I ’m back … back with another formula to take down that new harvest of feijoa this week . I ’ve been quite revel the feijoa salsa I madelastweek , but truth be told , I need a little break from feijoa - feeding as that last jar is still asterisk at me every time I launch the fridge . So , I guess this would be the perfect clock time to introduce an easy style to preserve that next batch of yield , and one that extend a bit more versatility than just jam .

Thing is , I may be a little timeworn of feijoas right now , but in a few month ’ time I know I ’ll miss that distinctive pineapple - strawberry guava savour . Canned feijoa take care of that craving enough that I ’m contented to look another two seasons for my tree to raise more yield .

So where would you use canned feijoa ? Well , anywhere you ’d use canned fruit , really … on top of oatmeal or pancakes , yogurt or bungalow high mallow ; as a woof for Proto-Indo European or cakes ; mixed into smoothies or sangrias ; and even chopped into chutneys or sauce . Do n’t discard the syrup , either — the fruit infusion makes a tasty mixer for cocktails or sodas . In fact , you may make a Bellini - inspired ice using feijoa syrup and feijoa bush puree . Or , freeze the syrup and make feijoa cubes to drop into iced teatime ( my pet ! ) . You could even use the syrup to make icing for cupcakes or elf .

I in reality plan to put up a big batch of feijoas for the Boy Scout - style Dutch oven cobbler I broil on every camping tripper ! ( Muchbetter than the tin peaches I ’ve been buying from the store . )
