Mango Puree
Description
This recipe requires just one ripe mango, chopped into chunks and processed in a blender or food processor until smooth. The ripe mango offers a naturally sweet, fruity flavor with a smooth texture that can complement many dishes or beverages. The puree can be used as a topping, ingredient, or base for other recipes.
To ensure the best results, choose mangoes that give slightly to gentle pressure, smell fruity near the stem, and feel similar in ripeness to a peach or avocado. Unripe mangoes will not puree well or taste as sweet.
The puree can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to four days, maintaining its flavor and texture. It can also be frozen for longer storage if needed.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Mango 1 mango, ripe, freshly chopped into chunks (225g)
Instructions
- Add the mango chunks to a blender or food processor. Process until it forms a thick mango puree.
- Use the mango puree immediately, or store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days in a sealed container.
Notes
- Check mango ripeness by gentle squeeze; it should yield slightly similar to a peach or avocado.
- Ripe mangoes have a sweet, fruity aroma near the stem end.
- To ripen mangoes quickly, store at room temperature or in a paper bag with bananas.
- Once ripe, refrigerate to slow further ripening and preserve freshness.
