Look for Gold or Strawberry papayas. Their sweet flavor complements this tangy crab salad beautifully.

1/4 cup rice vinegar (not seasoned)

3 tablespoons sugar

2 tablespoons water

4 teaspoons Asian fish sauce

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper

1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper

1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh serrano chile (about 1; including seeds)

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

1/2 pound jumbo lump crabmeat, picked over

2 ripe small papayas, halved lengthwise and seeded

Accompaniment: 4 lime wedges

Whisk together vinegar, sugar, water, fish sauce, and salt in a bowl until sugar is dissolved. Add bell peppers, chile, cilantro, and crab and toss gently to combine.
Serve crab salad mounded in papaya halves.
