How to store feijoa with sugar?
You have learned how to prepare feijoa for the winter with sugar. In this section, information about all the nuances of storing the workpiece. If you decide not to spoil the vitamin palette and have prepared a grated version of fresh berries without cooking, then in this case it will be necessary to prepare free space on the shelf of the refrigerator or in a cold cellar (basement) with a temperature of no higher than five degrees. Even when cooking a concentrated sweet mass, incidents often occur in the form of its fermentation, if the temperature regime is not observed correctly.
Determining how much feijoa is stored with sugar is not difficult. Practice has shown that even when stored in a refrigerator, such a stock remains fresh without visible changes in taste and quality for no more than three months. Jam, cooked on the stove, can be stored for a year.
Do you think the harvesting season is over and you can relax? Nothing like this! The recipe for feijoa with sugar for the winter without cooking is my favorite, because it is very simple.
Now is the time to stock up on delicious "cold jam". For him, you do not have to sterilize cans or pour boiling water over the lids. You do not need to stand at the stove and watch so that it does not burn. Without cooking, you can keep within half an hour, if you try.
The fragrant puree will perfectly stay in the refrigerator until the next harvest. The only thing that is required is to go to the market and buy a couple of kilograms of ripe emerald berries. A nice bonus: the yummy output is twice as much as the original product!
(function (w, d, n, s, t) (w [n] = w [n] ||; w [n] .push (function () (Ya.Context.AdvManager.render ((blockId: "RA -491967-2 ", renderTo:" yandex_rtb_R-A-491967-2 ", async: true));)); t = d.getElementsByTagName (" script "); s = d.createElement (" script "); s .type = "text / javascript"; s.src = "//an.yandex.ru/system/context.js"; s.async = true; t.parentNode.insertBefore (s, t);)) (this , this.document, "yandexContextAsyncCallbacks");
The feijoa season runs from October to mid-November. Do not miss!
How to choose a feijoa in the market or in the store?
The quality of the raw materials is the first thing to pay close attention to. If you take unripe or spoiled fruits, then the taste and consistency of the mixture will no longer be the same. Sometimes the work can even go down the drain.
Therefore, we slowly walk through the rows and carefully choose 😉
Many run past this nondescript berry. And completely in vain! Give it a try, but inspect the fruit carefully before purchasing. O good quality the following signs indicate the goods:
- There are no dark spots, scratches or other damage on the surface.
- There is no pronounced smell.
- The skin is green, neither dark nor yellow.
- The shape is closer to oval, the length is from 3 to 7 cm.
Taste the berries. Take the cutest one in your hand. Run your thumb over it and then apply light pressure. Ripe will not be too hard. There are no dense tubercles on its surface.
Often the halves are displayed in the window. If not, ask the seller to cut one piece. See what's inside her. The ready-to-eat fruit has a slightly yellowish translucent flesh. It smells good, and the consistency resembles jelly.
Once I hurried and bought an unripe feijoa. Dense grains of these tubercles were felt even when ground with sugar. They spoiled all the fun.
Most likely, you will not be allowed to choose the feijoa by the piece. Stop near the shop window with more large copies. Don't buy small ones that are too soft or hard. Avoid unevenly colored and dark greens.
Feijoa usually comes to us from Adler and Abkhazia, so I have no doubts about environmental friendliness.
In the northern regions of the country, imports from South Africa or other countries may come across. It is treated with chemistry. This calls into question the advisability of leaving the peel. In any case, do not be too lazy to thoroughly wash the berries.
What to do at home?
Before harvesting feijoa for the winter, it must be properly prepared. Failure to comply with the basic principles can lead to the fact that "pre-cooked jam" deteriorates ahead of time. Here are the main steps:
- Sort out fruits, discard spoiled, unripe.
- Rinse under running water.
- Place on a clean napkin and dry.
- Remove sepals and twigs.
- Cut into halves or quarters with a sharp knife, depending on the size.
If you did buy green fruits, it doesn't matter. Spread in one layer on a flat, dry surface. They will reach the desired state in a couple of days.
When washing, do not be too diligent to remove valuable anthocyanin deposits. Anthocyanins are water-soluble natural pigments. They are not synthesized in the body and have biological activity.
Preparation of cans and other equipment
The dishes must be glass. No plastic or metal! As a last resort, use a properly sized enamel pot.
Small screw-up jars are most convenient. I take liter, half liter or 0.75 liter. They should be rinsed in warm water and be sure to dry. We do the same with the lids. There is no need for sterilization.
