Guava Paste
Discover the exquisite taste of Goya Guava Paste, a tropical delight that brings the essence of Central America to your table. Cultivated in the lush landscapes beyond its native lands, guava is celebrated for its unique pear-like shape and a spectrum of flesh colors from vibrant red and pink to pristine white, each dotted with tiny, edible seeds.
Rich in essential minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and iron, guava stands out for its high potassium content, offering notable diuretic properties. Its fiber richness (6g/100g) is particularly gentle on the digestive system, promoting healthy intestinal transit and making it a powerful ally in dietary elimination processes. Remarkably, guava is a powerhouse of vitamin C, boasting an average of 243 mg/100g, which can peak up to 900 mg/100g. This concentration surpasses that of citrus fruits fivefold and nearly triples that of kiwi, ensuring that a mere 40g serving fulfills the daily recommended intake. The fruit’s antioxidant prowess is underscored by significant polyphenol content, particularly concentrated in its peel.
Culinary Versatility of Guava
Guava’s adaptability in both sweet and savory dishes makes it a versatile ingredient in the culinary world. Raw and diced, it adds a refreshing twist to green salads, pairs wonderfully with diced salmon and green apple, or enhances the flavor profile of fish, poultry, and white meats when cooked. Its compatibility with lemon and chili pepper or as a pureed base for delicate sauces—simmered with onions, vinegar, sugar, and a blend of spices like allspice and cinnamon—highlights its culinary flexibility. Guava paste, in particular, achieves gastronomic excellence when accompanied by fresh goat cheese, offering a sublime taste experience.
