Choose the Right Mangoes

Opt for ripe yet firm mangoes like the Ataulfo or Haden varieties. They have a buttery texture and sweet flavor, ensuring the mango holds its shape in the slaw.

Timing Matters

Prepare the slaw close to serving time to maintain crispness. Combine everything except dressing, herbs, and crunchy elements in advance. Toss with these just before serving.

Uniform Cutting Technique

Slice your mangoes and other vegetables uniformly for even coating of the dressing and consistent texture. A julienne cut is both elegant and functional.
