TIPS AND TRICKS

Ripen your mangoes with this trick:

• Wrap your green mango in an old newspaper or paper bag, keep them at room temperature or store them in a dark place or kitchen cabinet. Check after a few days.
• Leave them on your countertop table it will naturally ripen as well but longer.
• In India, putting them in your uncooked rice storage will speed up the ripening process.
• And similar to Mexico, putting mangoes together with popcorn kernels can speed up the ripening process.

Trivia: When I was a kid the only fruit I would eat are mangoes together with cook rice and that’s it.
