Mango is one of the most popular tropical fruits. However, it originally comes from northwestern India and northern Burma and has been known to have been cultivated for approximately five thousand years. Its cultivation spread mainly to the tropical areas of the planet.
The nutritional properties of mango are many, highlighting its richness in vitamin B, folic acid, and vitamin C, although these amounts vary according to its degree of maturity. In fact, the more mature the mango is, the less vitamin C it contains and the more provitamin A it has.
Today we are going to explain how to make two delicious desserts that have this rich fruit as their main ingredient so that you can discover new formulas to eat it.
