- Comments: Goi Du Du is a refreshing salad with tangy, sweet and spicy characteristics perfect with any barbecued meat. It is also a great appetizer. Its principal ingredient, green papaya, sometimes called pawpaw, varies in shape from round to elongated. It has dark green skin and light green flesh. Green papaya is used as a vegetable because, unlike the rich, orange-colored papaya, it is mild, not sweet and crunchy. When green papaya is not available, use green mango. Both can be purchased in Asian or possibly Latin markets.
- One hint: For a heartier variation of goi du du, add in steamed shrimp and sliced cooked pork tenderloin.
