I love papaya so any way to eat it is good to me. :) But, there's not added sugar, so it's just enough to sweeten the broth.Wandering Chopstickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04703018765718062460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29502985.post-4757709995334544602011-04-09T18:16:04.284-07:002011-04-09T18:16:04.284-07:00I've never had the ripen papaya either.

This is a nice strange combination but I guess more difficult to cook compared to the green one because the ripen is too soft and too sweet.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00344580517185122409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29502985.post-11350262792317187192010-04-27T17:43:51.216-07:002010-04-27T17:43:51.216-07:00Maybelle's Mom,

They say it's good for getting rid of wind, and for nourishing depleted elements in the new Shukuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11258042395311417934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29502985.post-21265874912574811692010-04-27T07:51:30.186-07:002010-04-27T07:51:30.186-07:00Aaaaaah!

I was just THINKING about papaya soup - I've had the unripe papaya version from the Philippines, but this looks wonderful (and ripe papayas are easier to find too right now.)<br /><br />Have been loving the food place posts and the braised chicken and stuff! Just haven't had a lot of time to reply with life being so evil. I think I'm going to give this a try after I finish Shukuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11258042395311417934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29502985.post-76875460004327999882010-04-27T05:14:18.812-07:002010-04-27T05:14:18.812-07:00I just LOVE papaya soup!!
