Red guava has a slightly hard texture with a sweet taste. Usually red guava fruit is processed into juice, because this fruit is believed to increase the number of platelets.
let's make pickled red guava which is spicy, sweet and fresh. the ingredients we need to make pickled guava are :
Red guava 1 kg
sugar 100 grams
salt 1 teaspoon
tamarind 1 teaspoon
red chili 5 piece
water 1 liter
how to make it step by step that is:
First we will make the sugar solution with the following steps :
The first step: pour water into the pot / place to boil.
The step two: put sugar into a pot of water
The third step: put salt and tamarind into the pot contains sugar solution
The fifth step: boil the sugar solution until it boils
After the sugar solution boils, turn off the stove and let the sugar solution cool down.
Second, we will process the red guava.
The first step: wash the red guava and red chili.
The second step: check the guava skin, I don't peel the smooth guava skin
if the skin is not smooth and many black spots, we should peel the skin to reduce the spots.
The third step: cut the red guava into several pieces
The fourth step: separate the seeds,
the unused part of the seeds to make pickled guava, we can use to make guava juice, the liver part contained in the seeds is the part that contains a lot of vitamin A and vitamin C.
The fifth step: arrange the red guava that we have cut into a bowl
The sixth step: cut the red chili according to your taste
then put the pieces of red chili into a bowl filled with guava.
The seventh step: it's time to put the cold sugar solution into a bowl containing pieces of red guava.
We put the pickled guava in the refrigerator for an hour so that the spices seep into the guava.
While waiting for the guava in the fridge, I will process the seeds that we didn't use earlier to make juice.
I will put the juice in the fridge.
After an hour, the spicy, sweet and fresh red guava juice and pickled guava are ready to be served. I can't wait to eat the fruit. The best time to enjoy the pickled guava is after 24 hours, now the seasoning has completely absorbed into the guava.
please try to make pickles that are delicious and nutritious for our health.
