doesn't sit right with my soul. In Jamaica we say plant-tin or plant-in. Also it can be eaten for breakfast. Some fried plantain, scrambles eggs., sausages and two slices of bread.
Plátanos con crema salvadoreña. Plátanos con queso duro. Plátanos en sopa de res Empanadas de plátano Plátano con gallo pinto o casamiento Plátanos.... 😋
I, Japanese, didn’t even know about the existence of platanos until la primera visita a RD and now I’m craving for them because I can’t find them anywhere 😭😭😭😭
The first ones, the fried plátanos, are also called Maduros or Amarillos in the Caribbean. I'm from PR and in my household we call them Amarillos, but I got friends and know others that call them Maduros ☺️
In The Bahamas we eat fried plantains as a side of basically any dinner dish; we boil them with other veggies (what we call a boil up) and it’s also a great addition to okra soup 😋😋🇧🇸🇧🇸
Plantain and ewa Plantain and egg Plantain and rice and stew Plantain and indomie Plantain fufu and any stew Gizzard and plantain 😩😩❤️ Nigerians you know there are endless possibilities with plantain no matter the shape 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
They need to try pastelon de platano maduro, dulce de platano maduro and pasteles en hoja. We Dominicans have many recipes with plantains and they are all delicious! 🤤🤤
no se si ustedes lo saben pero la gran mayoría de sus seguidores son dominicanos y latinos y mucho no dominan el idioma ingles e visto que todas sus publicaciones en redes y videos son en ingles so... ni siquiera se molestan en ponerle subtitulos, si son latinos o proveniente de padres latinos y sus videos buscan compartir y promover la cultura latina por que no usar nuestro idioma, sus videos van dirigidos a la etnia latina la cual se siente muy orgullosa que haya jovenes como ustedes haciendo este tipo de trabajo, solo es mi humilde opinion espera la tomen en cuenta....
you guys should showcase other lesser known recipes using plantains...like sango de camaron, caldo de bola (ecuadorian) im sure other countries have other ways they use plantanos
Ok... can they just stop calling it plataaaains... it’s pronounced “platin”.... get your shit together people. Plantain is the most delicious and versatile ingredient!
Its really common in el salvador to eat platano we like to eat it with beans and eggs as a breakfast trust me its really good some people might think its a wierd combination but its really not that bad.
There’s people who have really never had plantain???😭😭
Yeah, it's a real tragedy.
Fr
Meee
Dont worry us salvadorian love platano we cook it and eat it with frijoles liquado its so good so yeah im surprise these people never ate platano.
La tragedia, plátanos are the best. Like, they even apear in Camila Cabello's Havana
One can never eat too many plantains 😉
Christina Moscat true that
Amen
Y’all gonna learn today..
🤣 yeap!!
Yeah its sad they have been missing out
Let me guess: Gadiel was the one who decided on this video topic lololol
No, if it was him there should be a mangu over there
"Latano frito" ..."it starts with a P ...drag him!" 😂
Aime I lost it when he said it without the P 💀
I was like " Is that Portuguese? What is he saying?" Then, I realized he was trying to say platano🤦🏾♀️
My Jamaican self will correct this and say "Plan- TIN!"
Pero en mi mente dominicana/panameña dice "plátano!"
*dominicana... stick to english gringo
luisdiegors wtf, how about you stick to keeping your mouth shut
luisdiegors *Gringa!
@@luisdiegors ahahaha Im not even Dominican chill out! Tek tings too damn serious a dat! Cho mi Tiyad a unnu! Flippin mama guevo!
My Trini self said the same thing... PLAN-TIN... Plan-tayn meh ass 😂😂😂
how can they have gone their whole life without plantain
Whaaaattt!?!?! No mangu? Blasphemy!
That's what I said 😡
Nah! Mofongo was the way to go, its 10x better.
SUPA LEXY I never said mofongo shouldn’t be in the lineup. I think that if they’re trying different varieties then mangu should’ve been there to rep.
I've never had mangu. 😮
Che Chelli THATS WHAT I SAID!!
he said " what would u eat plantains with.. Mofongo?" I lost it LAUGHING :'DDDD!!! MOFONGO IS MADE OF PLANTAINSSSSS
Yeah, but he genuinely wants to learn. And imagine - a whole world of good food to discover as an adult.

It was so innocent 😇
I dieddddd. Best part
The African in me broke down & cried at the idea of "a bowl of plantains & icecream😭)
Fried Plantain with beans stew
Same😭😥
Honestly, maduros (sweet plantain) and rum raisin or French vanilla ice cream is sooo good.
Nae T. Now I’m craving that 😩
Why?
Plantains don’t have a lot of fiber. They are high in potassium tho.
Like bananas
They are just less ripe bananas
@@heehee2360 they are not.
In Guatemala 🇬🇹 and all Central Americans ,we also eat plantains like all Caribbean’s
Mike tubehd it’s my favorite breakfast of all time. Platanos con frijoles al lado con cremita! 😜.
Mike tubehd
In South America we eat that too :)
West indians*
And in africa
En Ecuador los llamamos patacones a los tostones, el plátano es esa maravilla que puede ser desayuno almuerzo y merienda
Agreed. Un bolon, chifle, Sango de camarón. All these Ecuador dishes have plantains
@@tiniestlittlekiwi omg sangooooooooooo
@@frizzzx86 that shit is bomb with some lemon juice and hot sauce
En Colombia también, pero yo creo que son los mismos

In Puerto Rico too. I forgot what it's called but it's made with plátano maduro with ground beef inside.

If it is vey common in Ecuador imagine how common it is in the Caribbean specially DR or PR.
@@jeremyrdlamaxima7052 yeah, I can imagine, it's a common fruit around latin America.

My face when he said I would eat this with ice cream 🤢
Greanny Santos nah
Then yall haven't lived
Why would it be bad if the sweet plantain pairs well with other sweet food
Some Puerto Rican’s boil the plantains and eat then together with milk. It’s bomb ❤️

Why are platain marketed as Spanish food when all Caribbean islands, and the continent of Africa also eats platain?
@Arturo Carrillo it's not, but please continue to be misinformed. ☮️
You guys should totally do a "Latinos Try Coquito". Going to pick some up today, it's the ultimate Christmas drink for us Boricuas

1:10 In the Caribbean, fried plantains are a side dish. But in México, they are considered a dessert.
Not in southern mexico, in central mexico they are though
Plantain are the best thing ever. We often eat it as a side also fried but cut in rounds. I love it when its sweet so dessert is inkl in the meal 🥰 🇨🇲
