INGREDIENTS 8-12 fibrous mangoes, peeled Water to cover 1-2 Tablespoons freshly grated ginger root Zest and juice of 1-2 limes Honey or maple syrup to sweeten, as needed DIRECTIONS Place peeled mangoes in deep heavy-bottomed pot with water to cover. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and cover. Simmer for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Set aside to cool. Use very clean hands to squeeze fruit and fiber off each mango pit. Puree all fruit and fiber in a food processor or blender in batches. Strain pureed fruit, pressing the pulp through the screen. Return strained fruit to pot and bring to a boil.

Strain soup a second time, again pushing pulp through screen. Chill soup before serving. Cover and refrigerate leftovers. SERVING SUGGESTIONS Top with diced raw mango.
