Mango for salad

Any tips on how to chose a mango for a mango salad?

    Depends on the salad you're making. If you want sweet mangoes, you want them just underripe. If you sniff the mango it should have a detectable floral scent. If you want sour mangoes, they should be green and firm.

      Just a little bit under ripe; you don't want it to be mushy.
