11.01.2022 This week’s hero is the luscious Kensington Pride mango from Northern Territory! A medium-sized yellow to orange fruit tinged with a pink blush, the Kensington Pride mango has a sweet and tangy flavour with a rich, juicy and succulent flesh. The tropical aroma is a good indication but be sure to look for firm ripe fruit that gives slightly to the touch. Store unripe mangoes at room temperature but not in direct sunlight. Once ripened, store them in your fridge crisper for u...p to three days. Nothing beats a cold mango on a hot day. Treat yourself!
