How to ripen green papaya more effectively

1. Ripen papaya with toothpicks

Ripening papaya with toothpicks is the simplest and most convenient method, and it is also very safe. The specific operation method is to poke some small holes at both ends of the purchased papaya with a toothpick, then put it in a fresh-keeping bag and keep it in a warm environment. It can be taken out and eaten after two or three days.

2. Papaya can be ripened with bran

Using rice bran to ripen papaya is also a good method. This method is more common in rural areas. People can bury the raw papaya they bought directly in rice sugar, and cover the rice sugar with a layer of heat-insulating material to keep the rice bran inside at about 30 degrees. After two days, take out the raw papaya and you will find that it has become ripe.

3. Drug-induced ripening of papaya

Papaya can also be ripened with drugs. The most ideal drug is ethephon. However, when using ethephon to ripen papaya, remember that the dosage must not be too large, otherwise it will be unsafe for people to eat. The specific method is to dilute ethephon with clean water in proportion, and then spray it directly on the surface of the raw papaya. After spraying, cover the raw papaya. Generally, the papaya sprayed with the drug will become ripe after 24 hours.
