Got a tip? Send it to us at manila@coconuts.co.


It’s summer! What better way to celebrate it than by indulging on the fruits of the season?

Our country produces some, if not, the best mangoes in the world. Firm, sweet and juicy, our ripe mangoes definitely deliver when it comes to tasting the tropics. But while they may be a joy to eat, peeling them can get pretty messy.

Not anymore. Here’s a way to get to the meat fast and mess-free.
 

Step 1: Slice off the cheek of the mangoes.
Step 2: Place the edge of the mango cheek, where the skin meets the flesh, against the rim of a glass.

Step 3: Slide the mango down the side of the glass so the peel remains on the outside and the fruit on the inside.
Step 4: Enjoy.
