KITCHENS TIPS Storage Know-How: Bananas ripen best at room temperature. To quickly ripen bananas or other fruits, place the fruit in a brown paper bag and close the bag tightly. The fruit will give off a gas as it ripens. When contained in the closed bag, the gases will cause the fruit to ripen more quickly.
