["To remove the skin form the plantain, cut tips at both ends, cut a slit along the length of the plantain and peel off.", "To facilitate easier handling, some cooks dip plantains in hot water for 5 minutes and then remove the skin.", "Once plantains are peeled, cut into diagonal slices, about 1-inch thick.", "Reserve peels: typically the unbroken skin of the plantain is used for flattening the tostones."]
