Mango k\u00f2n, mango fransik, mango t\u00f2t\u00f2t\u2026mango kan\u00e8l, mango muska, mango baptiste, mango blan\u2026.<\/p>\n

If you haven\u2019t guessed it yet, it\u2019s mango season here!!<\/p>\n

The list provided above is of some of the names we assign to the many mango varieties found on our beloved land. Yes, these mangos, and possibly more, for I may have missed some of them, will be available to our Haitian palates in the upcoming weeks.<\/p>\n

A season to look forward to, isn\u2019t it?!<\/p>\n

I know I am definitely excited by the thought of eating as many mango baptiste as I possibly can. These mildly sweet mangos pictured above and their firm flesh have always been my favorites. Throughout my childhood, when dad still worked in La Plaine, he would bring us dozens of these rays of sunshine, as I love to describe the yellowness of this particular mango variety.<\/p>\n

I still remember how he would sit at the family table and take his time to peel the mango \u2013 my clumsy fingers couldn\u2019t master the art of using a knife at the time, well I am still clumsy actually but that\u2019s besides the point here \u2013 and cut super thin slices that he would hand me using the tip of the knife. I was happy that he cut them so thin for it made me feel like I was getting more mango out of it, though looking back, I think he was just trying to keep as much of the fruit to himself as possible, especially since he knew I would stop eating as he got closer to the core.<\/p>\n

Indeed, I never ate the mango to the core, and I still don\u2019t. The clean freak in me couldn\u2019t stand having her hands covered with sweet mango juice. Come to think about it, this is probably the reason why mango baptiste is the mango variety that won me over. Its flesh can easily be cut out in chunks without it squeezing its entire juice out, unlike some of the others listed above.<\/p>\n

Mango baptiste is the most firm of these fruits that I have tried to date. It remains to be proven, however, that it\u2019s the only one of its kind grown locally. I have yet to try all of the ones listed above, but I do plan to.<\/p>\n

This year, I made it my goal to try and sample as many varieties as possible for the sake of this blog and helping you discover each of them. I will do my best to at least share three of them with you on our Instagram<\/a> and Twitter<\/a> accounts. As for the varieties that will be left out, you\u2019ll just have to keep reading till next season \ud83d\ude09
