Papaya ripe

Never call our papaya just papaya. The official name is "Golden Papaya". This name is due to the striking exotic fruit of the color, the beautiful golden yellow. Just take a bite and you can taste why it is called the "golden" fruit: wonderfully sweet and with lots of vitamin C. With its pear-shaped appearance, the golden papaya catches your eye directly on the fruit shelf. Under the thin golden yellow skin is delicious pulp, the color of which ranges from orange to red. In each fruit there is a cavity filled with small seeds. When are they ripe? If you have bought such a golden papaya, you want to eat it as soon as possible. Do you still have doubts? If the pulp gives way a little when you press it gently, it is ripe. Preparation: Cut the papaya lengthwise. Then remove the seeds with a spoon. Then you can slice the pulp or spoon it out. Do you love to experiment in the kitchen? Then you can also use the black seeds. The ground seeds are sometimes used as a substitute for black pepper: The sharp, spicy taste is reminiscent of it. Storage: The papaya keeps its freshness for a while on the fruit plate. The fruit should not be stored in the refrigerator.
