Green Goodness
S came back from her week in Trinidad rested, nicely tanned and bearing gifts of unique deliciousness. She brought in a few plastic bags of crunchy green mango slices, marinated in a slightly hot, salty mixture of cilantro, lime and other seasonings. It was such a refreshing, tart and zesty combination. Originally, i'm not a fan of green mango (we always ate it buttery ripe, juice dripping down the chin and arms) but what S brought in has totally done a 180 on me. be sometimes eats green mango with a little salt, but next time we get one, i'm going to try to recreate this cilantro marinade for it.There are a lot of recipes online for "mango cilantro chutney" but they're not what i'm talking about. Doing a search for "Trinidad" and "green mango" calls up a few recipes using chile, limes and salt - more like what we ate, but with chopped cilantro bits. I'm sure other countries have similar things, too.
