You gotta try Jamaican mangos. Had a tree when I was growing up and dude ... No strings, just juicy fruit that was the absolute SWEETEST thing I've ever tasted.

FUN FACT: Jamaican mangoes are descendants of Viet/Thai mangoes, because the first species of mangoes that were planted on the island were from a French ship pillaged by the British Navy.

Yeah, I tried to explain to my friends that the mangoes in Thailand/SEAsia are like the texture of custard, no fiber in the teeth. They didn't believe me until they tried it themselves. That's the kind of mango you'd serve on top of coconut sticky rice and understand that's pretty much all the dessert needs (fried mungbeans for crunch, and pandan for rice flavor are welcome though).

We definitely have fibrous mangos too. We have all of the mangoes. Every variety you’ve heard of and so many more. Big, small, round, long, sour, sweet, crunchy, smooth, we have them all. Some are meant to be eaten sweet while some are meant to be eaten sour. Some you eat small and crunchy along side a savory meal while others you shred and make a salad.

@cug5921 күн бұрын
Some of us are very picky about our mangos. The Thai yellow mango was highly prized by a chef/owner of a small mom-and-pop Thai restaurant that I used to go to in California. Chef would only serve her mango and sticky rice with Thai yellow mango. It didn’t matter how many other mangoes were readily available, the answer was “not the right yellow mango, no mango and sweet rice today.” The experience turned me into a picky mango person too.

May I ask what the name of the restaurant is and what city or area it’s in? I am in SoCal and would love to try out the food. Thank you 😊
@cug5920 күн бұрын
@@jewelsbarbie unfortunately it’s in a tiny little community in near the sierra’s, on Nevada City. It’s been some years, but I think it was called Sopa. I used to live in SoCal, Laguna Niguel area. There aren't many good Thai places. For good Asian food you have to go into LA to the Japanese district of Little Tokyo; Koreatown; and Thai Town. If you want ingredients to give cooking Asian food a try or grab and go Asian food H Mart in Irvine and Mitsuwa in Costa Mesa. I was never a fan of Ranch 99 because I found it overwhelming to navigate the store. But a friend of mine used to shop at Ranch 99 all the time.

Question: Are all mangoes supposed to be fibrous and waxy? I'm the only person in my family not allergic to mangoes, so I've been trying to learn more about them. I enjoy mango flavored things (i.e..mango juice, yogurt, etc.), but the fresh fruit I've had always has the same flavor and texture. They taste very astringent (much like an unripe persimmon), and no matter how soft it is, it's stringy and a bit waxy.

So many factors come into how good a mango is including type but also your own location. I find that most mangoes don’t travel well in terms of how much better they taste when enjoyed close to where they’re grow vs places where they have to ripen en route. These mangoes are special to me because they taste like a good mango eaten in a tropical place.
