How to Peel a Mango with a Drinking Glass

Mangoes are delicious to eat but who wants to wrestle with that giant pit and tough skin? Peeling a mango can not only be messy, but highly time consuming if you want to get as much flesh as possible. Skip the sticky mess and opt for a better way to peel your mango.

Steps

1. Choose the ripe fresh mangoes.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   


2. Cut mango in half. This will probably be the most effort you’ll need to exert during this exercise.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   • If you have trouble getting through the tough pit, cut mango into thirds.
   
   
   
   


3. Hold the mango half in your palm.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   


4. In the other hand, grab the glass and slide the glass rim underneath skin, between the mango skin and flesh.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   


5. Push the glass through the mango, running the glass rim along the skin in order to remove as much mango flesh as possible.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   


6. Cut mango into slices or just eat whole.
