Description |
Organic Red Papaya Pulp/Puree is made from organically grown Red Papayas, ripened
under controlled atmospheric conditions.
The preparation process includes
washing, cutting, deseeding, de-stoning, refining and packing. In case of aseptic
packing the pulp is sterilized and packed in aseptic bags. The refined pulp is
also packed in cans, hermetically sealed and retorted.
Frozen pulp is
pasteurized and deep-frozen in plate freezers.
The process ensures that
the natural flavour and aroma of the fruit is retained in the final product. |
|
| Usage |
Papaya is widely consumed as a table fruit particularly at breakfast and as a
dessert. The pulp along with cream also makes an excellent breakfast drink. Aseptic
Papaya Pulp/Concentrate is used in the preparation of jams, mixed fruit drink,
baby foods, confectionery in ice cream and yoghurt.
The therapeutic value
of the product makes it suitable for combination with other fruit pulp or puree
to make nutritious health drinks
