That sounds quite refreshing - I have never tried that before. In fact the first time I tried any form of green papaya was the other night, my dad saw a thing on youtube about cooking it sugar and butter like you'd cook sweet pumpkin, and we decided to try it. It wasn't bad, but it definitely isn't something I'd sell my soul for either.
Ill go look up green papaya salad and give that a go. No harm in trying :)
