To Serve the Guava Uncooked

Peel the fruit, selecting if possible the nearly seedless varieties, and where the seeds are virtually nil slice across the fruit and serve with sugar and cream or a little wine and spice with sugar. Where the seeds form an objectionable centre, slice lengthwise or halve after peeling and scrape or scoop away the seeds from the inner side before serving. The scooped-out halves of the larger varieties may be filled with chopped nuts, cocoanut shredded, candied fruits, whipped cream or meringue, the Kaki and orange juice, and innumerable other variations for special occasions.
