In certain areas of Thailand, most notably the southern regions, Banana Leaf features high on the list of staple ingredients used in the preparation of local dishes. One distinct difference between Banana Leaves and other ingredients, is that the Banana Leaf is most often used as a wrapping or container for the completed item of food. For example, they may be used to wrap fish before it is barbequed or to hold rice which is being steamed or baked. Using Banana Leaf in this way also adds a flavour and aroma to the food during the cooking stage.
Banana Leaves need to be kept fresh, so that they remain supple and can be made into wraps easily, the best way to store them is in an air tight plastic bag within a refrigerator.
