Default Re: Banana leaves in cooking

I was watching "Bizarre Foods With Andrew Zimmern " on The Travel Channel and they were showing banana leaves in a mexican market . They also used them with some red snapper and claimed that they added a nutty taste to the fish . Thay also had what appeared to be wax paper ...it was layers of agave leaves . They just peel of the (outer?) layers to get this 'parchment'.
The show will replay tommorow @ 4:00 and they will have other episodes as well . There will be one from the Philipines ,Taiwan , Trinidad and Tobago ,Alaska , and Spain . These start At 2:00 central and the Mexico episode is at 4:00 and again at 8:00 central on The Travel Channel
Bon Appetit !
