I did the papaya challenge. It's true. The funny thing is that I made a salsa to put over fish ... salsa good, fish bad. Which lead to the whole, whole fish thing. It seems like something I should be better at.
Anyway, as for my papaya battle, the photos of my meal just left on a plane with my husband for nine days to Santa Fe. So I can't show you my creations. But I made the papaya avocado salad I made earlier. It was really really good and I will make it again. It was the dressing with lime and cayenne pepper that really made it. Then I did a salsa - papaya, cucumber, jalapeno, red onion, cilantro, lime and lime-infused olive oil - to go over my completely under-seasoned, over-cooked fish. I had asparagus on the side dressed with the same lime-infused olive oil. And then the meal ended with Papaya sorbet floating in a bath of Prosecco and topped with mint. I had seconds of that. Very refreshing.
I am excited for the whole fish challenge. I've already talked to Eric at the fish counter. I'm just not so sure which one to pick.
I am determined to get better at not only the cooking, but also the posting ... I will steer clear of puns though. That is a battle I would for sure lose to my sister.
