Mango FAQ

Flavor, Quality & StorageCan sunlight on a windowsill improve a mango's flavor after purchase?

Direct sun is not needed for mango ripening and can heat the fruit beyond the surrounding room temperature. Use a shaded indoor location with stable conditions instead. If one side becomes unusually soft or discolored, inspect it rather than interpreting the change as faster ripening. A window's bright appearance is less important than the actual temperature experienced by the fruit.