If you plan to use a meat grinder, disassemble it and wash all parts well. Especially if the meat was minced before. Pour boiling water over and dry with a kitchen towel. I have a separate device for such purposes, which lies at the ready and is waiting in the wings.
Try to minimize the chance of water ingress, especially when wet. This increases the risk of spoilage.
What is the best way to grind feijoa?
Use your home appliances. A food processor is suitable for large volumes. If you have a desire, turn on the blender. And if you just want to prepare a sample portion, use a regular kitchen grater.
The last option is the most time consuming. Large pieces remain when rubbed. Not everyone likes them. I like it to be a uniform paste.
How to cook feijoa?
In countries where fruits ripen in abundance, they make not only sweet dishes, but also seasonings, marinades, side dishes. We will not complicate our life and will simply prepare vitamin jelly. And what remains - we'll eat it raw.
Classical uncooked feijoa recipe with sugar
The ingredients are limited to two items. You will need:
- 1 kg feijoa,
- 1 kg of sugar.
Cooking, step by step instructions:
- Wash the raw materials, dry, cut off the excess.
- Grind.
- Pour a kilo of sugar into a wide bowl, stir with fruit puree.
- Leave it for an hour or an hour and a half to completely dissolve the crystals.
- Stir again, pour into jars, close, refrigerate.
Feijoa with nuts
Let's not dwell on two ingredients, but add to them "zest" - nuts. But not ordinary ones, but (walking - walking like that!).
Recipe:
- Prepare the feijoa.
- Chop, mix with equal amount of sugar.
- Chop (or leave as is) 300-500 grams of cashews. Add to mixture. Keep in mind - this will add extra sweetness. Wash the nuts beforehand, bake them in a frying pan, cool them down.
- Stir, transfer to glass.
You will get a great dessert that you will not be ashamed to serve to guests. It can be eaten with toast for breakfast, or filled in sandbags for a party table. And most importantly - no cooking!
Feijoa recipe with ginger
Delicious option. I regard it as curative. I try to use ginger whenever possible to reduce the frequency of attacks.
Procedure:
- Peel the fresh root, wash, grate on a fine grater. I mince it with the feijoa.
- Measure out 2-3 tablespoons and add to the classic feijoa.
- Stir the ingredients.
I don't put citrus fruits in here. Berries and without them give sourness. Squeeze out lemon or lime juice if desired.
Puree from feijoa, grated with sugar: benefits
The vitamin supplement diversifies the menu, enriches it with new notes, and helps to survive the winter months without colds. In the absence of contraindications, it has a positive effect on health:
- Provides additional intake of ascorbic acid, B vitamins.
- Improves bowel function due to the presence of pectins.
- Strengthens the immune system.
- Supports the work of the heart and blood vessels.
- It has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial properties.
- Slows down the aging process (thanks to antioxidants).
In addition, silicon provides tremendous benefits to the skin of the face. The element strengthens nails, improves hair structure.
Contrary to popular belief, iodine in feijoa is not "off scale", but some ... 13.3: 2 = 6.75% of daily allowance... And then, if you eat 100 grams, which, of course, is undesirable. I wrote about this in more detail.
The absence of heat treatment allows the active substances to be preserved as much as possible. Do not get carried away (I know from myself how difficult it is to stop when the table is so yummy), and wrap up glasses. Enough 3-4 spoons a day.
Do not forget that half of the product is sugar. And this is "no ice" for those who monitor weight, control blood glucose or seek to reduce insulin resistance.
Suffering from autoimmune thyroiditis, it is necessary to take into account that the opinion of official medicine, excessive intake of iodine complicates the course of the disease. The product is contraindicated for those suffering from hyperthyroidism and diabetics. With hypothyroidism, dessert will not harm in the absence of AIT.
Storage rules
- Keep your work piece in a cool place.
- Avoid freezing.
- Protect from direct sunlight.
Why is the feijoa cold jam darkening?
When I first saw this, I was on my guard. After standing, the mass on top for some reason turned brown. But nothing terrible happened. The substances just oxidized on contact with air. This does not affect the nutritional value, because the bulk of the useful elements remained intact.
If you notice darkening, just stir with a spoon and eat to health.

Feijoa, mashed with sugar
There was a post on the site about the first summer berry - honeysuckle, and today I want to tell you about the last autumn berry - feijoa... Originally from South America, this fruit grows in the subtropics. In our post-Soviet space, it is grown in the Caucasus, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan. It appears on the shelves in late autumn. This year it appeared even a month earlier.
