Papaya: good for your weight
-
What you get from afar is not only tasty but also healthy. This is because exotic fruits and vegetables are bursting with fiber, vitamins and anti-oxidants. The papaya for example: healthy and good for the diet.
What is it?
-
Papaya is a round or oval fruit, 15 to 20 centimeters long, with a smooth green or yellow skin. He comes from Asia, Central America and South and Central Africa. The pulp is orange-yellow, as soft as butter and it tastes a bit like melon. The tree on which papayas grow is also called melon tree.
What's in it?
-
Papaya is bursting with lycopene, an antioxidant that helps protect our body's cells from damage. Research suggests that lycopene may well protect against prostate cancer. Papaya contains over a hundred times as much lycopene as average fruit. Only tomato and watermelon contain more. Papaya provides only 33 calories per 100 grams, about half of what fruit provides on average in energy. A healthy, 'slim' type of fruit.

What should you pay attention to when buying papayas?
-
A papaya bruises quickly, so make sure the skin is intact. A ripe fruit smells of apricots and the skin gives a little when you press it gently. The color of the peel does not say anything about the ripeness.
How do you store papayas?
-
Not in the refrigerator, because they still have to ripen at room temperature. Once ripe, they can be stored for a maximum of a few days.
How do you eat them?
-
Cut the papaya in half and remove the dark seeds and seeds with a spoon. Halve the halves again and cut the flesh from the skin. Like pineapple, papaya counteracts the effects of gelatin. The fruit cannot be used in puddings or bavarois. This problem is solved by blanching the pulp (short cooking).
