Instructions
- Cut the top and bottom part of the guavas and then cut each into quarters.
- Place them in a pot and add water and lemon juice. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook for 15 minutes or until quite soft and easy to mash.
- Using an immersion or regular blender, pulse into a puree. You can also use potato masher or slotted spoon to mash it.
- Run the mixture into a sieve to separate the seeds. Return the puree to the pot and add sugar and salt.
- Cook over medium-low heat stirring every now and then until it thickens, about 20-30 minutes.
- Transfer to clean glass jars while still hot and seal with the lid. Leave them on the kitchen counter to cool down completely.
- Once it has cooled down, you can use it immediately or refrigerate and it will last for weeks.
Notes
- To sterilize glass jars for storing, place the jars and lids in a pot with water enough to cover them. Boil for about 10 minutes. Remove from pot and allow to air dry.
