Storage Method for Mangoes

Unripe Mangoes:
-
Room Temperature: Store unripe mangoes at room temperature to allow them to ripen. Place them on a counter or in a fruit bowl, away from direct sunlight. It typically takes a few days for mangoes to ripen.
-
Paper Bag: To speed up the ripening process, place the mangoes in a paper bag with a ripe banana or apple. These fruits release ethylene gas, which helps mangoes ripen faster.

Ripe Mangoes:
-
Refrigerator: Once mangoes are ripe, store them in the refrigerator to extend their shelf life. Ripe mangoes can be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days.
-
Ventilation: Place the mangoes in a perforated plastic bag or a container with ventilation to maintain their freshness.

Cut Mangoes:
-
Airtight Container: Store cut mango pieces in an airtight container.
