Guava Season

There was a big storm last week which brought down a big branch of the guava tree, laden with ripe and semi-ripe fruit.  Got the small jar collection and jam pan up from under the house and boiled up a potful of fruit with some water, strained it through my improvised jelly bag and boiled up briskly to setting point.  As usual it is a lovey ruby colour and has a tangy flavour.

It is delicious on fresh bread with banana or cheese,  or with any meat where you would use  cranberry sauce.
