Pineaple Guavas – 1lb

Description

Pineapple guavas are oblong and slightly egg-shaped. Pineapple guavas are dull-green or yellow-green, sometimes showing a red or orange blush. This fruit is very aromatic with tropical fruit nuances, even before the fruit is fully ripe. The flesh is thick, creamy white, granular and watery, similar to the texture of a pear. This flesh surrounds a translucent central pulp that encloses very small oblong edible seeds. Pineapple guavas are known for their strong tropical flavor with pineapple, guava, and strawberry tasting notes.

Pineapple guavas find themselves typically being classified as a dessert ingredient or as simply being eaten fresh out of hand. Cut the fruit in half and scoop out the inner flesh. Pineapple guavas are very well-suited to salad and savory recipes though and have many companion ingredients.
