Fresh Guava Jam with Garlic and Zest

This unique vegan jam combines the tropical sweetness of fresh guavas with the savory kick of garlic and the bright zestiness of lemon. It's a delightful spread that adds a burst of flavor to your breakfast or snack time.

Ingredients:

• 1 kg fresh guavas, washed, peeled, and seeds removed
• 400g granulated sugar
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• Zest of 1 lemon

Instructions:

Cut the guavas that have been peeled into little chunks

Dice the guavas and put them in a large saucepan

Add the sugar, lemon juice, minced garlic, and lemon zest

Stir the mixture often over medium-low heat for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until the sugar melts and the guavas break down

Take the mixture off the heat when it gets thick enough to jam consistency

Give the jam a little time to cool down before putting it in clean jars

Before putting the jars in the fridge, make sure the lids are tight and let them cool completely

You can put the fresh guava jam with garlic and zest on crackers, toast, or use it as a tasty topping!
