How to choose fresh ingredients
How to select crispy and delicious papaya
- To make the best papaya salad, choose green papaya fruits that are firm to the touch.
- If green papaya is unavailable, you can choose slightly ripe papaya, ensuring it still has some firmness.
- Choose fruits that feel heavy in hand, with the stem still sticky with sap, as this indicates fresh papaya that has just been harvested.
- Avoid buying ripe papayas, as ripe papayas will be soft and the salad won’t taste good.
Where to buy dried beef?
- For making salad, you should use shredded dried beef instead of whole pieces of dried beef.
- You can easily find shredded dried beef at markets, supermarkets, or on e-commerce sites. Additionally, you can make shredded dried beef at home following the guide from TasteVN.

Prepare the ingredients
Use a peeler to shred the papaya (you can make it thin or thick according to your preference), then place it in cold water and rinse it 2 – 3 times to remove the sap.
To keep the papaya crunchy, soak it in an ice water bowl for 10 – 15 minutes.
Wash the Vietnamese coriander and chop it finely. Roasted peanuts should be crushed slightly.
