how to
 Many Asian supermarkets have shredded green papaya and that is what I use. However, if you can find whole green papaya, you can peel the papaya and cut into pieces with a regular cheese grater with medium to large holes. As you approach the center, you see the white immature seeds inside. Stop and to another part of the papaya. Discard any seeds that you in your bowl.
In Thailand, green papaya salad with a mortar made of clay, wooden pestle and a spatula. Smash a clove of garlic first. Then add the green beans and cherry tomatoes, halved. Pound a few times just to bruise the beans and get the tomato juice. Add peppers and cook enough so that the heat, unless you do not like warm salad. Add the green papaya, dried peanuts, grilled shrimp, fish sauce, the lime juice and palm sugar. Press the mixture with the pestle in the mortar and the push-to-spatula down, so that the dough is smooth.
But if you are big enough mortar you can crush the tomatoes, garlic, green beans. Enter aside in a bowl. Add the dried shrimp, fish sauce, the lime juice and palm sugar in the bowl. Add green papaya and mix well. Serve with sticky rice and a piece of cabbage, green beans and Thai basil. To Tum som pbooh, you can place the dried shrimp and roasted peanuts and salted shrimp. Crab Salt microwave for 30 seconds before they kill on the papaya salad, to remove any remaining bacteria. Add only half the fish sauce, seafood, because salt is known to very salty.
