      I have cognac at home, but I think that'll work nicely as well. This this may be a staple here as well as many of your recipes.

      More spots on the bananas=more sugar in the bananas. It might taste more sweet. This dish does not go well with Lutefisk.

    This is something they do in my home town in Puerto Vallarta México, they are VERY popular too in restaurants, just a great thing to watch because they do it at your table, plus they make a "show" kinda when they are making it, people really get impressed . Awesome chef! Thanks

    When I was in New Orleans with my father and sister, I got to try Bananas Foster at the Palace Cafe. They really went the extra mile with their version, because they used Vanilla Bean ice cream as opposed to regular vanilla.

  • @happyidiottalk
    @happyidiottalk 8 років тому +55

    Totally overcooked my bananas. Then after plating up I remembered that I was supposed to put some cinnamon in the sauce. So I grabbed the jar that looked like cinnamon and added garam masala instead. Luckily I could smell what I had done before I used it and just added some cinnamon directly. Was still really nice.

      I made something like this years ago with homemade japanese green tea ice cream and put 5 spice powder in, can't remember what else, maybe some mango slices and it was fantastic.

    Thanks for sharing Chef John! I used to fix this often but have gotten away from it, I'll have to dig out that banana liquor again and get back at it, this IS such a fantastic desert, I feel sorry for the the ones who haven't had this and are trying to figure out a way of having it without ALL the ingredients...

  • @katherinesmith9985
    @katherinesmith9985 Рік тому +2

    One of my favorite restaurants in a beach town I go to has a variation they call Bananas Macadamia that has macadamia nuts in it and is served over house made coconut ice cream. It's divine!

  • @niznomores7961
    @niznomores7961 2 роки тому

    My banana tree just gave us about 8 bunches (16 per bunch) of the Saba variety. It's very girthy but short. Gonna try this recipe. Ur recipes never disappoint. Thank you for sharing ur expertise with us non expert cooks. My dad was a cook in the navy but I never really appreciated his expertise. He would make banana cream pies everytime a bunch ripened. I loved his made -from-scratch custard.

    @timmi59 3 роки тому +1

    Hey Chef John. I made this tonight. I think it was the 18th recipe of yours I’ve cooked. I don’t like rum so I don’t have any on hand. I used whisky. It’s probably better with rum, but I thought it was fantastic. The cinnamon sparkles are fun too! Rock on. 🤘 🎸 🥁 🎤 🥘

  • @audreystevens4505
    @audreystevens4505 5 років тому +3

    Looks divine! Thanks. I have no money for alcohol, just food stamps. So I'll try using a little vanilla extract in the pan. I'm also addicted to anything "strawberry/banana." So I may try adding strawberries at some point.

    Usually, I don't care much for deserts, but I seem to have gotten into the habit of trying every recipe of our beloved Chef John, also this one turned out great! But I wondered: wouldn't a pinch of salt give an additional zest to the sauce? It seems always to be the right thing to do when caramel of any kind is concerned.
    Thank you for all the great teaching and inspiring!

      You can use other varieties of banana that can be cooked and eaten while underripe. They will have more girth than the ripe ones.

    we also have that kind of dessert here in Philippines but wihout rum. it is called banana con yelo. we use this kind of banana called 'saba' or as far as i know 'cardava banana' in english. it is actually the type of banana for cooking because of it's texture, it's kinda hard. well, just boil it and it will turn into a sweet banana. pretty much the same dish that featured here actually.
