Green papaya crunches like carrot, but tastes mild like a cucumber. If you can make your way to a large Asian market, you’ll probably be able to find some perfectly pre-shredded for you. While there, grab a bag of frozen grated coconut. Moist and naturally sweet, it tastes completely different from the dry papery shreds we find in the baking aisle.
