Atchara, a Philippine appetizer which has shredded green papaya as the primary constituent of the food, is what I think the well-eaten condiment nationwide. And our family haven’t got any problem of papayas yet because we have grandma’s farm-called at the backyard.
The food composes of easy on the pocket ingredients: onion and garlic, carrot slices, bell pepper, ginger, and other chilies (optional), thus making it effortless to prepare. After all the elements are mixed, they are seasoned with salt, vinegar, and sugar.
Atchara is intended to have vinegar, sugar, or salt so that the feature can be preserved for a long time in sealed jars even with no refrigeration.
As I mentioned earlier that atchara is maybe the well-eaten appetizer in the Philippines, it is because I found out that all regions appear to have their own adaptation of the food. Furthermore, the delightful colors above also resembles the reason why is it prominent in our homeland.
