Dried Mango

Dried mango is a nutritious and flavorful snack made from ripe mangoes that have been dehydrated, removing the moisture while preserving their natural sweetness and taste. This popular tropical fruit, native to South and Southeast Asia, can be enjoyed in its dried form all year round, providing a taste of the tropics even during the off-season. Consumed on its own or as a tasty addition to cereals, trail mixes, yogurt, or baked goods, dried mango offers a convenient and healthy option for satisfying a sweet tooth. It is high in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals such as vitamins A and C, promoting good digestion, a healthy immune system, and vibrant skin health.

Dried Mango FAQ
Cooking with dried mango, people often overlook the versatility this ingredient brings. Dried mango can be used in both sweet and savory dishes, from salsas to cakes. With its concentrated sweetness and tang, a little can go a long way. Overuse is often where people go wrong, overwhelming the dish's flavors. Soaking dried mango before use can also enhance its taste and texture, bringing it back to a more 'fresh' state. Another little-known hack is that when ground, dried mango can be used as a substitute for sugar in recipes due to its natural sweetness.

Expiration & Storage Tips
When does dried mango expire?
Dried mango, when unopened, can last up to 1 year past the printed date on the package if stored correctly. After being opened, the dried mango will typically remain at best quality for about 1 month. Beyond that, the flavor and texture may start to degrade but it should still be safe to eat if it's free of mold and unpleasant smells. If you freeze the dried mango, it can last up to 2 years.
How do you tell if dried mango is bad?
Dried mangoes that have gone bad may develop dark spots or mold, have an unpleasant smell or have a hard texture. Molds can be of different colors and sometimes may not be visible, so your nose is your best tool here. If it smells different from how it originally did, it's best to err on the side of caution and discard it.
Tips for storing dried mango to extend shelf life
• Store the dried mango in a cool, dry place like a pantry, away from heat and light. • After opening, it's best to squeeze out as much air as possible before resealing the original packaging. If the original packaging isn't resealable, you can transfer the dried mangoes to airtight containers or ziplock bags. • If frozen, let the dried mangoes thaw slowly in the refrigerator to maintain their quality and texture. • Including a food grade desiccant pack in the bag can help absorb any excess moisture and prolong shelf life.
