Cook, stirring to dissolve the sugar, 5 minutes. Pack the mango wedges into a 1-quart jar, then pour in the hot brine; let cool completely. Cover and refrigerate overnight or up to 1 week.

PICKLED MANGO

Steps:

• Pack mangoes into clean, widemouth jars.
• Tuck a couple of chili peppers in with the mangoes.
• Set aside.
• Mix vinegar, sugar, salt and any spices you'd like to use in a saucepan; bring to a boil.
• Stir constantly, until all the sugar and salt has dissolved, and the mixture becomes a bit syrupy.
• Pour evenly over mangoes (if they are divided between jars, put equal amounts of syrup in each jar).
• Fill the jars with enough water to just cover the mangoes.
• Seal tightly, shake to mix, then refrigerate for several days, turning bottles intermittently.
• Three days seems to be fine, but can take up to a week.
• Keeps for an indeterminate length of time.
