"To identify a ripe mango, give it a light squeeze; it should be slightly firm but yield under mild pressure. If too mushy, it’s overripe."
"Color is not a reliable indicator of ripeness in mangoes, as different varieties exhibit different shades when ripe. Scent can also help determine ripeness."
Mangoes are delicious fruits that can disappoint when unripe or overripe. To identify a ripe mango, light squeezing is recommended, as it should yield slightly without being mushy. If extremely firm, it is unripe; if overly soft, it is overripe. Color is not a reliable ripeness indicator due to the variety of mangoes. Instead, a pleasant fruity aroma signifies ripeness. Some varieties remain green when ripe, while others display different colors as they mature.
