Default Re: FHIA 21 Plantain Rare Find ?

I've read that FHIA-21 is supposed to be good for chips. I have some Haitian customers and they prefer french plantains for "taste". I think they taste a little more starchy. Hua moa is good as tostones, but terrible mashed. They are ok as maduros but not too black. The best maduros I have had actually came from ARH. I dont know what to do with orinoco. It wasnt good as maduros and wasnt great as chips or tostones. But thats my personal taste.
