Guava - Pink Flesh

Pink flesh guava is a vibrant and aromatic tropical fruit known for its deep pink, tender interior and rich, sweet, and slightly tangy flavour. The skin is typically green and may have a yellowish hue when ripe. This variety is not only a feast for the eyes but also a powerhouse of nutrition, rich in vitamin C, dietary fibre, and antioxidants like lycopene, which contribute to its distinctive colour.

Pink flesh guava can be eaten whole, much like an apple, including its skin and seeds. The skin, though edible, can be peeled for a softer texture. The flesh can be enjoyed raw, diced into salads, or blended into smoothies and juices. The seeds are edible but can be removed if desired.

The sweet and fragrant profile of pink flesh guava makes it a delightful ingredient in a variety of dishes. It's fantastic in fruit salads, lending a tropical touch and vibrant colour. Pink guava works well in desserts, such as mousses, and ice creams or as a topping for pavlovas. In savoury applications, it can be used to create exotic salsas and sauces, adding a unique twist to grilled meats or seafood. Additionally, its natural sweetness and striking colour make it ideal for jams, jellies, and preserves.
