I love green mangoes (just before they start ripening) peel slice the flesh off the seed and cut it up like a french fry and sprinkled with a coarse salt and hot pepper flakes or ground cayenne.
When we lived in Hawaii I would pick the mangoes and bring them home and my mother would make mango pies. Yum!
We used to have a banana tree on the 'lanai'...
Well, you have eaten your share of delicious mangoes. I like the ripe ones better but will try a green one. They are used in salads I hear.
I grew up in SA and my mom used to make green papaya pie! Yummy!
Ever tried a pawpaw, Red? It has a similar taste to mango or so i am told.
this weekend we are going to plant our veggies. all the usual suspects in 3 5X20 raised beds. looking over the thread i see others who used cement blocks and are planting the “cubbie holes”. i intend to put some marigolds in the cubbies of my garden blocks. note i said “intend”. it remains to be seen whether that actually happens or not. i intended to do that last year and only wound up growing weeds in the darn things.
have a great day, folks!
