Mangodeen - A New Mango Leather Product
Omer Khidir Ahmed

Abstract: A new fancy dried mango leather product named Mangodeen was developed. Pure mango juice was prepared from fully ripe fruits and sodium metabisulphite was added to prevent browning, oxidation of ascorbic acid and contamination. Additive materials namely: cane-sugar, bee-honey, lime juice and Aradeib pulp (Tamarindus indica) were added to improve quality and prolong storage of Mangodeen. Prepared samples were spread onto metal trays and left to dry under the sun. Mangodeen was packed in thin polyethylene bags and stored for 3-6 months at room temperature. All additive materials were found to improve the quality and prolong storage of Mangodeen.
