Did you know that there are more than 20 varieties of banana in São Tomé and Príncipe? The banana is one of the most important ingredients in the Santomé diet. There are no official statistics on annual per capita consumption, but it is known that there is not a single Santoméen who does not like bananas or can go a week without them. The people of São Tomé simply love a good banana.
The preparation is simple and varies according to creativity - whether boiled, deep-fried or grilled, it is always served with fresh, just-caught fish. The most popular varieties include the “banana pão” and the “banana prata”.
