The Search for Utopia/ Mango Dressing.....

Trying to duplicate an amazing taste might prove difficult.. so where do I start.

How do you tell a ripe Mango.

Not by colour.... 

Smell the stem - if should smell fruity.

Feel the mango - it should yield slightly to pressure,

Then it is ripe for the picking and eating...

The first recipe I tried was:
