The base was coconut milk, so I didn't have to worry about oxidizing fruit. Using pectin would be much better for thickening fruit. Thanks for sharing your research, it is very useful. As always your pictures are beautiful. I love mango, but its too expensive in B.C. to cook with it. The darling and I share an occasional mango for snack. I may have missed Ping's recipe. Her photo is very beautiful.Zsuzsahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07946310320227262079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5491771970539508788.post-26772210450253784992012-07-13T23:00:40.301-05:002012-07-13T23:00:40.301-05:00I have a great weakness for mangoes, Elisabeth!!Bo...I have a great weakness for mangoes, Elisabeth!!Both the recipes are so mouth watering!!Thank you for sharing, XOmia xarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16419471029438386812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5491771970539508788.post-53442089102976681212012-07-13T22:09:54.972-05:002012-07-13T22:09:54.972-05:00One of my favorite dessert. i love mangoes.One of my favorite dessert. i love mangoes.love2dinehttp://love2dine.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5491771970539508788.post-61683945201935355282012-07-13T12:38:09.034-05:002012-07-13T12:38:09.034-05:00Wow!

This is gorgeous Elisabeth. You've opened my eyes to ideas of things to do with mangos. I have only eaten them raw. I envy you your mango tree and the 'dilemma' of finding recipes to use them. The best part? We, your adoring public, gain the benefit of these recipes you create!
