Uses

The Mango, once a native of India and cultivated in Asia for over four thousand years, is grown around the world, including areas of Mexico, Peru, and Ecuador. Atualfo Mangoes are small, delicately shaped mangoes with a skin that ripens to a golden yellow. The flesh is velvety and smooth, with almost no fibrous texture and a wafer-thin pit. Sometimes they are referred to as champagne mangoes. These organic mango are yellow fleshed and skinned and ten to be a little smaller then most other mango varieties. The flesh is not fiberous, so you won’t get “mango mouth” when you bite into them (which simply means the flesh will not get stick between your teeth).

Ataulfo Mangoes are rich in antioxidants like Vitamins A, C, and E and are useful for aiding in digestion.

Selection, Storage and Handing

Melissa’s Ataulfo Mangoes are hand selected for excellent quality. Choose fruit that are firm, have unblemished skin and a fresh scent. Since mangoes are usually sold firm, leave at room temperature for a few days to soften until yielding to gentle pressure. Refrigerate once ripe for up to a week or more.
