If you touch the mango and it remains firm, then leave it out for a few days until it’s ready. If you eat a mango that isn’t ripe, it’ll taste hard and bitter, and you don’t want to waste a good mango, especially because they can get expensive.
The chunks you cut should come out, making the mango piece look like a flower. Next, just pull off the mango chunks. If they don’t come off, use a knife to slice them off into a bowl or a spoon to scrape them off.
Add a touch of lemon juice to the mango for zest.
Make a salad with papaya, apples, and cantaloupe. Make a salad from mangos and pineapples. Add a pinch of cinnamon for flavor. Make a salad of mangos, pears, and a few cherries sliced in half. Eat a salad of mangos and oranges with a touch of lime juice.
Create mango salsa just with papaya, avocado, a little bit of lemon juice, and some cilantro. You can put the salsa over chicken, beef, or shrimp, or just use it for potato or plantain chips. Put the cubes of mango in a burrito. Use the mango in Caribbean rice or any other foods with a Caribbean flavor.
Put cubes of mango into yogurt. Put cubes of mango into ice cream. Put the cubes of mango into rice pudding along with some raisins. You can put the cubes on top of these desserts, or stir them in.
Once you’re done slicing, you should have several slices of mango with the skin still on, and a pit that still has some skin on it. Here’s what to do next: If you just want to eat the mango, pick up the slices by the skin and eat them. You can try to eat some of the looser skin around the pit, but don’t eat the skin too close to the pit because it can be stubborn and will get stuck in your teeth worse than corn-on-the-cob. If you want to peel the mango, you can pick up the slices by the skin and gently scoop them out with a spoon. If the pieces aren’t ripe enough for that, use a knife.
