How to choose papaya for delicious stir-frying
- You should choose green papayas or slightly ripe ones, just ripe enough so that when stir-fried, they will be tastier, have a beautiful color, are crunchy, and not soft.
- Choose those that are elongated or evenly round, with a green skin and speckled yellow spots.
- When holding the papaya, it should feel firm and sturdy, especially if the stem is still fresh and sap is flowing, that is the best.
How to prepare papaya without latex
- Use the tip of a knife to make a few cuts on the surface of the fruit, then soak it in a basin of water to release all the sap. Next, wash it clean, peel it, cut it open, remove the seeds, and cut off the bitter part.
- After peeling, if you do not cook it immediately, you can soak it in a diluted saltwater solution to prevent the papaya from turning dark.
