Guava Jelly

Pick over, wash, and pare guavas. Slice fruit and set to boil with just enough water to cover. Simmer until fruit is soft and seeds drop from pulp. Strain over night through jelly bag. In the morning, measure and add juice of one lime to each quart of juice. Boil rapidly until juice has boiled down about one fourth, which can be told by the lowered ring on the inside of kettle. Then add sugar, one cup for each cup of juice, and boil until it drops thick from the spoon and is ready to jell.
