How To Select a Mango

It can be tricky to determine if a mango is ripe. Typically, they will give to slight pressure when ripe, but some mangoes ripen from the pit outwards so it might feel firm but actually be ready to eat. The best way to tell is to smell the fruit. If it has that delicious, intoxicating mango aroma, it’s likely ripe and ready to eat. Unripe mangos will ripen at room temperature in a few days.

Avoid purchasing fruits that have soft spots, are pitted or badly bruised. Mangoes are typically reddish or reddish orange but may also have some yellow or green showing. Mangoes may be ripe even though they are all green or yellow. When preparing a mango smoothie, simply peel the mango and cut around the flat, oblong pit in the center.

Mangoes rank 9 out of 100 for pesticide residue according to research conducted by the Environmental Working Group. If you are trying to control costs of your grocery bills, it is not generally necessary to purchase organic mangos.
