We always in Cuba had papaya milk shakes. You can freeze chunks in an airtight bag and place about 10 chunks in your blender, add milk about 8 oz and about 1 tbsp of sugar or more if you like it sweet and crushed ice. If too thick. Add more milk. Like a smoothie . It is suppose to be smooth and cold. Guess you could add some liquor but in the Caribbean this was our refreshing milkshake as a child. Enjoy!

I just tried my first papaya today. I cut it in half and eat the other half but used the other half to blend it and mix with watermelon juice it’s so good 😊

I have papaya frequently for breakfast. I cut the papaya into small cubes, dust wih cinnamon, and then add Kefir or yogurt. If I have any berries in the fridge, I can add these as well. It is absolutely delicious.

Thanks Dani, I make papaya smoothies, remove the skin but throw it in the blender with the seeds. Last night I made a smoothie bowl with papaya, mango, chia seeds, flax seeds,  cinnamon and soy milk, topped with coconut flakes, yumm!

Very good presentation, clear, succinct, halt-free speech, good camera editing, and done around 5 min. Nice to know that papaya seeds are edible.

The papaya seeds when dried and blended is used to cure and wipe out worms

I bought a papaya a few days ago but then was wondering what I should do with it. These comments have helped a lot, thanks everyone! And thank you for this video too.

We have just had papaya in a smoothie with spinach, coconut milk, banana and other tropical fruit. My four year old wanted to know more about them so thanks for the video!

I cannot eat pepper but love the flavor, so I dehydrate the papaya seeds and grind them to make "pepper" for seasoning my food. Use it all the time. :-)

I love my papaya right off the tree. That is one of the thing I miss most about living in the Caribbean. Fresh fruits right off the trees. 🌴

Thank you for providing other way to eat papaya. I add to other several fruits to make fruit salad. My favorite is when I make smoothie with spinach, bananas, beets, apples, blue berries, carrots, cucumber, and papaya gives it a beautiful texure/smoothness. So good.

I grow my own fruit, we currently have four trees so that means lots of fruit. We love green papaya salad served with sticky rice, it's a Thai dish which I learned to make while living in Thailand. It is fruity with lots of lime and thai pepper and garlic. Oh, I could eat this a couple of times a day. Oh, the dish in Thai, and excuse my phonetics, "Som Tum"

I purchased my FIRST papaya a couple of days ago ... I am currently detoxing my body and cleansing my blood with herbal teas sea moss and fruit/veggies smoothies ....
I am excited 😁 to taste and to use my papaya ...
Much love to all ....

I'd take that spicy salad, put it in a blender (with the seeds!), and make ice pops out of it! I'm in Mexico, and I eat papaya frozen all the time. It's one of my favorite frozen fruits.

Hi I was fortunate to live on the big island of Hawaii for 3 yrs. my favorite way to eat papaya is half it and fill with vanilla yogurt, top with fresh berries and a little granola or nuts for some crunch. I would make these all the time very yummy. Love your channel!!

[rinawillemse]

We had a lot of papaya trees in our yard when I grew up. We just loved papaya. There were always papaya on our table. Mostly fruit salad but we loved eating them in bite sized pieces with just a little orange juice squeezed over. Nowadays I liquidise them for the most delicious smoothies. Papayas is truly a magical fruit!!!

Thanks for sharing, we like to make a smoothie that includes, papaya with seeds, ginger, lime, honey, a little cold water in a blender. Perfect healthy refreshing smoothie 🤩

[estelalordiluv]

I love it as dessert and also in my smoothies with almond milk as a fruit shake it also reduces high blood pressure and digestive issues (constipation)

I emigrated from the UK to Grenada last October and my new home has a tree, picked my 4th papaya today since I moved there, love them!!
