Our refrigerator is one of the small ones with a tiny freezer that has to be defrosted every few days. Still, I have room for some mangoes.<br /><br />I picked 25 more of them today - 20 are going to friends and I'll keep 5. Some of them are so big they won't fit into the fruit picker basket. Also noticed that quite a few still on the tree are splitting they are so big.Diana Miskellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02546520587903079967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7313968083105494075.post-54932197726089031922012-06-27T19:01:07.427-06:002012-06-27T19:01:07.427-06:00I remember last years bounty, since I REALLY love ...I remember last years bounty, since I REALLY love mangos. One thing I did after a friend gave me a bushel or so from her orchard. It's a little labor intensive, but worthwhile: cube, cube, cube; then freeze all those cubes in (more or less) single layer in quart-size freezer bags. Keep in freezer till needed. Use at will after mango season is, sadly, over. I miss mangos!!!Photolera Claudinhahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15945880057490555695noreply@blogger.com
