Mangu on the Go — history of mangu
Two theories of the orign of the word Mangú
Posted by Isaac Lopez on
Mangú is probably the most identifiable dish to Dominicans, sure we have rice, beans and meat, and sancocho and tostones, and many others, but Mangú is king en la tierra de los platanos. And there is no specific time to eat it, it can be breakfast, lunch or dinner, and nothing better than having it with it's side kicks, the terrible hunger fighting combo Tres Golpes: Mangú, Salami, Eggs and Cheese. But where did the name Mangú comes from, there are two theories of the origin of the names one dates back to the 1500's the other to the early 1900's.
