Tips: To cook this dessert, the papaya that you choose, cannot be too ripe. Best to choose a green one with a bit of yellow skin, as this will have the best firmness and texture for this dessert.

Note: It is best to consume this sweet soup within the day as it's not advisable to keep snow/white fungus overnight as the nutrients will be reduced and harmful substances will be produced overnight.
