Avant sa pleine maturité, le goût de la banane plantain rappelle celui de la patate douce ou de la courge. Lorsque la pelure noircit, elle est mûre et plus sucrée, mais on doit tout de même la cuire avant de la consommer : cuite au four, grillée ou frite [...] 1, record 1, French, - banane%20plantain%20frite

... banana in general refers to a sweet "dessert" banana, like the Cavendish, which is usually eaten out of hand and in desserts. A "cooking" banana is somewhere between a dessert banana and a plantain, meaning it can be cooked in the same way as a plantain when it is green but will also become sweet enough to be eaten out of hand once ripe. 1, record 2, English, - dessert%20banana
