What to do with all these guava? - dreamoutloud - 03-04-2015 Hi! I have a tree that has guava all ripening at once. I would love to preserve some, but am not really sure how. Any thoughts? Thanks so much! Laura Its a colorful life! RE: What to do with all these guava? - Lee M-S - 03-04-2015 I wash mine, cut them in chunks, then blend (in blender or food processor) with some water. I sieve out the seeds and freeze in ice cube trays. ><(((*< ... ><(("< ... ><('< ... >o> RE: What to do with all these guava? - opihikao - 03-04-2015 Guava Jam! [:p] Tutu's old recipe: (*No need pectin) Ingredients: 6 cups guavas, peeled, 1/2-inch cubes 4 + 2 cups water 3 cups sugar 2 tsp lemon juice 1/4 tsp salt In a saucepan over medium high heat; combine guavas, 4 cups of water, sugar, lemon juice and salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium; allow to low boil 30 minutes. Remove from heat; let stand 10-15 minutes to cool. When cool enough to handle; remove seeds by pressing through a sieve back into saucepan on medium high heat. Add remaining 2 cups of water and bring back to a boil. Reduce heat to low; allow to simmer 30 minute; stirring until thickened. Remove from heat; and skim off any foam. Makes about Three (3) pints Enjoy! P.S. If you mix the jam with BBQ sauce or spread it plain over seasoned ribs or chicken, it's delicious! RE: What to do with all these guava? - terracore - 03-04-2015 Run them through a juicer, cook juice for about 30 minutes, cool to room temperature, strain through new panty hose, add sugar and water, pitch yeast, ferment, clarify in refrigerator. Drink. ETA straining. RE: What to do with all these guava? - Lee M-S - 03-05-2015 Terracore, is that a "pinch" yeast? To make it ferment? quote: ><(((*< ... ><(("< ... ><('< ... >o> RE: What to do with all these guava? - lavalava - 03-05-2015 Pitch a pinch in there! RE: What to do with all these guava? - terracore - 03-05-2015 I don't use a yeast starter so I usually use a big spoonful of yeast RE: What to do with all these guava? - Kenney - 03-05-2015 Speaking of fruit jelly/wine, Our Jaboticaba tree is loaded this year! I am about to embark on a Jaboticaba experiment. Haven't tried making Jaboticaba Jelly for eons, and when I did, it was more of a delicious syrup than Jelly. (fantastic on French toast/pancakes!) Found several recipes on Google. Does anyone have a tried and true formula for Jaboticaba jelly? We regularly make Lilikoi, Hawaiian Chili Pepper, and White Pineapple jelly/jam, and I'd be glad to trade recipes. Also made a Meyer Lemon Marmalade this year using the skins for their pectin. We enjoy them all, and they make wonderful gifts for family and friends! RE: What to do with all these guava? - PunaMauka2 - 03-05-2015 quote: excellent! if i could suggest a few relatively minor optional additions which would likely tremendously improve the quality of the end product. - a glass carboy or other sanitizer-friendly jug type container into which an air lock can be fitted. - said airlock (not expensive, a very simple plastic mechanism available from any brew supply) - food grade sanitizer (also available from brew supply) - 1 package champagne yeast (so much better than bread yeast for this purpose) boil everything, let cool undisturbed, then pitch yeast after carefully transferring to sanitized fermenting container. RE: What to do with all these guava? - terracore - 03-05-2015 quote: I make our guava wine in 2 liter batches with EZ caps and EZ Caps yeast which address all those issues... I guess I should have mentioned that. |