Feijoa fruits are extremely rich in iodine, here they can compete with seafood (and after all, not everyone loves seaweed), microelements, essential oils, vitamins, which makes them indispensable for nutrition in the autumn-winter period. Feijoa smells like strawberries, kiwi and pineapple at the same time. To choose the right feijoa, you need to cut it in half, if the flesh is transparent and looks like jelly, then the fruits are ripe. And if the fetus has Brown color, then, alas, it is already overripe and spoiled. But, as a rule, well-ripened feijoa fruits cannot be transported, so they are brought to us unripe, but do not be discouraged if you bought hard fruits, in a few days they will ripen in your house, become softer, without losing their beneficial properties.
Many housewives pass feijoa stalls in the market because they do not know how to cook it, while those who buy feijoa often eat only delicious sweet pulp and throw away the dense, slightly astringent skin. And in vain, because it is in the skin that most of the nutrients are contained. And in order to keep them, today we will prepare feijoa, grated with sugar(or raw feijoa jam).
Feijoa, mashed with sugar:
Wash the feijoa fruits, cut the tails, twist in a meat grinder. See how they turned yellow? This is from the large amount of iron contained in them.
Add sugar to the grated feijoa, mix well, then add chopped nuts. Everything, our tasty and healthy raw feijoa jam is ready, you can increase your immunity!
Let it stand a little on the table so that the sugar is completely dissolved, and then put it in jars and store in the refrigerator. Stored for a long time.
You can just eat it with tea, or pour it over cottage cheese, add it to yogurt or kefir, which you cooked in a slow cooker, or you can bake a grated pie filled with feijoa in the oven. In this case, do not forget to add a couple of tablespoons of starch to the filling!
Feijoa skins can be dried and added to tea when brewing.
The feijoa season does not last long, only a month or two, so hurry to the market to stock up on this valuable fruit!

Feijoa is the only fruit in which the amount of iodine is simply off scale. In addition, the exotic fruit has other trace elements, as well as acids and vitamins. Its fruits contain vitamin C, which is often used to prevent colds.
The benefits of this fruit are understandable, but it is also worth considering that feijoa also has contraindications that you should definitely know. Ripe feijoa fruits contain a lot of sugar, so it is forbidden to eat them for people suffering from diabetes mellitus and for those people who are prone to obesity, it is also not recommended to eat this fruit. In addition, before eating feijoa, you should definitely check it for freshness, since spoiled fruits can cause severe food poisoning.
In order to properly prepare mashed feijoa with sugar at home, you must follow the points below step by step instructions of this recipe photo. So, we begin to prepare an exotic preparation for the winter.
To make the feijoa preparation very tasty and aromatic, do not try to choose large-sized fruits, as they do not have the same taste as small fruits. You should also observe the proportions of the compound of the ingredients: for one kilogram of feijoa - two kilograms of granulated sugar.
Now you need to rinse the fruit thoroughly and cut off their dried tails. Then the fruits should be cut in half and made into a homogeneous mass. To do this, grind the fruit in a blender or twist the feijoa in a meat grinder. The main thing is to grind feijoa together with the skin, because it is in it that most of the vitamin composition is contained.
We spread the resulting exotic mass in a container and immediately add granulated sugar to it. Then mix the aromatic mixture thoroughly and send it to the refrigerator for twenty-four hours. For complete dissolution of sugar, the mass must be stirred periodically..
A day later, the fruit mixture was properly infused and absorbed all the granulated sugar. Now you can sterilize the jars and fill them with an unusual aromatic mass. Then you should close them with lids. A useful workpiece should be stored in any cool place in the future..
An exotic feijoa blank for the winter is ready.
Feijoa- These are evergreen small trees with juicy fruits, the taste and aroma of which are usually compared to strawberries and pineapple. The main value of feijoa is its high content of iodine, which plays a critical role in maintaining the health of the hormonal system and immunity. In terms of the amount of this trace element, a green berry can compete with fish and seafood. Feijoa came to Europe from Brazil at the end of the 19th century, but still many Europeans do not know how to eat it.
If you are one of them, then a recipe for cooking will come in handy feijoa with sugar- very fast, light and gentle, i.e. preserving all the properties of a valuable fruit. Not knowing the taste, we often bypass unfamiliar types of vegetables and fruits, and if you have never tried feijoa, then cast aside doubts and prepare an emerald dessert for tea according to this recipe. Feijoa with sugar will not only bring you the joy of new taste sensations, but will also bring invaluable health benefits!
