NOTES : In the L. A. Times Culinary SOS article, chef Kevin Cloud
commented that : ” The papaya salsa is also good with other grilled or
steamed seafood. He further stated that Mexican papaya is larger and more
orange than the Hawaiian papayas traditionally seen in supermarkets. Each
has a different flavor as well. Both are sold in most supermarkets.”
