things people ask

• How many teaspoons fit in a typical banana?
  A medium banana mashed yields about 110-120 g, which works out to roughly 23-25 teaspoons. A small banana lands near 18 teaspoons, and a large one can give 30 or more. For baby feeding charts that suggest starting with 1-2 teaspoons, a single banana stretches across many meals — freeze the rest in an ice cube tray, two teaspoons per well.
• Is teaspoon-scale banana useful in baking?
  Mostly in test batches and flavor-tuning. A teaspoon of mashed banana stirred into a cookie dough won't change texture but adds a hint of fruit. Pastry chefs scaling a recipe down to one or two servings sometimes call for 1-2 teaspoons banana puree as a binder in mini muffins. For full-size baking, work in tablespoons or cups.
• Does freezing change the per-teaspoon weight?
  Frozen-then-thawed banana releases liquid and turns looser, so a teaspoon of thawed mashed banana still weighs about 4.7 g but carries more free water. If a recipe was written for fresh banana, drain the thawed puree briefly or reduce other liquids by a teaspoon per quarter cup of banana to keep the batter balanced.
