Papaya

To peel a papaya, hold the papaya on its side on a cutting surface. Slice the fruit in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds to use as a garnish. Place a papaya half, cut side down, on a work surface, then remove peel with a knife. Remove 1 inch to 3 inches of its narrow end, which has little flavor. Slice with a paring knife. Repeat with the second half. Serve garnished with seeds.
