To all fellow food lovers I want to say how are you? And it's me again @chuch wants to share with you the appetizer I made which is called pickled papaya.
Since we have many papayas that grow spontaneously in different parts of our surroundings. Some papaya grew in the back of the house, on the side and even in front of the dirty kitchen. As I looked at the papayas provided by nature, I felt happy because there were plenty of papayas and at the same time I was worried and thinking what if we couldn't eat it all and maybe they would just rot. So I thought about making pickled papaya and the other papaya I gave away to my friends, neighbors, relatives and whoever wanted it.
And let's proceed to make pickled papaya and I also add some vegetables from my garden.
INGREDIENTS
Papaya
Carrots
Eggplant
Ampalaya
String beans
Bell pepper
Garlic
Onions
Ginger
Vinegar
Salt
Brown sugar
PREPARATION
Peel the papaya and grate it. After grated it, put salt and water to soak for a few minutes. After that, squeeze the papaya to extract the juice. And repeat once.
FOR PICKLE BRINE
- Put vinegar in a pan and add salt, sugar and let it dissolve.
*And when the sugar has dissolved, add the ginger, carrots and garlic and boil for a while.
*After boiling add the string beans and ampalaya boil for a few seconds.
- Add the eggplant and for a while add the grated papaya stir and add onions and bell pepper stir again and cover and let it boil. And after boiling open it and taste it and if the taste is right and if the crunchiness of the vegetable and papaya is right it can be served or let it call and put it in a jar.
Here's my cooked pickled papaya
I'm happy because everyone liked it because they said the taste and the crunchiness of the vegetables and papaya were just right.
That's all for my food blog today. I hope you like my appetizer recipe. And see you on my next food recipe.
