Guavas are related to eucalypts. And there the similarity ends. The thin skinned fruit can pucker your mouth if it is not quite ripe but it delivers vitamin C with a punch - 7 times the daily quota in a 100g serving - as well as vitamin A. The juice is a great mixer with other fruit juices - apple, pear, tropical juices - or you can serve the whole fruit fresh to scoop out with a teaspoon, with cheese, poached lightly, or pureed and frozen in sorbets and icecreams. Its quince-like gritty flesh and seeds may not be liked by everyone, but it does have a delicious fragrance and a very exotic almost-strawberry flavour.
