Ataulfo Mango Jam


Ataulfo mangoes are only available in the toronto area from late march until september. I don't know what the availability is in other regions. They are 8 to 10 inches long with an oblong round-bottom shape and a gold-blushed yellow skin. The juicy flesh inside is yellowy-orange, creamy smooth, free of fibrous stringiness (which can set off allergies in people sensitive to stone fruits) and is described as the best thing to have fallen out of a tree since the apple observed by isaac newton. The flavour resembles a delectable combination of peach, banana,m pineapple and butter. They're incredibly sweet and loaded with vitamin c and dietary fibre. Look for them in your local chinatown. Watch corey mintz of the toronto star (where i found the recipe) slice and peel a mango here: porkosity.blogspot.com/2008/04/mango-ectomy.html
