What is the best way to freeze mango?
While mangos can be frozen whole, they take on a slightly different texture when thawed. Because of this, it’s best to first cut the fruit into bite-sized pieces. To do this, you’ll need a knife or vegetable peeler and a corn-on-the-cob holder.

Here’s a step-by-step guide via Aussie Mangoes:
- 1. Wash the mango thoroughly.
2. Hold the mango in one hand and peel the mango with a vegetable peeler. Put the peeler away.
3. Slice off the top and bottom of the mango with a knife.
4. Insert a corn holder into the mango from one end. This will steady the mango while you slice it. The mango can actually stand by itself which is very helpful.
5. Hold the corn holder and slice off the cheeks.
6. Cut the flesh off the pit carefully.
7. Your mango is ready to be sliced or cubed.
