When you hear papaya, you may think of a fruit, but in Okinawa, unripe papaya (green papaya) is used as an ingredient in cooking. This green papaya is famous for its high diet effect. It has enzymes that break down the three major nutrients of protein, fat, and carbohydrates, making it easier to absorb nutrients. Also, it contains 7.5 times more polyphenols than red wine, making it effective in preventing lifestyle diseases.

Goya Champuru, the epitome of Okinawan Champuru culture. Goya is rich in vitamin C, contains many components that keep the stomach healthy such as beta-carotene and minerals, and is overwhelmingly healthier than other vegetables. By reducing bitterness in the pre-processing and leaving umami, Goya is a dish that even those who are not fond of it should try at least once.
