How to Enjoy Your Fresh Kesar Mangoes
Kesar mangoes are incredibly versatile:
- Eat Fresh: The best way to experience their pure flavor! Simply slice and enjoy the succulent flesh.
- Mango Lassi: Blend with yogurt, a touch of sugar (if needed), and cardamom for a classic, refreshing Mango Lassi.
- Desserts: Perfect for making mango ice cream, kulfi, mousse, cheesecakes, puddings (like Aamras), or as a topping for other sweets.
- Shakes & Smoothies: Add to milkshakes or smoothies for a tropical burst of flavor.
- Salads: Can be diced and added to fruit salads or even some savory salads for a sweet contrast.
- Gifting: A box of Kesar mangoes makes a luxurious and much-appreciated gift.
Selecting & Storing Kesar Mangoes
- Selection: Look for mangoes that yield slightly to gentle pressure and have a fragrant aroma near the stem. The skin color can vary from green with a red blush to more yellowish-orange as they ripen. Avoid mangoes with bruises, soft spots, or a fermented smell.
- Ripening: If slightly firm, leave them at room temperature for a few days to ripen. You can place them in a paper bag to speed up the process.
- Storage: Once ripe, Kesar mangoes can be stored in the refrigerator for a few days to slow down further ripening. However, they are best enjoyed at room temperature for optimal flavor. Cut mango should be refrigerated and consumed within a day or two.
