This colorful salsa combines two of Florida's favorite foods: black beans
and papaya. Floridian papaya is larger and softer than Hawaiian or
Mexican, with a color that ranges from coral to orange-red. Single fruits
can weigh up to 10 pounds, so they often sold cut up, in large pieces.
Florida and Hawaiian papaya can be used interchangeably in this recipe.
The salsa makes a good accompaniment to roasted chicken or grilled fish.
