Making the Papaya Meat Tenderizer
All you need to make your own meat tenderizer at home is one medium-sized papaya fruit and ¼ teaspoon of salt. Rinse the papaya under warm water, then cut into the papaya about ¼" deep and peel off the skin. You should be left with a slightly soft, fleshy fruit.
Chop the papaya fruit into small cubes and place it in a small bowl. Add ¼ teaspoon of salt, and then MASH the papaya with a fork or the back of a spoon. You want to make a thick paste, so keep mixing until all the lumps are out of the mixture. You will need about one tablespoon of papaya mixture or every half pound of meat (all types).
Tenderizing Meat with Papaya
After you're prepared your meat tenderizer, you will need to activate the enzymes. This requires heating the meat to at least 140 °F, so all you need to do is heat the meat with the tenderizer on the stove, or in the oven. Different types of meat require different heating times, but you want to raise the temperature to no more than 160 °F or the tenderizer will become inactive. According to EnzymeDevelopment.com, Papain becomes completely inactive at a temperature range of 170-185 degrees Fahrenheit.
Check the temperature regularly when cooking the meat using your preferred method so you don't burn the meat, or lose the effects of the tenderizer.

How can I effectively dry papaya seeds for planting to ensure successful germination and growth?
To effectively dry papaya seeds for planting, first remove them from the fruit and wash off any pulp. Then, spread the seeds out on a paper towel or mesh screen in a warm, well-ventilated area for about a week to allow them to dry completely. Make sure to stir or turn the seeds occasionally to ensure even drying. Once dry, store the seeds in a cool, dry place until you are ready to plant them. This process will help ensure successful germination and growth of the papaya seeds.

Should you bake ribs before grilling?
No!!!!! The concept comes from Eastern Europe where Poles and Czechs prepare ribs by simmering them in water with cabbage, potatoes, carrots, and caraway seed, making a very nice pork stew. But water is a solvent. It pulls much of the flavor out of the meat, and it can make the meat mushy. When you boil meat and bones, you make a rich flavorful soup. All that color in the pot is flavor that you can never get back into the meat. Boil meat too much and water can even dry it out by causing the proteins to contract and squeeze the moisture out of the muscle fibers.
Will tenderizing chicken with a fork make the taste or texture weird?
No, whether you tenderize the chicken with a mallet, a meat tenderizer or a fork, it shouldn't affect the taste in any way. But may I make an alternate suggestion? Do a dry brine on the chicken. The day before cooking, sprinkle some salt on the raw chicken, and let it refrigerate for 24 hours before cooking. The salt not only flavors the meat, but breaks some of the protein strands, and shorter protein strands means more tender meat. That way, no work, no mechanical manipulation is needed, and your chicken tastes better.
