“ The king of the fruits� , mango fruit is one of the most popular, nutritionally rich fruit with unique flavor, fragrance, taste, and heath promoting qualities making it a common ingredient in new functional foods often called “ super fruits� .
Mango is one of the delicious tropical seasonal fruit and believed to be originated in the sub-Himalayan plains of Indian subcontinent. Botanically, this exotic fruit belongs to the family of Anacardiaceae, a family that also includes numerous species of tropical fruiting trees in the flowering plants such as cashew, pistachio...etc.
The mango originated in Southeast Asia where it has been grown for over 4, 000 years. Over the years mango groves have spread to many parts of the tropical and sub-tropical world, where the climate allows the mango to grow best. Mango trees are evergreens that will grow to 60 feet tall. The mango tree will fruit 4 to 6 years after planting. Mango trees require hot, dry periods to set and produce a good crop. Most of the mangos sold in the United States are imported from Mexico, Haiti, the Caribbean and South America. Today there are over 1, 000 different varieties of mangos throughout the world.
Beyond being delicious and rich in vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants, mangos contain an enzyme with stomach soothing properties similar to papain found in papayas. These comforting enzymes act as a digestive aid and can be held partially responsible for that feeling of contentment we experience during and after our daily mango ritual.
Mango, both in its green and ripe form is a very good tenderizing agent due to these same enzymes, therefore ideal to include in any marinade ( see Mango Marinade under Sauces category in our Recipe Guide) . In India they use a sour mango powder containing ground up green mangos called Amchur, both as a seasoning and tenderizing aid.
Mangos are an excellent source of Vitamins A and C, as well as a good source of Potassium and contain beta carotene.

Mangos are high in fiber, but low in calories ( approx. 110 per average sized mango) , fat ( only 1 gram) and sodium.
Mangos are a good staple for your daily diet.
