1. Store mangoes in a warm place: To encourage ripening, place the mangoes in a warm spot, such as a kitchen counter or on top of the refrigerator. Avoid placing them in direct sunlight, as this can cause the mangoes to over-ripen or develop sunburn spots.

2. Place mangoes in a paper bag: If you want to speed up the ripening process, place the mangoes in a paper bag with an apple or banana. These fruits produce a gas called ethylene, which can help the mangoes ripen more quickly. Fold the top of the bag to seal it and leave it at room temperature.

3. Check the mangoes regularly: Mangoes can ripen quickly, so be sure to check them regularly. Once they start to soften and have a slight give when gently squeezed, they are ready to eat. You can also smell the stem end of the mango to check for a sweet aroma, which is another sign of ripeness.

4. Store ripe mangoes in the refrigerator: Once your mangoes are ripe, you can store them in the refrigerator to help slow down the ripening process. This will give you a few extra days to enjoy them before they become too soft.

5. Enjoy your ripe mangoes: Once your mangoes are ripe, they’re ready to eat! Cut them into slices or cubes and enjoy them on their own, or add them to smoothies, salads, or desserts.

Remember, the ripening process can take anywhere from a few days to a week, depending on the initial ripeness of the mangoes and the temperature of your home. Be patient and keep an eye on your mangoes to ensure they ripen properly.
