Vegan Vanilla Pudding with Mango & Chia
My Tasty Enemy: Welcome to “My Tasty Enemy,“ where we face our biggest culinary enemies in the kitchen. Julia isn’t fond of pineapple, Brussels sprouts and endives, Isa dislikes kohlrabi, mango, and radishes. Will we still find recipes that somehow make us like these ingredients?
Hello mango, so today it’s your turn! My first tasty-enemy-challenge with lovely kohlrabi failed, so today I am trying to master my second tasty enemy: mango. You can’t understand that point, right? Mango tastes like soap for me. I don’t eat mangos in ice cream, juices or as a fruit. So todays challenge is a hard one, because mango is a real big tasty enemy for me.

the conclusion: To dissolve the whole story: mango is still my tasty enemy. I really don’t chum up with mango. The smell, the consistency, the greasy feeling. But hey, the vanilla pudding is still great!
