INGREDIENTS:
- 6 pieces of green mangoes (hilaw na mangga) with very firm flesh
- half cup of white rock salt
- 2 cups of water
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Wash the mangoes thoroughly in running tap water.
- Peel and cut each mango into three flat pieces -- the middle piece would be the large, flat seed.
- Shave the flesh off the side of the seed (if you do this skillfully, you'll end up with two long, fat slivers off each mango's seed).
- Slice up the remaining flesh into long, fat slivers.
- Arrange the fat slivers upright in a large jar.
- Meanwhile, prepare the brine solution by boiling the water and the salt for five minutes. Let cool.
- Pour the brine mixture into the jar.
- Cover the jar loosely and let it ferment.
- After three days, tighten the cap and place the jar in the refrigerator.
