Metabolic Balance Presents Weekly Recipes with Ingredients That Are Going To Make You Feel Amazing - Part 1 Papaya

Papaya originated in Central America and Southern Mexico but is now grown in many other parts of the world. Papaya contains an enzyme called papain, which can break down the tough protein chains found in muscle meat. Because of this, people have used papaya to tenderize meat for thousands of years.

Papaya is a true superstar among exotic fruits. But how do you actually deal with the orange multi-talent? #MetabolicBalance gives some hints:

Purchase: The peel of the papaya should ideally already have yellow stripes or spots. Only then the fruit ripens completely. The degree of ripeness can also be recognized from the consistency of the pulp: The easier the pulp can be pressed in, the riper the fruit is.

Consumption: Cut the papaya lengthwise for immediate consumption and peel out the seeds with a spoon. Then the fruit halves can be sprinkled with a little lemon or lime juice, when you are not in the plan. The pulp can be easily spooned out.

Storage: Papayas that are not yet fully ripe are best kept in a dry place, protected from direct sunlight. Mature fruits can also be stored in the fridge for up to a week. For storage, the pulp of the papaya can be frozen in bags.
