If you freeze unripe papaya, it won&rsquo;t ripen after thawing, and you&rsquo;ll end up with a tasteless mush.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&rsquo;s how to go about freezing papaya:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>Slice or cube the fruit.<\/strong>&nbsp;Go with what works best for you. Smaller pieces are usually more versatile than large ones.<\/li><li><strong>Pre-freeze the pieces.<\/strong>&nbsp;Lay the fruit on a cookie sheet in a single layer so that the pieces don&rsquo;t touch. Put that sheet into the freezer for a couple of hours until the slices freeze solid. This step prevents the parts from sticking and allows you to scoop only a few instead of defrosting the whole container.<\/li><li><strong>Transfer frozen fruit to an airtight container or a freezer bag and back into the freezer.<\/strong>&nbsp;A freezer bag usually takes less space in the freezer, but go with what works for you.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>That&rsquo;s it.

Papayas produce ethylene, a gas that helps them mature. Traping the gas in that paper bag accelerates the ripening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To supercharge the process, insert another ethylene producing fruit into the bag, like an apple or a banana (<a href=\"#refs\">[UCSD]<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-cut-papayas\">How To Cut Papayas?<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Preparing a papaya for eating doesn&rsquo;t take long, and you don&rsquo;t need any fancy equipment. A good knife and a teaspoon are all you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, you&nbsp;<strong>cut the papaya in half lengthwise<\/strong>&nbsp;&ndash; see one of my photos above. Then you&nbsp;<strong>remove the seeds with a teaspoon<\/strong>. Everything is soft and goes smoothly.
