Did you know that mangoes are grown all year round?
To determine whether a mango is ripe, gently squeeze the skin, ripe mangoes should give slightly. If its very soft, the mango is overripe and the inside will be very stringy.
To cut a mango, place the mango on its side and cut a large slice about 1/2 and inch from the center on either side. Then score the mango by first cutting strips the long way, followed by the short way. You don’t have to cut all the way through the skin on the bottom, you can use a knife or even a spoon to scoop out the chunks of mango.
