Good Morning Uncle Phaedrus, where I live we have no fresh peaches only canned,
but a lot of fresh mango's Some of the recipes call for fresh peaches! Could I
use mango's instead of peaches in pie recipes or would they be to mushy?

Hello Doug,
Everything that I read, including David Joachim's "The Food Substitutions Bible", says you should
have no problem if you substitute fresh mangoes for fresh peaches. A slight difference in taste,
of course, and mangoes can be a bit sweeter than the peaches you are used to. However, rather than
using a peach pie recipe and substituting mangoes, why not just use a mango pie recipe? Takes any
guesswork out of the equation. See: Mango Pie
