The combination of papaya, avocado, sweet red onion and cilantro is a perfect match. It\u2019s what I call a summer papaya salad of the highest calling. It\u2019s a fantastic salad to serve as a main with grilled jumbo tiger prawns or as a sumptuous side. Not only does it taste great; it\u2019s also pretty.<\/p>\n

Choose a firm, ripe avocado so you can enjoy the best of its smooth texture and a nutty taste. Avocados do not ripen on the tree, but rather after they have been harvested, so even if those \u201cready to eat\u201d avocados are a little too hard, you can speed up the process by placing an unripe avocado in a brown paper bag. This traps the ethylene gas it produces and supports the ripening process. By doing so, a firm avocado placed in a paper bag will ripen at room temperature in about 3 to 6 six days. So for an avocado that is just a tad too hard, it very well may be perfectly ripe and ready to eat the following day. The slow down the process, store avocados in the fridge. This will let you use your perfectly ripe avocado days later. <\/p>\n

\"Papaya\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Not only are papaya seeds edible, small amounts of them in your diet surprisingly good for you. They have a high levels of digestive enzymes, are antibacterial, anti-parasitic and have powerful liver regenerating properties. Sounds good to me, how do we get more of them into our diet? Well, add them to your dressing as a start. Their flavor is a bit like a cross between mustard and black peppercorns; two things I love in my salad dressings. <\/p>\n

Keep in mind, when choosing a papaya, some people prefer to select the smaller ones as they tend to have seeds with a milder taste, whereas the seeds of a large papaya tend to be a little more bitter. <\/p>\n
