Mallika Update

What did I learn for this experience?

I should have trusted my sense of smell and touch. I finally cut the mango this evening because even though there was still quite a lot of green on the skin, the aroma was becoming overpowering. The fruit was very soft. There was no green inside and some of the fruit was almost overripe. Next time I’ll slice when aroma and softness tell me it’s time, regardless of the color of the peel.

As you can probably tell from the photo the fruit was very juicy. The texture and flavor were excellent.
