Culinary Uses of Papaya Flower

Papaya Flower can be used in:

• Thai and Southeast Asian stir-fries
• Soups and curries
• Cooked vegetable salads
• Egg and omelette dishes
• Dishes with chilli, garlic and shallots
• Traditional vegetable side dishes

The flowers have a naturally bitter flavour. They are commonly blanched or boiled before cooking to soften their texture and reduce some of the bitterness. They can then be stir-fried or incorporated into soups, curries and salads.

Papaya flower pairs particularly well with chilli, garlic, shallots, galangal, lemongrass and strongly flavoured sauces.

• Store refrigerated at 2–5°C
