1. Steps: Selection mangoes → Cleaning → Peeling and slicing → Color protection and harden treatment → Drying → Packaging.

2. Processing

Raw material selection: Choose fresh and plump fruits without rot, pests, diseases and mechanical damage. It is best to choose varieties with high dry matter content, thick and tender flesh, less fiber, small and flat core, bright yellow color and good flavor. The ripeness is almost close to full ripeness. If the ripeness is too low, the color and flavor of the mango will be poor and it will rot easily.

Cleaning: Clean the mangoes one by one with flowing water, further remove unqualified fruits, and finally put them in plastic baskets according to size and drain them.

Peeling and slicing: Use a stainless steel knife to manually peel off the skin. The surface is required to be smooth and without obvious corners. The outer skin must be removed. If not, color changing may occur during processing and affect the color of the finished product. After peeling, slice the mango lengthwise with a thickness of about 8 to 10 mm.

Drying: Put the color-protected mangoes evenly into the tray and put them into the Western Flag dryer for drying. The temperature is controlled at 70~75℃ in the early stage of drying and at 60~65℃ in the later stage.

Packaging: When the dried mango reaches the moisture content required for drying, usually about 15% to 18%, place dried mango in a closed container and let it soften for about 2 to 3 days to balance the moisture content of each part, and then package.
