What can you do with papayas besides eating them as a fruit?
They’re a natural meat tenderizer thanks to an enzyme called papain, which breaks down protein and makes your dishes extra juicy and tender.
Just add fresh papaya to your marinade—along with vinegar, salt, pepper, herbs, or a touch of chili and let it sit for an hour or two. It works wonders.
