About Guava sauce, cooked
Guava sauce made from cooked guava is a simple, lightly sweet fruit puree with a tropical flavor and a pink-to-coral color depending on the guava variety used. Cooking softens the fruit and breaks it down into a smooth or chunky sauce, concentrating the flavor while keeping the natural sugar level moderate. Fiber is genuinely good relative to most fruit sauces, since guava is naturally high in it. Fat and protein are minimal. It can serve as a condiment alongside roasted pork or chicken, as a spread on toast, or as a base for drinks and desserts. Guava sauce is common in Caribbean and Latin American cooking.
