Nanica Banana

The banana, originating from Southeast Asia, is a tropical fruit with soft and sweet flesh. In Brazil, the most popular varieties are Nanica, Prata, Banana-da-Terra, and Banana Maçã. When ripe, their skins are yellow or red. Each banana plant produces 5 to 15 bunches at a time. Used in the cuisine of various countries, bananas can be eaten raw, fried, cooked, or baked.

A ripe and large banana (such as the Nanica) weighs about 120 grams. Rich in fiber, potassium, and vitamins C and A, the banana is a seedless fruit composed of approximately 70% water. The Nanica banana, the most consumed in Brazil, is widely used in cakes, sweets, and other Brazilian culinary recipes.
