    I have never heard of a Peruvian mango. How do they
    excel?


    They are big, they have a wonderful taste, they have been
    grafted with other exotic fruits such as papaya

    hate mango, love papaya. I wonder if I would like
    these mangoes ?

    Thanks Reg for posting that! Those look delicious and I
    think I'll make some for a Sunday Brunch sometime soon.

    You're welcome. I also recomend the book it came from, "Jim
    Sobel's Big Flavors". Aptly named.

    Thanks for the explanation.

    So they are not really a true mango - more a hybrid.
    Sound yummy.

    I can get some really nice mangoes at the market, they are
    Mexican. But I never know what to do with them other than
    give slices to my small parrot, so I appreciate your
    posting this. I will make note of the recipes and we can
    discuss them!

    You could give them to my dog, she loves mango.

    I love fresh mango sliced up with lime juice drizzled on it.

    This is a late in life taste -- I used to have no interest
    in mango at all, I thought they were pretty unpleasant as I
    was used to them only as something lying around squashed in
    our backyard in Miami.

  6. An old post of mine. Btw, after 20 years my SO is now my
    wife!

    My SO makes this:

    Mango/Lime Jamarlade, by Helen Walland

    This gives a delicious jam/marmalade with a real bite! It
    made about 5lb of jam but was a tight fit in my microwave
    which is quite big. You might be better to halve the recipe,
    then you wont have to worry about the jam boiling over in
    the microwave, a really nasty mess to clean - believe me!

    4 large Mangoes peeled and cut into medium sized cubes
    (about 2 lb after cutting) 2 small limes halved and then cut
    into very thin slices 2 lb of granulated sugar enough water
    to cover the limes while stewing

    Microwave the mangoes in a large glass bowl covered with
    cling film, pierced once or twice, for about 10 mins on
    high. Next cover the lime slices with water in a flattish
    container, and microwave until soft, about 30 mins I think
    this may be less, I wasn't watching! Add the lime slices to
    the mango (I mashed the mango with a potato masher to make
    sure all the larger chunks were reduced) then add the sugar.
    Stir until no sugar crystals are visible.

    Microwave uncovered on high if possible for about 15-20
    mins. I check my jam every 5 mins, until setting point is
    reached. I had to cook mine on the point below high as my
    bowl was really too small and it threatened to boil over
    continually.

    NB I always use glass to cook microwave jams because of the
    high boiling point of sugar, which could damage not only
    your plastic utensils but also, and more importantly,
    your jam! The bowl needs to be big enough to cope with
    the boiling jam, so at least twice as big as the mangoes.

    Remember jam, even cooked in a m icrowave, can be very hot!

    There was a thread on it suggesting another version:

    Dave Fawthrop wriote:

    ome time ago Doug Weller gave us a recipe for Mango and Lime
    Marjam which I have just tried, with the usual problems :-)
    so I will post what I did.

    The recipe says 4 large Mangoes peeled, and cut into medium
    sized cubes (about 2 lb after cutting)

    Oops! I ended up with 4lb of cubes after cutting (big
    rethink) There are two sorts of mangos available, one about
    twice the size of the other. Supermarket ones are big about
    1 1/4 lb each, and Asian shop ones are much smaller. As the
    amount of fruit was now too much, microwave was out.

    Also our microwave is very old, and objects to being used
    for a long time, so times are doubtful.

    So this is my version of Mango and Lime Marjam.

    4 large mangos about 1 1/4 lb (500g) weight peeled, stoned
    and cut into small pieces. say 8 small mangoes if you have
    those. 4 small limes halved and then cut into very thin
    slices. 4 lb of granulated sugar enough water to cover the
    limes while stewing, and some for the mangoes, while
    microwaveing.

    Microwave the mangoes pieces in a large glass bowl covered
    with cling film, pierced once or twice, on high, with a 2
    tablespoons of water, till softish, mash with potato masher.
    It would be impossible to do this in a pan, they would burn.
    Cover the lime slices with water, and microwave covered
    until soft. I did mine till the peel could be cut with a
    fork against the side of the bowl. They should have been
    done a bit further.

    At this stage everything looked very dry with no free
    liquid. I bashed on to see what would happen. Put mashed
    mangoes, stewed limes and sugar in a jam pan. Heat slowly
    till sugar has dissolved, then boil and test till OK. I used
    a bottle of Certo, to make it set. Half quantity should be
    microwaveable. Made 8 lb.

    Result a very nice interesting jam, if a bit expensive
    at about 1GBP per lb for materials. Not much bite, but
    then I like my own Seville Orange Marmalade which bites
    like a lion :-X.

  7. I should have added that Helen also makes great mango vanilla jam, also in
    the microwave. Just ordinary jam but with vanilla pods or extract. I don't
    have her recipe handy, but found this one:

    connie g ([email hidden]) Subject: Mango Jam

    This is the only article in this thread View: Original
    Format Newsgroups: alt.cooking-chien Date: 1999/09/12

    Mango Jam 6 cups (1.5 L) semi-ripe or ripe mango slices 2
    cups (500 ml) water 3 cups (750 ml) sugar 1 Tbs (15 ml)
    vanilla extract Combine the mango slices and water in a
    saucepan and boil over moderate heat for 15 minutes, until
    the mangoes are tender. Press this mixture through a sieve,
    or process in and electric blender or food processor until
    smooth. Return to the saucepan and add the sugar and vanilla
    extract. Boil for 30 to 40 minutes, until thick and the
    proper consistency for a jam. Pour into hot sterilized jars
    and seal. Makes about 2 quarts (2 L). Bon appetit from the

    Is this the taperiba? The yellow mombin?

    --Lia

    Yup. We call it Taperiba or Taperibá. It is a very acid
    fruit, even when ripe. I reacall when we were little
    children and my mother used to peel taperibas and rubbed
    them with fine salt. Then she washed them under running
    water and taperibas lost their awful tartness and were
    ready to eat.

    Half ripe sounds about right - green ones tast absolutely
    nothing like mango at all, they tast like green apples to
    me. Half ripe would have a have a bit of a mango taste and
    be firm enough to hold up under canning.

    I'm sitting here eating green Honduran mangoes and these do
    remind me of sour green apples. Slightly sweet and VERY
    sour. Maybe yours taste different but the ones off MY tree
    and the trees that supply the mangoes at the school at which
    I teach are reminiscent of eating sour apples - same taste
    sensation in my opinion. These are small mangoes, about the
    size of a very small Granny Smith apple, not the large
    mangoes commercially available. BTW, unripe, green peaches
    are also a popular snack food here. Again, no real taste
    other than slightly sweet but very sour. We eat them while
    they're green 'cause if we wait for them to ripen, they'll
    all be stolen from our trees.

    You know apples don't grow here in the sub tropic of Hawaii.
    We have lots of mangoes of differing varieties but we do not
    have the necessary cold to grow an apple. So I guess I
    should say , I can't make the comparison.

    Here in Hawaii, we like to eat green mangoes with a little
    shoyu, sugar, vinegar and salt. Must be (lucky us) our
    oriental influences!
