These Banana Leaves (bai tong in Thai) are FROZEN, not fresh! We suggest receiving them immediately upon delivery and refrigerating until use. Use within a few days of arrival and do not refreeze for best results. Please be sure to see our note about UPS Second Day Air for this highly perishable item.
Banana leaves are used as receptacles for steamed dishes, sweets, snacks, and wrappings for raw foods all over tropical Asia. When steamed they impart a subtle grassy flavor to the dish. As a wrapper for desserts and other foods they are not only visually appealing but are also biodegradable. Discard leaves after cooking (they are not edible).
