Yun Hai Selection Dried Fruit Irwin Mango

NYC-based small business Yun Hai 雲海 offers a selection of premium ingredients for Chinese and Taiwanese cooking, sourcing directly from artisans, farms, and soy sauce breweries in Taiwan. Irwin Mangoes are the mango of choice in Taiwan, used to make the famous mango shaved ice. They also dry nicely! The fruit is sliced into thick pieces and dried over low-heat, preserved in its own sweetness. Super saturated mango flavor. Soft and supple. This product is part of a line of dried fruit that Yun Hai created in March 2021 when China banned imports of Taiwan pineapples nearly overnight, wiping out 90% of Taiwan's export market and leaving farmers scrambling to find buyers. Yun Hai works directly with farmers and farmer-owned coops to source, purchase, and package the fruit. How Yun Hai's Taiwanese dried fruit is different: They source from independent farmers and coops in famed growing regions, and know which harvest each batch of dried fruit is coming from. After harvest, the fruit is washed, pared and cut, then brought immediately to local drying facilities, where the application of heat can be controlled. Keeping the temperature low preserves the most texture and flavor. The fruit is sugar free (except for guava and green mango, which require some sugar to be properly preserved) and contains no additives, sulfur, colorants, or preservatives. The fruit is sliced thick, not chopped into pieces, reducing surface area and keeping as many flavors, nutrients, and juices inside as possible. Each piece of dried mango is made from one half of a fruit. And of course the taste! The aromas and flavors immediately create a sense of nostalgia for Taiwan. 100 g Ingredients: Dried Irwin Mangoes No Added Sugar, Additive Free, No Preservatives Best by printed date.
