What is it?
这种甜美多汁的热带水果在形状,尺寸,风味和质地上都不同,具体取决于其种植的多样性和区域。在世界各地种植的1,000多种不同的芒果品种的尺寸从6盎司到4磅不等,质地从柔软,果肉到牢固到略带纤维,以及绿色,黄色,橙色和红色的颜色。
芒果are cultivated in temperate climates around the world, including India, China, Southeast Asia, and South America, as well as California and Florida. The most common mangos available in the U.S have a tough, thin skin that starts out green and becomes yellow with red mottling as the fruit ripens. Their fragrant flesh is deep orange and extremely juicy with an exotic, sweet-tart flavor.
绿色芒果是在各种沙拉和蔬菜菜肴中使用的酸,未成熟的水果,以及嫩肉。
Champagne mangoes
这些小巧,甜美的金色芒果是您发现的最甜美的香槟。它们的肉是密集,光滑的,无绳子的,奶油状的,易于从细长的坑中切开。它们的味道像野花蜂蜜一样花香,并带有刺激性的平衡。当他们处于多汁的状态时,在夏天抓住它们。在以香槟芒果的名义销售之前,这些水果被称为Ataulfo Mangos,一个名叫Ataulfo Morales的人。他在1950年代在墨西哥恰帕斯购买的土地上发现了树木小而甜美的芒果。他们很快在该地区受欢迎,一位当地的农艺师确定他们是菲律宾定居者带来的芒果。多年来,它们只是当地的稀薄皮肤,使运输变得困难。但是,随着运输技术的改善,香槟芒果已经传播到美国。他们仍然主要在墨西哥生长。
The skins of Champagne mangos change from light green to golden yellow as the fruit ripens. Ripe fruits will feel soft under gentle pressure; you can speed ripening by placing them in a paper bag at room temperature for a few days. When cut into, a ripe Champagne mango should have golden flesh. If it looks gray or black, it means the fruit was kept too cold in transport and rotted.
Showcase Champagne mangos’ luscious texture in sweet or savory salads, salsas, or ceviches. They also make a refreshing sweet-tart addition to drinks and desserts like sorbets and puddings. Sweet and a little tangy, Champagne mangos pair wonderfully with fish, poultry, and pork. Warm spices like cardamom and clove balance their bright flavor. They’re great with tangy ingredients such as citrus fruits and berries. Rich, creamy avocados also highlight their flavor.
How to choose:
Look for fruit with smooth, unblemished, yellow skin blushed with red. A ripe mango is firm but should yield slightly when pressed.
How to store:
Allow underripe fruit to ripen in a paper bag at room temperature. Ripe mangos can be stored in a plastic bag and held in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
