About Guava nectar, canned
Guava (Psidium guajava) is a fragrant tropical fruit with a thin green or yellow rind and soft, sweet flesh that ranges from creamy white to vivid pink or red, dotted with small edible seeds. Its perfume is unmistakable, often filling a whole room, and the entire fruit, skin and all, is edible. Guava is a genuine nutritional standout, packing several times more vitamin C than an orange, along with plenty of fiber, vitamin A, potassium, folate, and antioxidants like the lycopene in pink varieties.
It is eaten fresh and sliced, sometimes with a sprinkle of salt or chili, blended into juices and smoothies, and cooked down into the thick, sweet guava paste that pairs famously with cheese. The fruit also flavors jams, jellies, candies, pastries, and tropical drinks. A ripe guava gives slightly to gentle pressure and smells sweet and floral, while hard fruit is best left to ripen on the counter, then refrigerated.
Eat the crunchy seeds right along with the flesh - they are perfectly good and add extra fiber.
