ABOUT Guava Jelly RECIPE

Traditional recipe of preserving the winter guavas.

Instructions

Wash and wipe the guavas.
Boil water in a deep pan. Add diced guavas and boil for more 15 minutes. When the fruit becomes tender turn off the gas. Line a strainer with 4 layers of cheese cloth and strain the pup and liquid into a pan. Make sure you get a clear liquid.
Boil this concentrate with sugar in a thick bottomed pan on low heat. Do a plate test once the liquid begins to thicken. If the jelly sets easily turn off the heat or else boil till you get a proper texture.
Add lemon juice after 5 minutes and pour the jelly in glass containers to set.
It can be stored for more than a month in the refrigerator.
