A little while back we had a nice Jerked Chicken with Avocado and Papaya Salad, from Eat Caribbean by Virginia Burke.
We have already got a Avocado seed growing so we thought it might be a bit of fun to try and germinate the seeds from the Papaya Fruit.We used the same method as we do for saving tomato seeds, in that we added the seeds to a jar of water and let it ferment for a week. Then air dried the seeds for another week.
We then popped all the seeds into a medium sized pot filled with compost, this is now in the back garden poly-tunnel with a label. Just to see if any pop up in the next few months or not. It'll be a bit of fun to grow one on as a house plant or something.
