How to Make Guava Puree

Step 1

Wash whole fruit and trim ends or any brown spots.

Step 2

Cut fruit in half and inspect each one to make sure there aren't any insects.

Step 3

Quarter whole fruit and place it inside a blender or food processor. Process for about 30 seconds on low speed or until the mixture is uniform in color and texture. Don't over-process.

Step 4

Working in batches, one cup at a time, press blended guava through a fine-mesh strainer positioned over a bowl.

Step 5

Compost or toss out guava seeds and transfer the puree to a glass or plastic container with a lid for storage.

Step 6

Store fresh guava puree in the refrigerator for up to five days or in the freezer for three months.
