Instructions

  1. Wash guavas. Cut the ends off and halve or quarter them. Chop the peels and set aside. Scoop out the flesh and place it in a very heavy bottomed pot.

  2. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 10-20 minutes. When cooked down to runnier consistency, scoop out and pass through a fine mesh strainer or chinoise until all you have left is a bunch of dry seeds. You will want to get your hands in there and push the pulp through.

  3. Return pulp to the pot with the chopped peels. Stir in sugar. Simmer until peels are soft, about 15 minutes.

  4. Using a immersion blender or a blender in batches, puree until a smooth consistency. To thicken more, let simmer until you reach the desired thickness.

  5. It is often made to be thick enough to slice. It's up to you, depending on what you want to do with it. Place in glass jar and refrigerate.

  6. *** Please read the review for recommendations to make this thicker. ***.
