The Amazing Mango Peeling Technique - Peel A Mango With A Cup In 15 Seconds! I am subscribe to The Kitchn and they frequently publish not only recipes, but also useful tips for the kitchen. This morning, I recieved an email with an article titled "Can You Really Peel a Mango with a Drinking Glass?". I had to visit the webpage to see what the heck they were talking about. After seeing "You’ve Been Peeling Mangos The Wrong Way Your Whole Life" on Buzz Feed, they put the technique to the test in their test kitchen, and proved that this method was both successful and useful for a quick mango peeling. Naturally, after seeing this mind blowing method, I HAD to test it out. In fact, it took less than 24 hours for me to do so. I grabbed a glass with a wide mouth, a mango and my camera, and got to it. I apologize for the not so 'classy' glass! It was the only one that was of the right shape for my mango peeling (that was clean, anyways). These glasses were actually a gift for my dad, Miguel, from Man Crates. My dad is a beer fiend and getting him custom barware for his IPAs was a must! Moving on. I tried out this mango peeling method, and it was a success! I documented the process, step by step, so that I could share with you all just how it went down in my home, and give you more information so you can decide whether or not you should do it. (but really, you should)

Last weekend, on July 12 & 13th, I was fortunate enough to have been able to attend two Weekend Intensives at Matthew Kenney Culinary of Santa Monica. I attended both the Essentials of Raw Cuisine and the Advanced Raw Cuisine courses.
