What It Is
Banana leaves are large, flexible, and water-resistant leaves harvested from the banana plant. Though not edible, they serve a vital role in food preparation, packaging, and traditional cuisine. Their natural aroma, eco-friendliness, and durability make them a preferred choice in many cultures for cooking, wrapping, and serving food.
