💭Tips for Recipe Success
Choose Ripe Mangoes: Select ripe, fragrant mangoes for the best flavor.
Blend Mangoes Smoothly: When pureeing the mangoes, ensure they are blended until completely smooth. You can strain the mango puree through a fine mesh sieve.
Adjust Sweetness: Taste your mango puree before adding it to the cream mixture. Depending on the sweetness of the mangoes, you may need to adjust the amount of condensed milk to achieve the desired level of sweetness.
Whip Cream to Soft Peaks: Whip the whipping cream until it forms soft peaks. Be careful not to overwhip, as this can lead to a grainy texture. Soft peaks mean the cream holds its shape but still has a slight curl at the tip.
Chill Thoroughly: Allow the pudding to chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until set. This allows the flavors to meld together and ensures the pudding has the right consistency.
Storage: Cover the leftover mango pudding tightly with plastic wrap or transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2-3 days, ensuring it remains chilled until ready to serve.
