Pickled Mango

Must Try

Is your mouth watering yet?  Just the thought of pickled mango makes my mouth water.  It reminds me of the days going to the crackseed center or the countless summer days making up various concoctions of shoyu mango. 

Some like it sweet, some like it sour.  Pickled mango gave you the best of all worlds… sweet, sour, tangy, salty… For an added treat, we used to add li hing mui and drink the juice all day long. For those of you who don’t know, li hing mui is a preserved plum that is usually sweet, salty and sour. It goes perfectly with pickled mango. 

The Mexicans have something similar called saliditos which are usually preserved with salt and chili’. If any of you have green mangoes, send some to California!!

    • Mahalo nui loa for your kind words! We love hearing that this recipe took you back to your childhood in Pahoa—there’s something so special about those flavors that remind us of home, especially during mango season! So stoked to hear da buggah is ono for you. Keep enjoying and sharing those memories with us!
