"papaya" news and stories

One of the things I look forward to the most when eating at a Thai or Laotian restaurant is the green papaya salad. This pungent mix of fish sauce, lime, chilis, dried shrimp, and green papaya strips never fails to make a bright burst on my palate along with some sticky rice. Plus, the papayas strips are very refreshing, and makes a nice starter dish, or a side dish to accompany the main entree. The recipe itself is quite simple, and would make a great addition to any Asian influenced meal at home.
