Nutella is a popular chocolate spread recipe. The main ingredients in Nutella spread are sugar, cocoa, skim milk powder, and hazelnuts. Whether or not you choose to refrigerate the jar of Nutella once purchased is up to you. On the jar, it says that refrigeration isn't required. However, refrigeration is important as it slows the growth of bacteria. When you refrigerate Nutella, it causes the spread to harden because of the fat in the hazelnuts. So you will have to leave it at room temperature for a bit so that you can spread it. Room temperature allows the spread to have a smooth and spreadable consistency because the monounsaturated oils from the hazelnut are liquid at this state.

Bananas are one of the most popular foods around the world. Bananas rank fourth in the world after rice, wheat, and maize in human consumption. You will find bananas grown in over 130 countries around the world, which is more than any other type of fruit crop. Bananas are native to southeastern Asia but are also widely cultivated in many other tropical regions in the world. Typically bananas are eaten raw when they are properly ripened, but they can also be used in a wide variety of recipes. Plantains are the type of banana variety that comes from a group of cultivars that are firmer and more starchy. Plantains are typically used in cooking rather than eaten raw. You will also find bananas that are dried and then ground into banana flour. Some of the popular banana recipes you will find include banana pudding recipes, banana bread recipes, banana custard, banana pie recipes, fried bananas, banana smoothies, banana ice cream, and banana chips. Frozen bananas are a popular ingredient in fruit smoothies as they are healthy, and they help to thicken up the smoothie. Bananas are an excellent source of vitamin B6 and contain moderate amounts of manganese, vitamin C, and dietary fiber.
