Serving Ideas
Guavas can be peeled and halved to use in recipes much like pears: poach them in wine or a spiced syrup.
Cook guava to make a compote or sauce (you may want to strain out the seeds). Then use on top of a smoothie bowl, oatmeal, pancakes or desserts.
Add guava to juices or smoothies!
Slice them thin to be added on top of cakes, tarts, meringues or pavlovas.
They can be chopped and added to fruit or green salads. Using a combination of pink and white fleshed guava would add a pretty finish!
For a change, pack guava as a fun snack on the go.
