Candied Papaya

The PAPAYA has a mild sweetness and soft luscious flesh. Covered with a thin but firm golden yellow to orange skin, it opens to a fragant flesh to the same hue and many tiny black seeds in the center. It's color deepens when in candied form but it's flavor and aroma are enriched, giving a flavor all its own. Being rich in vitamin C, it offers a healthy addition to sherbets and tarts.
