Mangoes

Actually, nothing at all to do with market, but a general grumble about my inability to get the stone out of a mango without dragging half the flesh with it.

How do they do it in restaurants? Or is it a variety thing like the strawberries we get these days in the shops that never give up their hulls cleanly?

I remember the days…

Any suggestions, oh knowledgeable reader?

    You cut off both sides of the mango then peel the flesh out of each side. Very easily done when done right.

    Thanks, buuut…

    If I do that the knife gets embedded in that hazy area that\’s not quite stone and not quite flesh, and it gets messy. Or when I peel the flesh back, most of it gets left behind.
