    About Soybean Oil<\/h2>\n\n\n

    \"The<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

    Both the mango ceviche dressing and the frying of the plantain cups are made with soybean oil \u2014 the one you most likely already have in your pantry labeled “vegetable oil.” To make sure it’s 100% soybean oil, check that the ingredient list reads just two words: soybean oil<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I choose it because its neutral flavor doesn’t compete with the mango or the plantain. It has a high smoke point that makes it ideal for frying, contains no trans fats, is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin E, and its unsaturated fats help maintain healthy cholesterol levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Plantain & Mango: Flavors from my childhood<\/em><\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    There are two flavors I treasure from my childhood in Caracas: fried ripe plantains and a good mango. At home we ate fried sweet plantain slices \u2014 tajadas \u2014 almost every day. Mangoes were a whole other story: they grew on the trees that shaded entire neighborhoods like Los Palos Grandes and Los Chorros, and we periodically received “shipments” that my great-aunts sent to my grandparents from Margarita Island.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Even though they are two of my favorite flavors, I had never combined them until I saw plantain cups made from green plantain \u2014 tost\u00f3n \u2014 served with shrimp ceviche. That was my epiphany, and I resolved to make my own ripe plantain cups with mango ceviche. And modesty aside, this is absolutely divine.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Enjoy!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
