Pick them mature green. Allow to ripen indoors and eat at first sign of give when pressed. Picking mature green allows them to retain some acidity. It just takes some experimentation with eating them at different stages of ripeness.
For example, Nam Doc Mai, when eaten at the right stage is a top tier mango, with an excellent subacid and sweet combo and great complexity of flavor. Eaten at the wrong stage, it's not appealing at all.
Could you elaborate a bit about the right stage for NDM? I remember reading your explanations about this topic for Maha but for NDM they went under my radar, sorry if you already explained in another thread