Do not try to buy large fruits, as experience shows, they are not as fragrant as smaller ones. The main thing is that the skin of the feijoa is uniformly green, without dark spots and damage.
To get a good taste of feijoa, you should only eat fully ripe fruits. The trouble is that ripe feijoa are very soft, they are easily damaged and quickly deteriorate, so usually not quite ripe fruits are sold in the markets. Ripe feijoa fruits soft to the touch, with transparent and juicy pulp... If the pulp is brown, the fruit is spoiled, and if it is white, it is not ripe. It is better to buy a slightly unripe, hardy fruit - at room temperature it will ripen in a couple of days. When ripe, the fruit should be soft and its flesh should resemble jelly. The more ripe the feijoa, the more useful it is.
You can eat feijoa by cutting it in half, taking out the pulp with a spoon. It can be dipped whole in sugar, but the most popular way to use this fruit is to grind and combine with sugar.
Step-by-step photo recipe for making feijoa with sugar:
Be sure to rinse the feijoa well with cold water and discard it in a colander to drain the water. Many people think that the fruits should be doused with boiling water, but I think it is better not to expose them to heat.
Cut off a dry, hard inflorescence from each fruit, it will not be useful. The peel of the fruit is dense and tart, but also edible, it is in it that a large amount of pectins is concentrated, the content of which the product surpasses most fruits, so it does not need to be peeled. But if there are lesions or darkening on the skin, it is better to cut them off. Cut the feijoa in half - this way you can easily spot the spoiled fruit and throw it away.
Grind the feijoa with a blender or meat grinder.
Combine chopped fruits with sugar and stir.
Put the prepared homogeneous green mass in clean dry jars, close tightly and store in the refrigerator, where the "cold" jam can stand all winter. Do not be embarrassed if the top layer of the jam darkens, this indicates a high iodine content.
A favorite accompaniment to tea is homemade jam, including feijoa grated with sugar. By the way, such an unusual name for the fruit comes from the surname of the scientist Joanie de Silva Feijo (port. Joao da silva feijo), who in former times headed the Museum of Natural Sciences in Brazil and made a significant contribution to the selection and distribution of many famous modern world plants.
For lovers of sweet feijoa, grated with sugar, this is just a find - a combination of tasty and healthy is not so common. Feijoa is recommended for disruption of the gastrointestinal tract and its inflammatory processes... A very valuable property of feijoa is that its fruits do not cause allergic reactions and can be given to young children.

Feijoa is an oblong dark green berry that appears on our market in late autumn. The expression "small spool - but expensive" is very suitable for this berry.

How to stock up useful vitamins feijoa and stock up on them for the winter, read the recipe:
I really love fresh feijoa, it has a very interesting flavor combination: you can feel the aroma of strawberries with kiwi in it, besides, it tastes sour.
One of the most beneficial properties of feijoa is the iodine content, so it should be consumed by people with thyroid diseases, as well as those who suffer from kidney disease and inflammation of the gastric mucosa. Feijoa berries contain vitamin C, fiber, pectin, so it is useful to use them for vascular atherosclerosis and to strengthen and maintain immunity. Feijoa peel tastes tart, but it contains antioxidants that prevent aging and cancer.
When cooking, make sure that the flesh of the feijoa is white or transparent, the feijoa with brown flesh is a spoiled product.
Feijoa should be used very carefully for overweight people and those who suffer from diabetes mellitus.
And I suggest a simple and useful recipe: raw feijoa jam
For cooking jam first, wash the feijoa, wipe it off or let it dry.
Have feijoa cut off the tails, twist the berries in a meat grinder through the smallest grate and mix with sugar in the proportion:
Feijoa - 1 kg.
Sugar - 1.5 kg.
Somebodymakes feijoa jamwith sugar in a smaller proportion: 1: 1 and adds 100-200 gr. to a given portion. walnuts or hazelnuts.
The jam will stand a little and thicken.
You can close the jam in jars.
You need to boil it for 5 minutes, pour it into sterilized jars and roll up the lids. To prevent the jam from burning during cooking, you can add half a glass of water to the intended portion of the jam. First you need to prepare the sugar syrup: boil water, add sugar and let it simmer to dissolve the sugar. Then add the twisted berries and boil for 5 minutes.
But I prefer raw feijoa jam, since all useful properties are preserved in it.
Raw feijoa jam we store in the refrigerator under a closed lid.
Bon Appetit!
