The paw-paw brings to minds warmer days and beach holidays, but even in winter it is a wonderfully healthy and tasty addition to fruit salads, smoothies and desserts and adds a refreshing and delicious tropical taste to any meal or snack.
This vibrant fruit is available all year round and the health benefits pack a solid punch, especially in the cold South African winter – include it in your diet to fight off colds and flu.
It is rich in vitamin A, calcium and is a great source of potassium. Quinton Mostert, store manager of Food Lover’s Market at Mall @ Newmarket, shares some tips on the best ways to keep paw-paws fresh and tasty for longer. Fully ripened paw-paw can only hold for two or three days at room temperature.
To slow down the ripening process, store paw-paws in the refrigerator.
If stored at room temperature, wrap paw-paws in a paper towel and put in a covered container. The skin of the fruit might turn brown after a week but it won’t affect the quality of the fruit.
As paw-paws go from ripe to overripe, the skin develops brown blotches and spots and gradually darkens to an overall brown and black. During this process, the flavour becomes more intense and develops caramel tones, and some people prefer this more distinct flavour.
