I absolutely adore mangos.
And, on the island of Cuba, the biggest, sweetest, yellowest mangos I have ever tasted...are now in full season.
OMG! I miss them.
In fact, those mangos may be the only good reason for visiting that hot, humid and often dirty island during late spring.
Anyway, today's Austin-American Statesman has a good article about the history of mangos... with some recipes that I'll never use.
Wow, this is also the first time I have linked for content to the Statesman!http://www.austin360.com/food_drink/content/food_drink/stories/2009/06/0610mango.html
