Moms friend gave her half a dozen papaya's last week. Then yesterday she asked from one of the tenants to peel them off. As usual she bought the ingredients needed for another batch of pickles.
I have tried the pickles with my fried milkfish, so far it hasn't affected my stomach. It's better home cooked since I know what is inside of it.
Has anyone eat pickles before? The only pickles I remember was the one being added to the hamburger.

Hello @sjvg1976 I wonder how that can be home made. Mangoes and lemons can be expensive here. I guess we have abundant papayas here.

I like papaya but I prefer to just eat it when it's ripe or have papaya soup with pork. We have a variety of Chinese pickles made from vegetables or fruits.

Hello @Beestring I never heard of this papaya soup. Usually i just have a soap with papaya ingredients to it. I never had chinese pickles. I bet it can be home made.

We also used to make pickled papaya/atsara... I also prefer that we make our own because some of the pickles bought in stores taste different. Some are too sweet and some are too sour...

Hello @brokenbee Yeah, they're usually cheap made in my opinion and expensive too. But I never experience buying one.

Here we make variety of pickles. I like them especially the raw mangoes and bamboo shoots one. I bet these papaya pickles would be really good for health.

Hello @arunima25 I definitely agree, not to mention it's fiber also helps me out. I haven't eaten mangoes lately, just papaya fruit.

@Letranknight2015 Yes, papaya has good amount of fibre and that helps with good bowel health.
Mangoes were in plenty here few weeks back. Now the season is almost coming to an end and we don't see them much in the market now. It's another year of wait for mangoes

Hello @sica98 Dollar itself is a high for me, glad they prefer to be making home cooked. As long as it is good for health i don't mind.

That's okay @allknowing I don't make them either. But seeing how it's done I got a pretty good idea how its made.

I miss homemade pickle (atchara). I bought one at the grocery but it was not prepared as we do at home when I was a kid.
