This TikTok hack for peeling avocado or mango is just life-saving
As childred, mangoes were a staple of our summertime memories. However, devouring this delicious fruit often resulted in sticky chins and messy hands as we struggled to navigate through the tough peel. Even when attempting to cut the mangoes on a traditional cutting board with a knife, the process remained cumbersome. That is until we stumbled upon a remarkable mango-cutting hack that revolutionized the technique. This is prepared by SSP.
The game-changing method involves making a single precise cut around the mango, resembling the process of pitting an avocado. However, instead of slicing lengthwise, from pole to pole, the trick entails cutting crosswise, or "the short way," perpendicular to each end of the fruit. Intrigued by this unconventional approach, we wasted no time putting it to the test.
Here's how you can flawlessly skin a mango with just one cut:
1. Begin by positioning a chef's knife around the pit. Make a single long cut around the mango's perimeter, imitating the method used for pitting an avocado.
2. With a firm grip on the mango, place one hand on the bottom half and the other on the top. Give it a firm twist while exerting moderate pressure. Voilà! Through a combination of slight wiggling and applied force, the top half of the mango should seamlessly detach from the bottom, effectively exposing the seed and succulent flesh of the fruit.
