For best quality, use it within a few months.
Storage
Cut papaya should be kept refrigerated in an airtight food-safe container.
For the best flavor and texture, use it within about 2–3 days.
Papaya smoothies are best freshly prepared.
If you have leftovers, refrigerate them promptly in a tightly closed container and use within about 24 hours.
The seed dressing can also be refrigerated.
Store it in a clean jar for about 3–4 days.
Shake before serving because the oil and citrus will naturally separate.
Discard any preparation that develops mold, unexpected bubbling, sliminess, or an unpleasant fermented smell.
A Word About Papaya Seeds
A few crushed seeds used as seasoning are very different from consuming concentrated seed preparations.
Avoid assuming that large amounts are healthier simply because the seeds come from fruit.
There is limited information about the long-term safety of medicinal quantities.
Pregnant people, those trying to become pregnant, children, and anyone with significant medical conditions should avoid experimenting with concentrated papaya-seed remedies without professional advice.
