For best results, use green plantains that are firm and unripe. The greener, the better! Don't skip the double-frying process! This is key to achieving the perfect crispy texture. If you don't have a tostonera, you can use the bottom of a heavy skillet or two plates to flatten the plantains. Serve tostones immediately for the best texture and flavor. They are delicious with mojo sauce, garlic aioli, or your favorite dipping sauce.
