Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    Mangoes have a huge, flat seed that clings to the fruit. To remove the flesh from the seed, use a sharp knife to cut the fruit vertically, sliding the knife along the seed on one side. Repeat on the other side, which will give you 2 large pieces. Remove the peel and chop.
