Todays Featured Produce ~ Papaya Slice it length wise and scoop out the seeds (save and dry them and use as pepper) peel and cube. Eat with a squeeze of lemon or lime juice. It is sweet with a musky flavor, it can be used with meats to help tenderize or in smoothies or aqua frescas. For my Aqua Fresca I place one small peeled and seeded papaya in a blender, added one cup of water and the juice of one lemon. Purée until smooth. Add another cup of water and stir. Serve over ice and add lemon or lime to taste. (If you wish you can add a few tsp. of sweeter).
