Peel the papayas and rinse them with plenty of water to remove the sap, the milky substance that comes from the fruit's skin. Remember that this step is very important, as the skin is very bitter and can ruin the preparation. Once the papaya is well rinsed, cut it in half, remove the center, and cut into large pieces. Reserve in a container with enough water to cover all the fruit to prevent oxidation.
