About Mangoes
There are hundreds of varieties of mango with different looks, textures, and tastes.
Some varieties are sweet and creamy, while others have more of a citrus taste.

Mangoes were first cultivated in Indian over 5000 years ago. India is the biggest exporter of mangoes around the world.
The fibrous central pit of the mango is a pithy stone called an endocarp.
One cup of mango has about 60 mg of vitamin C, which is more than the recommended daily adult intake of 40mg! They are also high in potassium, vitamin A, fiber, and folate.
How to Cut Mangoes
Mangoes have a fibrous inner pit that you'll need to avoid when cutting them open to use in your mango recipes!
Here are some tips on how to cut mangoes:
1. Choose a ripe mango. Ripe mangoes will be slightly soft to the touch and will have a sweet smell. Avoid mangoes that are hard or have brown spots.
2. Stand the mango up and cut down one 'cheek' gliding your knife around the fibrous pit. Do the same with the other side, then cut the remaining flesh away from the pit.
3. Score the flesh of the mango 'cheeks' with a knife, being careful not to cut through the skin. Make sure to score the flesh in both directions, lengthwise and widthwise. It's now ready to eat or use in mango recipes.
