When is mango season?

Peak season runs from May through September, though you can find mangos at your market all-year round. In the U.S., mangos are grown in both Florida and California. The most common varieties you’ll find at a supermarket are Timmy Atkins, Haden, Keitt and Kent mangos.

Want to cut a mango into perfect chunks without hacking away only to end up with an inedible, stringy mess?? Then you’ll need to start by picking one that’s perfectly ripe.

Focus on feel, not color. Mango varieties come in all different colors, shapes, and sizes so the color is not the best indicator of ripeness. All you have to do is give it a gentle squeeze.

A ripe mango will give slightly, while an unripe mango will be firm to the touch – similar to a peach or avocado.

For more of a sour-tart flavor, look for a firm mango and use within 1-2 days since they get softer and sweeter as they ripen.

You may also notice a fruity aroma from the stem if it’s ripe (go-ahead, give it a sniff and make direct eye contact with anyone judging you… they clearly don’t know how to pick a mango).

Mangos can be one of the more challenging fruits to properly cut. But fear not, follow these simple steps and you’ll have perfect mango chunks in seconds.

How to remove mango peels

There are many ways to release those juicy chunks from the peel. All have their pros and cons, but here are three of my favorite methods.

How to store Ripe mango

• Keep unripe mangos at room temperature.
• DO NOT refrigerate before they are ripe.
• To speed up the ripening process, place unripe mangos in a brown bag and leave on the counter for 2 days.
• Soft, ripe mangos can be refrigerated for up to 5 days.

How to store cut mango

Cut mango can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 5 days or frozen in a freezer-safe bag for up to six months (use for snacking, smoothies, or nice cream!)

What to make with mangos

If you haven’t tried mango salsa, you’re missing out. It pairs perfectly with avocados and makes for a juicy, sweet taco topping.

You can also use mango to marinate fish, pork or chicken. Toss fresh mangos in a green or fruit salad, use frozen chunks in a smoothie or add dried mango to trail mix.
