Summary
Mangoes are delicious, but cutting them can be tricky. Follow these simple steps to cut a mango like a pro!
Ingredients
Directions
1. Grab a Ripe Mango
A ripe mango will have vibrant colors like red, yellow, or orange and will yield slightly to gentle pressure, similar to a ripe peach or avocado. If it feels hard, it’s not ready yet.
2. Stand it Up
Place the mango upright on a cutting board, stem side down.
3. Slice the Sides
Cut off the two broad sides of the mango, avoiding the pit in the center.
4. Score the Flesh
With the flesh side up, score the mango into a grid pattern, but don’t cut through the skin.
5. Flip and Scoop
Push the skin side up to invert the mango, making the cubes pop out. Scoop out the mango cubes with a spoon.
