Summer without having sweet and juicy mangoes is incomplete. But not storing them in the right way can make them rot soon. Here are six tips to preserve them for a long time.
Store raw mangoes on the counter at room temperature, doing this will let them ripen naturally.
Always avoid keeping the ripe mangoes in direct sunlight. This will make them ripen unevenly.
Ripe mangoes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. The cooler temperature slows down further ripening.
Keep the mangoes away from other fruits and vegetables, as they release ethylene gas and accelerate spoilage.
Leave the stem on the mango while storing. It will act as a barrier and prevent quick spoilage.
Cut the ripe mangoes into chunks, keep them on a baking sheet and freeze them for a few hours. Then transfer them to a freezer bag for up to 6 months.
